Interview with Fashionista Hollywood Posh!!!

My beauty of the day is fashionista Hollywood Posh! I came across her on Instagram. I kept seeing her picture on the popular page and her fashion sense was the bomb!! She has been featured on other popular fashion blogs for her fashion genius! So I was so happy when she agreed to interview with me. I was able to get to know her and gain some insight on her fashion game!!

Me: How did you get into fashion?
 
Hollywood Posh: My mom and dad were always into clothing.

Me: How would you describe your style? Trendsetter?
 
Hollywood Posh: I don’t believe in trends. And I don’t follow trends. I basically start my own. And I don’t consider myself as a trend. Like, I prefer no one follow me, You know, create their own trend.

Me: So you just prefer people to look up to you as inspiration but just do their own thing?
 
Hollywood Posh: Right, right do your own thing definitely.

Me: On Instagram you are always on the popular page. Were you promoting fashion?

Hollywood Posh: It happened over night. I've been doing it on Twitter and other pages. But on Instagram, it started overnight. Basically I post my pictures and I went from 200 one day to 10,000 overnight. I haven't had Instagram that long. It just went from me posting pictures, and it happened overnight. I just posted my daily outfits, stuff I like, eyeglasses, or my shoes and they liked it. And I just started making the popular page 5 times a day. It started with me just making it 1 time and then 5 times a day, 10 times a day. People started hearing about me, people started hearing about me in Miami, Philly, New Orleans, etc.

Me: So you're only on Twitter and Instagram? You're not on YouTube or anything?
 
Hollywood Posh: Well actually my fans requested I do YouTube videos. But with school going on I don’t really have time for that. But maybe I will start in the summertime. So just to try to help my fans with their daily styling I will start one once I finish this last semester.
 

Me: So right now youre a full time student?
 
Hollywood Posh: Yes I am!

Me: So what are your favorite brands and why?
 
Hollywood Posh: Favorite brands…umm I have so many. I'll give a high end and low end. High end would be Chanel because of course its classic. Low end would be H&M, I love H&M.
 

Me: So what would you say is a must have/staple item in a woman or guys closet?
 
Hollywood Posh: Men and women, everybody needs a nice timepiece.
 
Me: As far as your boutique, tell me about it? Is it an online boutique or an actual store you're opening?
 
Hollywood Posh: Its based online Posh World Boutique. Eventually I will expand and get a location. But for right now since I'm a college student, that’s a lot to sign up for.
www.poshworldboutique.com
Me: What type of things can your fans expect from your boutique?
 
Hollywood Posh: Basically anything I wear. I wouldn’t sell anything that I wouldn’t wear myself. So leggings, fitted dresses, blouses, blazers, sunglasses, accessories, all that. Anything that you would see me wear you'll probably see on my website.
 

Me: Is it for men and women?
 
Hollywood Posh: No just for women. Eventually I am going to do men's but not at the moment.
 
Me: Will you have a full range of sizes?
 
Hollywood Posh: I'll have a variety of sizes. XS to XL.I think if you're more than a XL you probably don’t need to be in leggings. So yeah XS to XL.*laughs*
 


Me: What made you want to open the store?
 
Hollywood Posh: Because I feel like. To me there's not many boutiques online. There's a lot of different boutiques but they're kinda high, they're very high to me. And a lot of my fans don’t know how to put their stuff together. So my site will also show them how to wear their things.

Me: Do you ever have a day where you just don’t know what to wear? Because I can see you having that issue from having so many clothes.
 
Hollywood Posh: I'm the type of person to pick my clothes out at night. I put it together in my head so in the morning it takes me 5 minutes to get dressed. I have days when I wana wear everything, but there's always the next day. So I just wear whatever comes to my head. I feel like if you got style its just natural.

Me: What advice would you give to someone who wants to be more stylish but is afraid to come out of their shell?
 
Hollywood Posh: Okay, I tell most girls, young girls, grown women, whoever, to build a wardrobe. And I feel like you don’t have to go spend $500 - $600 hundred dollars to build a wardrobe. I feel like, you get a paycheck or you got a couple of bucks to treat yourself, go buy a blouse, or go buy something like a blazer. Stuff you can wear in summer or winter. Go buy a nice watch or buy a good leather pair of shoes, like cognac it goes with everything. I feel you should invest in items that you can be versatile with. Don’t invest in items that just are for trends that only last for a moment. Like color block, don’t spend a lot of money on that stuff because its just a trend.

Interview with Fashionista Sherry!!

My beauty of the day is Sherry!!! I came across her on Instagram (Follow her at koolkat_ss) about a month ago. I kept seeing her photos on the popular page and I had to find out her secret to her fashion genius! I had the pleasure of interviewing her and she gave me a lot of information! Check it out below!
Me: When did you know that fashion was your specialty? What inspires your fashion style?

Sherry: I didn't really know my sense of Fashion was anything special until people would come up to me and give extreme compliments. I get inspired by everything I see on a day to day basis. I take what I see on the magazine, people on the streets, custom attire of different cultures, men, everything that pleases my eyes I incorporate it into an outfit that I feel is badass.
 
 

 
 
 
 
Me: What are your favorite clothing brands? And why? Where do you mostly shop?
 
Sherry: I don't particularly have a favorite clothing brand. Im not a celebrity and as much as I love their lavish wardrobe its not something I can afford on a daily. I am an impulsive shopper and I buy clothing anywhere that catches my eye or gives me an outfit idea- from Walmart and flea markets to Ysl and Versace. I love the collab of high end fashion with urban street wear. I stumble across a lot of my pieces anywhere I go, online, I don't have a specific shop. I used to like Forever21 and all those teens shops when I was younger until everyone became a fashionista wearing the same clothing. I wanted to be unique and have things others would want to find. I personally like to thrift shop at savers, salvation army, etc. to find vintage pieces and give a modern look to it.
 
I love thrift stores, a lot of people don't appreciate it but fashion isn't about the the cost of clothing. I personally love the vintage designer bags and jewelry of people who no longer see the beautiful value it still holds. It is a piece that can grow with your style no matter how rapid fashion changes. A lot of people go in there and see garbage but if you have a creative mind you can do wonders with those old clothes. In all my outfits I almost always have something thrifted. Its like going to a fabric store, looking for colors and patterns, the only difference is the clothing is made just add your twist to it with a little snipping and sewing.
 
Me: What is a must have item in anyone's closet? A nice suit, black shoes, blazer, etc.
 
Sherry: That's kind of hard. I have a very wide range of wardrobe... But Basics and if I had to a gold chain, pumps, a pair of Jordan's, distressed shorts, a red blazer, harem pants, and a cropped tee. I can definitely make this a casual, edgy, classy, or sexy look.
 
Me: Do you have any upcoming events or major moves happening for you as far as fashion? (Ex. Styling any major events, styling any celebs, etc)
 
Sherry: No I'm just a normal girl from Hawaii and moved to Vegas for school. One thing I am honored about is im one of the few Rhianna is following on Instagram. She is definitely someone that inspires me as we share a same taste in street wear and high fashion. Having her as a follower and acknowledging my taste definitely motivates me to pursue something in the fashion industry soon.
 

Me: When you aren't coming up with thee best fashion outfits, what do you like to do?
 
Sherry: Besides shopping and hunting for other pieces that could be a potential outfit I'm normally studying. Im still a full time student. Other things that keeps me going is traveling. Which is where I get a lot of other clothing ideas. In Japan, I got to see all the funky and cute trend in harajuku, Barcelona- was the sophisticated leather and fur winter wear, Bahamas- The sexy bandeaus, distressed shorts, sheer clothing etc....

 
Me: What advice do you have for someone who wants to be more stylish but is afraid to come out of their shell?
 
Sherry: BE CONFIDENT. Everyone has their own sense of style and don't understand the versatility of fashion. It takes a very imaginative person to recognize how mix matched can actually match. A lot of people go for comfort but "pain is beauty", the most Fabbest things are literally the things to die for. I get put down a lot and get negative comments from others but if you're confident, what they say don't even matter. If what you do or wear is something you believe, eventually others get inspired.


Sherry inspired me so much!!! As you can see she is naturally talented in the fashion field! Her fashion is current and fearless! She puts items together that may not seem like it matches. But she puts things together so well, it all just works!!!

Be sure to follow her on Instagram to see her fabulous outfits at koolkat_ss.
Again, I thank you so much Sherry for doing this interiew with me, and sharing your thoughts with me about fashion! Sending so much love to my Beauty of the Day Sherry!!!
