1) Hello Samantha, can you tell us a little about yourself?
Hi! Of course, I was born and raised in NYC and even though I work full time as a consultant, what makes me happiest, is being able to share my style and fashion to hopefully inspire others.
2) What inspired you to start your blog?
I graduated college a year earlier than I expected and was encouraged by friends to start a blog to share my fashion, beauty and lifestyle advice with them!
3) Living in New York City, what trends are you most excited about for fall?
Layering! I think by the end of summer I start to really miss being able to wear long sleeves and articles of clothing such as vests and scarves on top, and really have fun mixing and matching with different things.
4) What is a typical day for you?
There isn’t really a typical day for me which I LOVE. I think that that’s what keeps things interesting.
5) Many bloggers today solely blog for a living. What drives you to maintain a 9 to 5?
I love my job--I’m pretty analytical and my 9 to 5 allows me to do that, while being a blogger allows me to be more creative. They balance each other out, which is my favorite part.
6) What are some of your favorite jewelry pieces?
Oh that’s hard. Sometimes I love a good statement piece but usually I’m big on dainty jewelry. I love how simple and understated it is, and that way you can layer and stack them too!
7) Where do you usually buy your jewelry from?
All over the place. I don’t really have one place where I consistently buy jewelry from. It’s really whatever catches my eye..
"Wear what makes you feel confident. "
Wear what makes you feel confident. The kind of jewelry and how you wear your jewelry is so subjective, and I always find that the way each person accessorizes is so unique and really shows a little of who they are.
9) Last but not least, what are your future plans for your blog and life?
Good question! I have quite a few trips coming up this year so lots and lots of exciting things coming very soon.Want to read more? Follow Samantha Nie on (@samanthanie) or her blog.
