Good morning! It’s time for a new blogger spotlight. This time I interviewed Rowan from the blog ‘Retromantic‘. Rowan started her blog in 2013 which was called ‘on Rebellious yet Romantic’. In February 2015 she change the name in ‘Retromantisch’. Why? Because Rowan is a romantic girl with a big love for retro/vintage fashion. She loves to write about fashion. Meaning Rowan show her own outfits and looks that inspire her. Well let’s get to know Rowan a bit better……
1. Can you tell us a little about yourself?
My name is Rowan. I’m a romantic girl with a big love for retro/vintage fashion (and interior!). I mix tule skirts, floral prints, dreamy dresses, vintage finds and hats into something I like to describe as ‘retromantic’.
2. What was the reason why you started your blog?
My blog started as a spot to collect my creative outbursts. Some kind of online notebook, for drawings, fashion inspiration, random photography, etcetera. It developed more and more to a fashion blog, although I still like to share some of my drawings now and then.
3. How would you describe your clothing style?
Retro and romantic. That’s the reason why I called my blog ‘Retromantic’. I mostly wear warm/autumnal colours and I love items which seem to come from the past. It doesn’t really matter to me whether these items are real vintage pieces, or that they just have a retro appearance. Oh, and I love floral prints!
4. How do you keep coming up with material/content for your blog? Many people struggle with coming up with different articles/posts
Next to outfits, shoplogs and other categories in which I post my own content, I also like sharing fashion inspiration. For example, I make wishlists of my favourite items of the moment, inspiration posts with outfits of other bloggers (for example: how to style a pinafore dress?) or I share my favourite looks from a fashion show I really loved. Inspiration is around you all the time! By looking around for things or people that inspire you (and maybe write a blog post about them), you get new ideas for your own content too. 🙂
5. What are you favorite brands and shops?
I recently discovered the vintage inspired watches by Olivia Burton, beautiful! Also I really love retro fashion brands, like Miss Patina or Mod Dolly.
6. What’s now on your wish list?
I’m really digging this Mod Dolly mustard corduroy smock dress!
7. Who are your favorite bloggers?
I think the looks by Steffy Kuncman (Steffys Pros and Cons) and Amy Roiland (A Fashion Nerd) are wonderful. Both girls have an amazing retro style. Please let their wardrobes get magically teleported to my room!
8. If someone was interested in blogging, what would be a few things you would suggest? Tips!
Be yourself. Invest time in photography, nice visuals really lift up the look and feel of your blog and visualize your style. Don’t focus too much on followers, invites and free goodies, but start with creating amazing content and getting some loyal followers who truly support you. I think that’s way more rewarding!
