We caught up with Phoebe for a chat about her wardrobe, inspiration and Youtube.

What first made you want to start a Youtube channel?

'I always had an interest in makeup and fashion from a really young age; I always cared about what I looked like. I came across Youtube one day after searching how to do certain eyeshadow looks and came across this whole array of Youtubers that did videos on fashion and beauty such as: Beauty Crush (Samantha Maria), Tanya Burr, Bubz Beauty and lots more."

Who was your first style icon?

"I never really looked up to any celebrities and their fashion but I look at fashion bloggers so much for inspiation. I guess I didn't really start taking inspiration until recently, but a couple of my favourites are Lizzy Hadfield, Cocobeautea (Hannah), Megan Ellaby, RopesofHolland (Lindsey) and SunbeamsJess."

What is your go to outfit?
