BLOG OF THE WEEK, Lucine's Blog

Author: Lucine Blog: Lucine's Blog COUNTRY: Tallinn, Estonia Interview How did you get the idea to create your blog? I got inspired by Popular Fashion Societies. I used to visit different kind of fashion blogs. Then I thought to myself why not to try? People were interested in my life and personal opinion on fashion. So I decided to create my personal page where I could share my looks, ideas, vision, lifestyle and own styling skills. How would you describe your style? My friends say I´m always elegant. I would say my style varies. More often it is classic and smooth. I don´t wear a lot of jewellery, although I love 70ies. I love heels and try to stay chic all the time, meanwhile I never spend much money on clothing. I love paring some mannish garments, yet staying feminine. What other blog, if you have one, inspires you in a special way and would you recommend? Besides LOOK 10 of course. I have an old good friend Inga from http://intriguemenow.co.uk I never thought that growing up we would be both addicted to fashion. At the moment, she´s one of those people whos style I consider to be perfect and very inspiring. Who or what has been your greatest fashion inspiration and do you feel influenced by the trends? I follow the trends, but never been influenced by them. I never wear anything if it doesn´t suit me well. For example, one of my greatest fashion inspiration is Carrie Bradshow (SJP). Her styling and clothes impressed me, but I would never dare to try them on me, cause that is not my „cup of tea“. Do you think fashion blogs might influence big brands and of course designers and creators? Fashion is Art and it´s unreachable. Style bloggers convey a demacratic way of fashion that anyone can try. Ever since blogging became popular, people started to share their opinions on different products with millions of people. Many fashion bloggers managed to distinguish themselves as style icons. Today different designers have been inspired by the popular bloggers, but some global fashion brands still use them as a tool to promote their products. How do you value the fashion market in your country? Do you think it's on an international level? Estonia is a small country, the fashion market cannot reach an international level because of the few competition. The purchasing power here is not as big as in Western countries, yet many international brands keep entering the market. Are you now with any project in hands that can lead you to where you want to be in the fashion world? Since my blog has been created, I´ve started to receive many propositions to write articles about fashion and trends. I´ve been interviewed several times on the radio about fashion blogging. At the moment I´m working on a very interesting project which will be launched very soon. Follow my Blog ;) Finally, would you like to add anything else or what’s the one question you wish people asked you but you’ve never had the opportunity to answer? I would like to wish everyone to be more confident and creative. Blogging is the best way to share ideas and interests. It gives many opportunities to make dream come true and become a bit closer to world fashion industry. And that’s it, thank you very much and all the best to your blog.
