Could you introduce yourself in a few lines so that our community can get to know you better? How would you define your style/your universe as a fashion addict influencer?
My name is Chloé, I am 37 years old, I am a nurse and mother of 2 princesses aged 7 and 3.
I like to share my fashion and beauty favorites, places like new restaurants, etc. but above all my joy of life, my good vibes. In my job I experience difficult situations and I like to share the fact that many things in life are not serious compared to illness and that you have to enjoy life 🌞. So let's stop complaining because it's raining (well yes it's autumn but long live plaids and Netflix) or because it's Sunday evening (I don't know the Sunday evening blues) a good piece of music, a meal, a nice movie and we think about something else.
Date of creation of your activity on social networks as a fashion addict influencer?
I've had my Instagram page for about 2 years. When I started I didn't I didn't even know anything about hashtags!
What was your trigger and why did you start? the adventure of social networks with instagram?
It all started with my love for photography and my friends and family who loved it when I photographed them. I started posting photos of myself that I liked, and it took off very quickly. From the beginning, I tried to communicate my positive state of mind, especially through music in the morning, to give courage to my community.
How much time do you spend on your articles or videos? Production, editing…? Do you have any organizational advice for others? influencers fashion addict?
I have to admit that for me it's a part-time job on top of my job (I works at 80 %)
I try to be organized, I have notebooks where I write down what I have to or want to do and how much time I have to do it as well as my ideas.
What community and audience are you targeting?
Women between 18 and 60 are necessarily more attracted to the fashion and beauty side of my page but the lifestyle side is for everyone, I have a male community who also likes the positive messages that I try to convey.
Where do you find your inspiration mainly? And which social networks do you use the most?
I have been passionate about fashion/beauty/music/cinema/painting since I was little. I devour new trends, I listen to music several hours a day (often while dancing) and I follow accounts that I find inspiring on Instagram (my main social network, the 2nd is 21 buttons but recently)
How do you manage your time, between your family, your work and your social networks? Do you have a job or another activity besides your work as a fashion addict influencer?
Yes, I am a nurse at 80 %. My daughters are in school so I take advantage of my days off when they are at school to take photos or work on posts. I admit that I am lucky to be a light sleeper (5 hours of sleep is enough for me) and I am on Instagram a lot in the evening when my daughters and mister are asleep)
Are your visuals and photos made by yourself? And if so, what equipment do you use?
Half of the photos are made by me with my mobile phone (Samsung S9+) and retouched on lightroom (brightness, contrast etc.). The other half is made in collaboration with photographers.
What advice would you give to other influencers in the community?
First thing, be and remain yourself, there is no point in trying to be someone else or play a role, it will end up being seen.
And my biggest advice is patience, getting known takes time, you have to persevere even when you work hard and the results are not there, they will come with time. Continuing to provide quality content is the key.
What would you like to undertake or develop next in your life as a fashion addict influencer?
I am thinking more and more about a blog or a YouTube channel or both. I think a second social network is necessary today, especially with Instagram's algorithm, which is hurting many influencers.
Let's see if I can reconcile all this with my work and my little family 🌞
