Take Note: May's International Blogger of the Month

I gave up on Take Note for a while because I kept running out of time but recently I was browsing some blogs and stumbled across Grace's blog, Exquisite Boredom, and I knew I had to feature her so here we are with Take Note again! Her style is so feminine and quirky with charm

 emanating from every outfit. A girl after my own heart. She kindly agreed to do an interview for me which you can see below.

Let me introduce Grace!

How did you first get involved with blogging? 

I don't remember well, it was about 3 years ago when I started looking
through the fashion blogs. Then, I tried to create my own, but I
wasn't very patient and I gave up after a short time. This year I
tried once again and I really enjoy it! 

Describe your personal style.

I don't know how to call my style, but it's mostly romantic, sometimes
boho, sometimes vintage, sometimes modern. I love pastel clothes,
flower dresses and lace tops. My closet couldn't also exist without
blazers and some basics, to compare with.

Who are your style icons?

Fashion bloggers, models and popculture icons. E.g. Audrey Hepburn,
Marlena Dietrich, Grace Kelly. Modern people: Abbey Lee Kershaw, Freja
Beha, Bambi Northwood-Blyth, Mary-Kate Olsen, Chloë Sevigny, Alexa
Chung and so on. I also like the way how girls from 'Gossip Girl'
dress. 

Where do you get your inspiration from?

From many sources, mostly from fashion blogs and street style blogs,
but also from fashion magazines, TV series, etc.

How does where you live affect your style?

I live in a countryside, people who live here don't really care abot
their appearance, so they sometimes look at me like if I was an alien,
but I don't find myself extravagant so I don't care about them. I wear
things in which I feel comfortable and which I like. 

What's your favourite book, movie and band?

Some of my favorite books: 'Pride and Prejudice', 'PS. I love you',
'The Devil Wears Prada'.
I have a lot of favorite movies, such as 'Breakfast at Tiffany's',
'Fight Club', 'Requiem for a dream', 'The Notebook', 'American
Beauty', 'Boy A', etc.
I don't have a favorite band, but I love listening to indie rock
musicians, e.g. The Kooks, Kasabian, Foals, Lykke Li, Snow Patrol and
many others.

What would be your perfect Saturday?

I would start my prefect Saturday visiting SPA and spending time
relaxing, then go on shopping with 

friends, picking some clothes to be
ready for a perfect date and at the end of a day, a girl's night out!

If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would it be?

New York City or Taiwan.

What's one fashion faux pas you secretly love? 

I don't have any, I guess;)

 If you could live in one movie, which would it be?

 'The Notebook'.

Any tips for aspiring personal style bloggers?

Never give up, always wear the clothes you really like and you feel
comfortable wearing them and also HAVE FUN WITH FASHION!
