Today is the start of a new feature here on Things The Books Forgot where each month (hopefully) I'll be introducing and interviewing a new blogger. I really wanted to do something to help out other blogs like my own and introduce you to some amazing bloggers you may not have heard of before. So I really really hope you enjoy this as I'm super excited about getting to work with some lovely girls, and please let me know what you think!
First up in my Meet The Blogger series is Kathryn from The Kats Paws.
What inspired you to start your blog?
I love shopping and beauty products, and people
would always ask me where I got something from or what I would recommend
product-wise, therefore I decided to start a blog as even if I help or inspire
one person, then I have achieved something.
What’s your favourite thing about running your
blog?
I think the whole blogging community is
brilliant - it is like having thousands of new friends, who are always happy to
help if you have a question or a problem.
Who is your favourite blogger/the blogger that
inspired you most?
I love Sprinkle of Glitter, as she is so
genuinely lovely, and manages to be a young woman, a Mummy, a blogger, and much
more, and still manages to inspire me every single day. I was lucky enough to
meet her last month in the car park of a play centre and she was so kind to me,
even though I was interrupting the time she was spending with her little girl
Darcy and fellow You Tuber Jack Howard.
What is your favourite type of post to write?
Why?
I quite like to do Get Ready With Me posts as
you then get to do a full make-up routine, and it can be as complex (i.e.
skincare, cosmetics, eyelashes) or as basic as you like. I also like to read
these types of posts as they inspire me to try new products or trends.
Who inspires you most? Why?
Generally speaking, my parents inspire me the
most. I was adopted at 3 months old and my adoptive Mum had cancer three times
throughout my life, and my childhood was still filled with love and fun. My Mum
died when I was 17 and although it was a hard time, my Dad and I got through
it, and he has been there for me so many times when I have got in trouble or
needed my Mum.
What is your favourite shop?
My favourite shop is actually an American shop
called Bath UK Orlando
What item of clothing are you longing for at the moment?
I don't know if this counts, but I am really
wanting one of the new Kate Spade scallop bags - luckily they have a Kate Spade
outlet in Orlando
If you were stranded on a desert island and
could only take 3 things with you, what would they be? Why?
Ooooh this is a hard one - a lot of people tend
to be clever with this one and say things that would help them get off the
island, but I would say my kitten Millie as she makes me super happy, my phone
as I cannot live without it, and a lifetime supply of contact lenses so I could
see where I was going!
What’s your main goal for the future?
Just to be healthy and happy. The world we live
in can sometimes be quite a horrid one and this can have an affect on us. After
a really bad relationship last year, I now suffer from anxiety attacks and so I
am concentrating on being healthy and ensuring I can be as happy as possible.
What’s one piece of advice you wish you could
give your younger self?
Just to not worry what other people think. I was
so obsessed with being the nice girl when I was younger, pleasing everyone but
myself, and at the end of the day, they will just walk all over you as a lot of
people these days are only concerned about themselves, which I think is really
quite sad.
