BLOG STYLE with Nicole Simone Edelen curvesonabudget.com IG: @curvesonabudget13 TW: curvesonabudget FB: Curves on a Budget What inspired you to start a blog? I’ve always loved posting photos of my outfits and I’ve always been very money conscious and noticed there wasn’t really a blog that emphasized fashion on a budget so I wanted to fill that void. Not to mention there aren’t many bloggers my size so I think I killed two birds with one stone. How would you describe your fashion aesthetic? Simple, practical and sleek. Since I started blogging it’s definitely evolved as I tried new things. It started as monochromes, but I’m adding a lot more color to my wardrobe. This year is all about experimenting and I’m really excited! What spring trends are you most looking forward to wearing? Stripes because it’s never a first choice when I pick out clothes and pleats... they’re feminine without being over the top. Trends could be a little challenging for some women, what is your advice to women looking to experiment with their look?
