YES! This year Singapore Blog Award is back again, louder and stronger. I am very proud and honored to be one of the top 10 finalists of Singapore Best Fashion Blog category. I had an E- interview with Omy.sg right at the beginning of voting period. Hopefully, you can have a better and closer look at my blog, something you might not know about. ;)
1. How do you feel about being one of finalists in Singapore Blog Award 2012?
Absolutely happy, very honored and very exciting. Being one of finalists also gives me a lot of motivation, encouragement and also challenge to blog better, harder, try to be up to date, useful and inspirational blog for my readers. I'm very proud of being one of the 10 finalists.
2. When did you start blogging and what drew you to it? Where do you get inspiration for your blog content?
I started blogging in 2006 mainly about my daily life, relationship, motivational stories and my passion in dancing. Only until November 2011, I started blogging about fashion simply because many of my friends encouraged me to do it. They said "You have good fashion sense, you should blog about it and share with people". So I did and every time I shared a photo of my daily outfit, there are many people liked it.
I get inspiration from many random stuffs in life and from my readers too. But there is one thing I have to say is I'm pretty much influenced by dancing. And I make my own dance costumes, so it's not very difficult to relate to daily fashion.
3. How do you feel about the other finalists in your category this year? How do you think you will fare compared to them.
I've read their blogs all actually and I can say they are very strong, experienced and pretty popular while I'm like a new kid on the block *laugh*. Some bloggers even have 10,000 to 80,000 followers on their social network so they will have a great support and stand a very good chance to win. However, I think my blog is strong too in terms of content and layout and it's very different from others. It's purely my own fashion style in my daily life. I create different looks for different days, which accessories should go with which outfit, how to have DIY (do-it-yourself) fashion, etc...on my blog or even on my Youtube channel. I think that is more personal and useful to my readers. Whoever read my blog can expect something simple, easy to achieve. At the end of the day, my message to my readers is "You don't have to carry a Dior dress, Louis Vuitton bag, Christian Louboutin shoes to be stylist or classy. It's the matter of how you wear your outfit".
4. Give a reason why readers should visit your blog and vote for you?
Even though I started blogging about fashion not long ago (6 months since Nov 2011) but I'm very happy with what I have achieved so far. Being selected as finalist of Singapore Best Fashion Blog this year and being featured on Polyvore's Editorial Blog (It's one of the most popular fashion community websites) are my great achievement, encouragement and motivation so far. That's the solid reason why you should read my blog
Besides, I love inspiring people and making them feel confident, beautiful and I am delivering that message through my blog. As professional Latin dance instructor for more than 10 years, I have trained many people to look good and to feel good about themselves and I feel motivated every time I see their improvement. I guess, that makes people come back to read my blog because they find it useful and interesting. Plus, I'm a super friendly person to talk to *big smile*.
