Could you introduce yourself in a few lines so that our community can get to know you better? How would you define your style/your world as a fashion influencer?
My name is Lily, I'm 28 and I live in Bordeaux. On lilylovesfashion, I share my daily looks as well as my lifestyle, fashion, travel and beauty favorites.
Instagram is a little bubble of lightness in everyday life where I share positive things like a date with girlfriends.
Style-wise, I'm more of a bohemian-rock girl, but I like to change to suit my mood.
Blog creation date lilylovesfashion ?
I opened my @lilylovesfashion account 3 years ago.
What triggered you and why did you embark on the adventure of fashion influencers and the world of social networking?
Originally, I hadn't planned to start blogging. I started sharing my everyday outfits with people who had the same tastes and passions as me.
Little by little, I got hooked. I love discovering small French designers, travels and favorites, and sharing them with my community.
It's a real daily human exchange that brings me a lot.
How much time do you spend on your articles or youtube videos? Production, editing...? Do you have any organizational tips for other bloggers and others? youtubers fashion influencer ?
I take little moments to connect in the morning, at lunchtime and in the evening. I take the time to properly frame my photos, which I post from day to day, and above all to respond to all comments whenever possible.
Which community are you targeting?
Those who want to read me ;)... I think the people who are interested in my photos are in my 18-35 age bracket, mostly working women who love fashion.
Where do you find most of your inspiration? And which social networks do you use most?
My favorite network is Instagram. I think photos are enough to express and show the essential. Especially when it comes to fashion. I also really like Pinterest for decorating inspiration.
How do you manage your time, between your family, your work, your social networks and your blog as a fashion influencer?
I try to compartmentalize each activity, even if it's sometimes difficult. It's important to get organized to avoid being overloaded, but all the activities are intertwined, because they feed off each other and that's also what gives Instagram its charm.
Did one collaboration/partnership stand out for you more than others? And if so, which one?
J’aime particulièrement les collaborations avec les marques françaises. Pour moi, les petites créatrices sont l’avenir de la mode, car elles lui apportent de la fraîcheur et de l’innovation.
What would you like to undertake or develop next?
I'd like to open a platform to list my favorite travel and restaurant addresses, as well as my fashion purchases.
Do you produce your own visuals and photos? And if so, what equipment do you use?
I take all my photos using my IPhone 7 and adjust them a little using instagram and VSCO.
What advice would you give to other fashion influencers in the community?
To do things out of passion and the desire to share, as you would with friends. To be sincere in your approaches and collaborations.
And what would you say is your main secret to success?
I don't know if we can call it a success, but I'm proud of the relationships I have with my community. I try to be approachable and not get in over my head.
What does being a fashion influencer mean to you on a daily basis?
Lots of good cheer. It's like having a group of girlfriends with you all day long.
