When did you first fall in love
with fashion?
I couldn’t pinpoint when exactly,
but you could say from a young
age my weekly pocket money
would go towards a fashion
magazine of some sort. When I
grew up it moved over to fashion
blogs, but I definitely still fuel
my magazine obsession every
now and then. As soon as I got
my first job shopping definitely
become a bit of a hobby… So it’s a
good thing now my hobby is on a
budget!
People seem to think that being
a blogger isn’t that much work,
but you put some serious hours
into A Broke Girls Blog. What
does it take to run your blog?
Honestly, I never realized how
much work went into it either
until I started A Broke Girl’s Blog.
Studying full-time, working part
time and managing the site and
social media, it can get quite
overwhelming at times, but if
you love what you’re doing then
it’s not “work”. I do a lot over the
weekend, so that I am prepared
with content during the week.
Behind A Broke Girl’s Blog there
is a lot of bargain hunting instore and online, and liaising with
appropriate labels and stores.
Then there is the photos and
writing the blog posts, whilst also
posting on social media every
day. There is a lot to do, and there
are times I’ve pushed uni and
sleep to the side to get it done,
but I remember why I started and
how much fun I have doing it and
it gets me through it all!
What would you say is the best
part about being a fashion
blogger?
I feel like my shopping is justified
(haha). I love that I am sharing
my own style in my own way (on
a budget) and that people like it
and get involved. That is probably
the most rewarding thing of all!
