This week, in honour of my being on holidays at home in B.C., it's five consecutive days of style profiles featuring some of Vancouver's most fashionable and influential bloggers.
The first is Loren Romei. This budding journalist is new to the blogging scene, but judging by her style, she's been a fashion fiend for years. In today's Style Profile, Loren talks trends, blogging, and why you never leave home without a great handbag.
Name: Loren Romei (but my friends call me Lo!)
Age: 21
Occupation: Journalism Student at Carleton University (my alma matter, holla!), Freelance Journalist
When and why did you start your blog?
In June I decided to start my fashion blog. I have always loved fashion and at school I had the opportunity to explore blogging. With the support of my friends, I decided to create a blog that would not only justify my shopping addiction but share my love for fashion! I really wanted to create a blog that wasn't just me posting my outfits. I wanted to show that the intimidating world of fashion can be personal, fun, and creative.
How would you describe your site?
I blog weekly about things I love. But, my site isn't just me, it is also about other fashionable people, local designers, stores, and trends.
Where do you get your inspiration?
Of course I keep up-to-date with fashion magazines, but I think fashion inspiration comes from within.
Who are your style/beauty icons?
Well, since I JUST blogged about her, I must say Blake Lively. I also love Lauren Conrad and Audrey Hepburn.
Describe your personal style.
My style has changed over the years and it still changes on a daily basis. I don't think I could put my style into a box and label it, but I'd have to say I have a girly sense of style mixed with a little bit of sass.
Style/Beauty Pet Peeves?
People who wear workout clothes on a daily basis. Workout clothes can be cute, but only when you're actually working out!
What do you never leave home without?
An adorable over the shoulder bag!
What are five essential items you think every woman should own?
Obviously a little black dress, at least one pair of black heels, red lipstick, cute underwear, and a great designer bag.
Where do you see yourself and your site in five years?
I see myself somewhere on the streets of Vancouver wearing a great outfit and working in PR or online journalism. Hopefully in five years my blog following will be thriving and people will be talking about little lo's loveable things!
Learn more about Loren and Little Lo's Loveable Things by checking out her blog, or by joining the fashionable conversation on Twitter.
In tomorrow's BC Style Profile, we learn about fashion and more by going To Vogue or Bust.
