First Guest Post : Fictious Fashion

Today is my blog's anniversary, Yes we have completed one successful year !! *Yayyyyy*
I am thankful to all my lovely readers and supporters for all the love they have shown and also invite them to my first giveaway ever which I will introduce in second half of the day.

Starting with my list of surprises for the day, first I have a guest post on blog. I lover reading her blog, there is so much energy and fresh vibe on her blog. I prepared a questionnaire for her to fill which I must say, she has answered with complete honesty and truth.
So here I introduce you to gorgeous and fun loving, Akanksha Chawla from Fictitious Fashion.

About Her :

• About Yourself: If you hear a girl humming a funny tune, smiling on the streets for no reason, hogging on food while counting the calories then you’ve most likely found me. Apart from casual cravings and laughter, I love to write (blogs and articles), cook different cuisines and try things for the first time!
• High point in life :  There have been many. Everytime a package (online shopping/sponsor) comes, I’m high; everytime I see food, I get wide-eyed and everyday when I think about my dream city- New York, I get high on life.. So its basically everyday, besides these silly things!
• Low point in life: When there is no me-time. Also, there was one biggest low point in my life when I couldn’t choose a career line: I’m in the same position as of now but I’ve made it a point to give my best in what I’m doing currently. :)
• Your style statement: It would always have to be comfort and quality first. A mix of trends and a touch of naughtiness with a glimpse of elegance would be my style.
• How many pair of bags and foot-wears do you own? (approx.) My wardrobe has got a huge size shift since blogging. Currently I own 12 footwear and 11 bags.
• Favourite shopping destinations for:  
  Accessories:  Forever 21, aldo & oasap.com (my sponsor) for western and Bg’s for   bling & Indian touch. Western apparels: Zara, mango, promod, madame and Oasap.comIndian apparels: Meena Bazaar, sabhyata and Biba ·Foot-wears: Clarks, catwalk and oasap.com
• Favourite or Must have make up products : I’m a fan of staying natural but I’d swear by Maybeline/Fabindia’s kajal and kiehl’s lip balm.

About Blog :

• What made you start your blogging journey ? I started blogging with a friend, just for fun! Pretty soon we realized that our interests didn’t match so I started Fictitious Fashion to bring something new to my life. I can proudly say that blogging has brought a delightful change to my personality, wardrobe and life.
• Blogs you admire (Indian): Stylish by Nature, by Shalini
• Who takes your pictures for blog? Mostly my brother, Mr. A and sometimes parents.
• Isn’t taking a picture of outfit outdoor is difficult task with public staring? Do you hesitate or feel awkward doing that? Initially it was awkward and I used to wait a couple of minutes before the place was empty but now it doesn’t matter. I feel like a model and people most often stare for a few seconds, thinking that a photoshoot is going on, and leave. I’m not sure why but this makes me feel special and happy now!
• Do you dress up specially for blog pictures at times ? My style was totally different before blogging. I used to go out for fun and then take pictures for blog (sometimes). Now I go out to have fun, keeping in mind that I’ve to make an outfit post. So, all my clothes are now in sync with a blogger image so I mostly dress-up especially for Blog.
• Any fashion advice: Make comfort your friend and dress according to your body type, occasion and style. Imbibing fashion in your lifestyle is great but make sure to create your own look by playing around with colors, patterns and styles.
• Are you planning to make career through blogging? If yes, then how?Yes, I am planning (read: planning) to make a career out of blogging. I’m writing for several magazines, tying-up with sponsors and reaching out to my lovely readers for my passion and love for what I do. After all, if it weren’t for the readers, I won’t be running a soul. So I’d like to Thank everyone for their love and support!

About Fitness :

• What do you do to keep yourself fit? Being a food-freak, its very difficult to maintain my shape but I give my best every day. I drink a glass of water every half n’ hour, eat 2-3 fruits daily, avoid junk food, don’t drink aerated drinks or coffee, avoid drinking water in between meals and the most important being~ drinking 2-3 glasses of lukewarm water every morning and doing cardio & pilates alternatively every day. That’s it! :)
• Any fitness advice: Though this comes under personal care and beauty but your hardwork with food and healthy lifestyle won’t show if you don’t take care of yourself externally, afterwards. Whenever you go out, make it a point to cover yourself from head toe to protect yourself from sun and pollution. No one has to know who is behind that stole. Apart from what I do to keep myself fit; choosing happiness over worries is surely the best remedy for inner glow :)
