I was bored and I needed something creative to do. It sort of just happened.

Connecting with people and inspiring young girls.

People telling me I've helped them and they've carried on because of my story.

 

4. How do you come up with ideas for videos?

 

Everyday life really. I'm inspired by the most random things. Mainly street style and other women in the world.

 

5. If you hadn't started YouTube what do you think you would be doing?

 

I have absolutely no idea. I would like to think something else creative but a part of me things I would slightly be off the rails haha.

 

6. What would you change about YouTube?

 

The anonymity & the hate. Although it doesn't bother me that much anymore, I just don't like cowards.

 

7. What advice would you give to people starting YouTube?

 

Be yourself, stay true to you, remember who you are and remember where you came from. Know your audience and have a passion for what you do.

 

8. Does YouTube sometimes get too much?

 

Yes.. I crash and burn every few months and I need a few days break.

 

9. What would you change about your channel?

 

Erm, probably the background. I would love a more professional set up.

 

10. Which one is your favourite, blogging or vlogging?

 

It all depends on how I feel. Right now I love blogging!

Both. I don't ever stick to the same thing.

MAC.. How cliche!

 

14. Favourite clothing brand?

 

Asos & Topshop!

 

15. Favourite time of year?

 

Spring mornings and summer nights.. However I do like listening to the rain and snuggling up in bed. I can't decide.

I can never answer this question because I literally love SO many. One that always sticks with me is "Love is louder than the pressure to be perfect"

 

17. When you go to Turkey what is your favourite thing to do?

 

Lounge around and sunbathe lol. Is that bad?
