The Liebster Award

I've been lucky enough to be nominated for a Liebster award by the very talented Monique at Velvet Writer



Its all about discovering new blogs which is always one of my favourite things to do- its always good to see what other bloggers are doing for inspiration and the blogging community is so nice so its great to be able to promote blogs that you enjoy! 

The Rules:
  • Nominees must link back to the blogger who awarded them. 
  • If nominated, write '11 Random Facts' about yourself! 
  • Answer the 11 questions the person who nominated you wrote for you. 
  • Come up with 11 new questions to be answered by 11 new nominees.


So here goes with my 11 facts: 


  1. I can be a bit OCD with cleaning, especially when I'm hungover which is too weird for words.
  2. I am OBSESSED with lingerie. It's not healthy, but I can't help myself. I probably have more lingerie sets than clothing. 
  3. I want to live on a beach at some point in my life
  4. I secretly want to learn how to DJ and if any of my friends ever saw this I would NEVER hear the end of it
  5. My boyfriend bought me a bunny rabbit called Keith for xmas and now I'm one of those crazy pet people who loves animals loads and loads . 
  6. I love garlic mayonnaise 
  7. I'm a bit of a crazy gym lady at the moment
  8. I wish I had better skin
  9. I'm addicted to Diet Coke
  10. i'm really impatient 
  11. I HATE kitten heels 

My answers for Monique:

How do you gain more followers for your blog?
I don't really have a system for gaining followers. I just put my new post links onto Twitter and do that standard blogger hashtags. Sometimes I put my blog onto my Facebook but only occasionally as its not something I would want all my friends on Facebook to see! 

Why did you become a blogger?
I started blogging in January 2012 properly. Initially it was for my course (fashion marketing) as we were advised to start a blog but now I really enjoy it and the blogging community are so sweet! :)

Where do you love to buy jewellery?
If you were to ask my housemates they would tell you I have an obsession with jewellery.  Zara do lovely simple stuff but I also love the chunky necklaces in H&M. My fave piece of jewellery is rings closely followed by necklaces. Definitely a magpie!

Who is your fashion inspiration?
AHHHH... I have quite a few. I love Blake Lively, she always looks so groomed! Lana del rey always looks amazing too, even when she's dressed casually. I tend to get a lot of fashion inspiration from Tumblr! Such a geek!

Do you own a onesie?
Yes!!!! Of course! Its a must have! Mine is pretty boring and just plain with stripes! Need to invest in a better one! I have a bunny rabbit and saw the coolest bunny onesie in Primark the other day.

What is your favourite online shop?
Ebay is probs my fave as whenever I search things they always have what I am looking for. ASOS is also a good'un. 

What is your most cherished item in your wardrobe?
This is a good question! My most worn item is my leather skater skirt but my most cherished would probably be my lingerie collection. Even though, technically, thats not one item and picking one fave set would be impossible! Oops!

How many pairs of shoes do you have?
At the moment my housemates and I have a large cupboard dedicated to holding our shoes...its looks like this... 

This is some of our shoes combined, I have more at home. I've never officially counted how many I have but probably in the region of 50ish (most of which I've only worn once....very bad!)

How will you celebrate your birthday this year?
I'm 23 this year and not looking forward to it so I'll probs do something quiet...its not until October so I might think of something more interesting by then. It would be cool to have a festival themed birthday.

What is your favourite hair accessory?
Last year I bought some really cute headpiecey things that you put on top of your head like a hat which are from Miss Selfridge, one had like a bead detail on it and the other had a piece sign.
I'd quite like to invest in some cute bows and flower headpieces though! 

Does your blog have a Facebook & Twitter page?
It doesn't have a Facebook page, thats my next job. But you can tweet me here and follow my blog posts here: The Floordrobe
