april blogger: the lovely miss likey

Sunday, April 01, 2012

Hello everyone! I would like you all to meet the charming Nina of Miss Likey. I was instantly drawn to her pretty blog because of her collages and her sweet taste. I hope you enjoy these eight quick questions and the above 'favourites things' collage she kindly did for this interview. 

Your collages are beautiful! Where do you always go looking for inspiration?Thank you :) I usually go from the story I imagine. Then I open my scrapbook folder which is full of different paper cuts, backgrounds etc. Tumblr is also great. I’ve always loved to combine different images or paper things- since I was a little girl. My parents used to be upset with little paper rests I was leaving behind me.

Based on the fashion, is there any other era you would like to visit for a day?
Oh yes, Victorian and Edwardian though I would find those restrictions on female rights very upsetting. 1920s are the years that also amuse me. And 1960s- if there’s a time machine I would go to Biba and ask for a job!
In your spare time, you would most likely be found...Sewing, reading and cleaning. An ordinary housewife :)

If you could move to or visit anywhere in the world, where would you go?I would move to London definitely. It’s my favorite place on the earth, so poetic yet so vivid.

Vintage or new?Rare vintage and new that has appearance of vintage.
The three things that are always in your bag, include...Cigarettes unfortunately, Chanel blush and notebook (scrapbook).

At the moment you're reading...
Just finally finished House at Riverton, great novel based in England during Edwardian time. Now started Costume and Fashion, for the third time I believe.

Thanks for letting me interview you, Nina! Any last tips on blogging?
Thank you! I adore your blog. Hmm… I am not exactly the best person to give tips on blogging, but what helps a lot I think is continual posting, individual opinion and original content.

Hope you all  had a marvellous weekend!
