Recently, a sweet and talented blogger/event planner friend of mine Kim, the gorgeous lady behind Yes, Wear That nominated me for a fun blogger to blogger award called the “Liebstar Award”. She came up with 10 great questions that I am answering below and thought it would be a fun way for you all to get to know me a little better!
1. What’s your biggest guilty pleasure?
I’m going to go ahead and just admit it… the Kardashians. I can’t help it. I just followed Kylie on snapchat so I think that solidifies it (my snapchat is zoe_knamey). Oh, and I’m a Belieber now, so there’s that too. Please don’t judge me.
2. You get to spend a “girl’s day” (spa, shopping, mimosas) with one celebrity, who do you pick and why?
SJP… wait no, JLo… no, the Olsen twins! Yes! Two for one and we can shop in the petite sections together.
3. If you could travel anywhere in 2016, where would it be?
I really, really want to visit France and Italy. Paris, Annecy, Venice, Cinque Terre, Tuscany, are all on my must see list.
4. Without giving away too many secrets, what’s the best blogging advice you have received?
I think the best advice I’ve gotten in general is just to work hard at whatever it is your doing. Some blogging advice I’ve read recently that I really appreciated was from this series of articles by Poor Little It Girl.
5. When you were a little kid, what did you want to be “when you grew up”?
It was always a “rockstar”. Not a singer, (and not that I can even sing) but I was convinced that I was going to be a rockstar. I don’t even know if I really knew what a rockstar really was when I was little.
6. City or country?
Both.. but not actually country-country. Like, suburbs country? Is that a thing? I love gardening and having a yard and a decent sized house, but then I love going out in the city, being around that kind of energy and I especially love going to new restaurants. That’s the nice thing about Pittsburgh, the surrounding towns aren’t too far from the main hub of the city and you can almost have the best of both worlds.
7. If you were a Disney character, who would you be and why?
Tinkerbell. She’s little but she can be a feisty one.
8. How would your best friend describe you?
Loyal, I’m the friend that will always have your back.
9. What new blog ideas are you throwing around for 2016?
Sometimes I seem to have a million ideas at once and then need to streamline my thoughts. Right now I’m trying to focus on keeping a clean aesthetic. I’m also really making an effort to work on my writing and photography for this year.
10. Favorite movie quote?
“I’m not a regular mom, I’m a cool mom” And basically every line from Mean Girls. I need these pencils in my life.
So now that you got to know me a little better, I get to introduce you to and nominate some bloggers that you should definitely be following along with. They are Ghazi from Dudley & LuLuRose and Jessa from Wavy Alabaster -plus don’t forget to check out Yes, Wear That!
