Have you ever run across a blog and instantly knew it was going be one of your favorites? Well, today's Style Influencer, Candice, has one of those blogs. I first saw her blog on the Fly Girl Blog, she was the Fly Girl of the Week, of course. After viewing one post, I'd decided to email her about a feature on MSF. After looking through her entire blog, I knew you all had to know about the Chic Savant. She happily agreed to do the interview and I was so glad. I know you all will enjoy Candice's style and her views on fashion. Enjoy.
The Chic Savant
For those who don't know, what is the Chic Savant?
What was your inspiration for starting a style blog?
I have always had a love for fashion so when it came to the type of blog that I wanted, there was no question. What really inspired me to start blogging was viewing other style blogs and thinking, “I can do that!” and here I am doing it!
What do you hope you will have accomplished with your blog after ONE year?
Hmm… that’s a good one. I started this blog really with minimal expectations. It was something that I thought would be fun to do and if I got a bunch of readers… cool. Now that I feel like it is growing faster than expected, my goals have changed slightly. The goal with my blog is just to maintain my own integrity with the looks that I present. I notice many style bloggers simply wear the “it bag” or the “it shoe” because they are usually paid to do so. My goal is to stay honest to my personal style and always be original.
Do you have any aspirations to work in the fashion/style industry?
I would love to be a stylist! I have been doing some styling here in Cincinnati, but would love to one day expand to a larger market.
Three words to describe your style are...
Chic. Inspired. Mine.
You wake up late for work, what is your five minute outfit and hair style?
That’s an easy one. I wear scrubs to work so it literally only takes me about five minute to throw that on. However, if I was late for say, a business meeting, my go to style is slacks or a nice dress. I always always add a blazer and heels. My go-to hairstyle is a wash and go when I’m short on time. I love to do more creative looks when I have time to play. My hair has always been one of my best accessories!
What is your style advice for working women?
Never lose yourself in your outfit. Finding a signature look whether it’s a hairstyle or an outfit combination that works for you will make getting ready so much easier. Getting into a routine (not to be confused with a rut) and incorporating trendy pieces will help make sure that your look is your own.
Any last words?
Thanks SO much Candice!
Make sure you all check the Chic Savant!
