15 Questions
In keeping with finding new hobbies, I’ve been binge watching Vogue’s 73 questions, a fast-paced manner of interviewing celebrities by asking them 73 questions. Absolutely brilliant way for nosey introverts like myself to get to know people while avoiding any form of social interaction. Its a rather odd choice of hobby, considering it involves very minimal activity but people are interesting so why not? Talking about interviews, I’ve done a few in the past, do check them out HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE.
I love Vogue’s 73 questions so much so that I’ve decided to bring it to my blog, my way of course :). So based on that idea, this post marks the first of a series of interviews with some wonderful people I have met/seen on social media. 73 is rather excessive so as you can judge from the title, I have put together 15 questions.
I introduce to you Chris aka @chucksandchanel, a wonderful friend I have made on the internet. She is a Belgium-based journalist /copywriter, mother to a gorgeous cocker spaniel called Fleur and a self-confessed control freak.
Let’s get things started! So Chris, 15 Questions
1. Your take on pineapple on pizza?15 Questions
I don’t like pizza that much but pineapple on pizza is hardly a crime. My problem with it is that pineapple and tomato sauce are simply incompatible as flavors.

I have only 1 blazer. The jeans can stay.

5. Ugg boots, love or hate?
I used to buy them in every colour. I think it’s completely acceptable to wear them for all occasions, throughout all seasons. A few years ago it was a big fashion crime but from this year on you can wear them again. The Ugg-boot has def. made a triumphant return to the world of fashion this year.
