SABRINA AFTERDRK - INTERVIEW
Sabrina. Young, sweet and talented lady who stands behind an original blog afterDRK and is certainly worth your attention.
Tell us a little bit about yourself and where you live.
I am Sabrina and I'm 22 years old, working as a full time blogger
and freelance journalist for a big Dutch news website. I live in Amsterdam
and I'm sharing an apartment with 2 super sweet roomies.
Do you remember your first fashion experience? Where does your interest in fashion come from?
My mom teached me my interest in fashion I think. When I was about
3 and she put me in a new dress, I used to run upstairs to a big mirror
to see how I looked.
How did you fisrt get into blogging? Why?
I started about 2 years ago, I used to follow a lot of blogs back then
and was getting major inspiration from them. I wanted to see if I could
give a little inspiration back and I find it a nice way to express myself.
Tell us the meaning or reason behind your blog name?
It’s the time write after it just got dark.
Did blogging change your life?
Did blogging change your life?
Yes I think I could say that. Blogging has brought me so much,
from visiting Fashion Week, to meeting new friends and traveling.
Is there any advice you would give to a starting bloggers?
Is there any advice you would give to a starting bloggers?
The most important thing is to make it as personal as you can.
Of course outfit posts are the best, because it can't get any more personal than that.
Take your own pictures and take them properly, to make your content as unique as you can.
I get my inspiration pretty much from everywhere, from music to other
bloggers and from books to Miroslava Duma and Christina Centenera.
I’m also really into Scandinavian everything. Blogs, styles, brands, you name it, I love it.
Is there a trend you can't stand?
Yes, the shearling aviator jackets, because I'm completely in love with that trend,
but the jackets are so damn expensive.
What are your other hobbies besides blogging?
I love to explore my city and discover new spots.
If you could meet with anyone in the world, Who would you choose? Why?
My family is in Australia, I've only seen my uncle twice and one nephew once,
but I really want to travel to Australia to meet the rest of my nephews, my niece and my aunt.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Why?
In New York for a couple of years, I've been to New York about 2 years ago
to celebrate new years, the city really amazed me and I sooo want to go back.
After those couple of years I would want to go back to Amsterdam though,
cause that is the city that I call home.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
Hopefully still blogging, maybe as a stylish mama, living in Amsterdam with my boyfriend,
which I will be able to call my husband by then and taking care of a cute English bulldog.
