Hi There..... Are you an Instagram Influencer and do you love Women’s Fashion?
Ah great, that means you are just like me. Oops, no, that’s impossible, because there is nobody like me. I am one of a kind. I bet you are too. 😁
It is said though that everybody has a twin somewhere. I haven’t met mine, but something very weird happened to me about 20 years ago. 😮
In the supermarket, I was waiting for my turn, on the cold cuts counter, when someone pushed me aside. I didn’t know the man that pushed me and looked at him in surprise. I am so sorry, he said, but you are the spitting image of my sister. 😯
Have you ever encountered anything like that?
Something similar happened to me a second time, about 15 years ago. I know it’s pretty hard to believe, but pinky swear that it’s true. 😉
I went to my first rehearsal with a new choir. One member almost fainted when she saw me. She had a younger sister that had died a few years ago and according to her; I looked exactly like her. Pretty weird, right? 😲
Back to the point again. What was I talking about? Ah, yes, I wanted to know if you were an Instagram Influencer and into Women’s Fashion. 😊
Maybe you don’t even like Influencers, or worse, you don’t like fashion. I sure hope not, because today is my first interview with a Fashion Influencer. I have done a few interviews with Fashion Designers, and I think it’s fun to get to know more about them. 😍
This inspired me to start a series of interviews with Instagram Influencers who are into women’s fashion. If I can find them of course, because that is not the most straightforward task. If you have any suggestions where to find some or even just one more, that would be outstanding. It pains me to say that they are not all standing in line, waiting for me to feature them on my blog. 😏
Could be because I have done none before, or maybe because I am picky. They would have to have a minimum of 15.000 followers on Instagram. My first star of the show totally fits the bill. Her name is Dima Kontar, she is 35 and has a whopping amount of 32.9 K followers. 😲
Do you have a day job? Full-time or Part-time?
Full-time job.
How many hours do you spend on Instagram on average?
An average of 4h/day on Instagram, and about 8h/day working on campaigns, emails, communications, shooting, and video and photo edits.
Is fashion important to you? Why?
Definitely. The way we dress reflects our character and personality. Every woman has her own fashion label defined by her style and preference. Therefore, it is extremely important to me to dress appropriately for every occasion, and in a way that suits my daily life to achieve an elegant and comfortable look at the same time.
What are your successes and how did you achieve them?
I have a Master’s degree in Health Services Administration. Although I have worked in healthcare for several years and I was very successful in it, I had a huge fashion for modeling which I started at 14. Throughout the years I had two jobs: a full-time hospital job during the day and a modeling job in the afternoons and the weekends.
My journey on Instagram started as a model where I have achieved tremendous success. This journey changed over the years towards digital creation and influencing as I became a mom. I am sure every mom reading this will know how our lovely kids transform our lives. And now social media turned into a full-time job for me!
Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing?
Although I prefer certain brands, I care more about the cut and design of any fashion piece I want to wear. I believe this is more important than the brand name. My motto is that elegance and beauty don’t have a brand name!
Describe your personal style of clothing?
I am more of a casual, elegant person and this fits my daily life.
How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look?
Personally, I prefer to dress up to the occasion. My signature in all my looks is chic and elegance, whether it is an everyday look or an occasion look.
Do you have an influence on other people’s clothing style?
I believe every person following me gets influenced by the style that fits their character. That’s why I always display fashion looks that can suit a variety of populations, and they can incorporate into their daily looks.
What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?
Nowadays it is very important to me to be trendy and unique elegantly.
What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?
The worst trends are the ones you can’t incorporate into your daily style. They cause a feeling of discomfort when trying to adopt these styles.
What kind of fashion advice would you give us?
Dress in a way that suits your body and curves. You might see a nice fashion piece that you love and would want to wear, but that doesn’t suit your body form. Not every trend fits everyone. Choose what looks nice on you and reflects your beauty.
Who is your style icon and why?
No one in particular. I love to be creative and unique, and mix and match my closet items, to make a fresh look every day. I love to choose trendy fashion pieces and assemble them in a chic, elegant way. Remember to always shop according to your wardrobe and transform some old pieces you have. You will be fascinated with the results.
Is there something else you would like to share with us?
Always be yourself. You are beautiful the way you are. Dress to impress. And don't forget to follow me on my social media to learn more about fashion trends, tips, and hacks.
