Girl of the Blogosphere: Angela

Name: Angela
City: Fullerton
Occupation: Freelance Writer

Who is your fashion inspiration?
I can't say that one specific person is my specific inspiration. I've gleaned inspiration & influence from so many different designers, bloggers and models off duty. Currently, along with the rest of the world, I'm loving Kelly from the Glamourai. Her daily attire is so versatile and eclectic, yet her style is consistently chic and refreshingly her.

What is one thing you always carry in your bag?
My pink (in support of breast cancer awareness) pepper spray.

What is your current favourite fashion trend?
The maxi skirt. I love everything maxi- sheer, lace, jersey, or anything else. Maxi skirts and dresses are simple, fuss-free and comfortable. What's not to love about them?

What is the current trend you dislike the most?
I honestly can't think of a single trend I dislike.

Why did you start your blog?
I had just taken a hiatus from full time work and figured I could use the creative outlet to write and share what I love about fashion.

How would you describe your style?
I would describe my style as ever evolving and sort of "all-over-the-place." I dress according to my mood, so sometimes I'll be in tattered boyfriend jeans and bright coral flats, and the next day I can be found in a maxi sweater dress and boots.

What is one thing you are dying to buy this winter?
As many faux fur jackets and vests as possible! I cannot get over them. They amp up any outfit to the nth degree.

What is the most expensive thing you have bought?
It probably wasn't for myself.

What is the least expensive thing you have bought?
A $9.95 H&M sweater dress. Its bright colors are tacky, but that's what makes me love it even more!

What is one thing that you regret buying?
Absolutely nothing now, since I return my "regrettables" right away.
If you could meet one person from the fashion industry/ a fashion icon who would it be?
Anna Wintour

What is your favourite vacation destination?
Ecuador. I've been there I think 4 times, and I can't ever get over the people I met there. If I could save up enough time and money ever, I'd go there.

What is one totally random fact you want others to know about you?
I absolutely abhor birds and a concentration of dots (i.e. sesame seeds on a strawberry, pencil punctures on an eraser).
