An Interview with Kara of Sprinkles in Springs
Hi, I'm Kara from Sprinkles in Springs. I started my blog a little over a year ago as a way to collect everything fashion-related that inspired me. I post personal style outfits, blogger interviews and illustrations in a feature I call "Blogger of the Month", shopping guides, fashion trends, outfits inspired by my favorite movies, recipes, and DIYs for clothes, accessories, nails and more. So come check out Sprinkles in Springs and say hello!
How did you come up with your blog name?
Kara: I wanted my blog name to be fun, so I chose 'Sprinkles' to represent the little bits of inspiration I'd be posting about; and 'Springs' is the nickname for my hometown, Coral Springs.
Who or what has been your greatest fashion influence?
Kara: Overall, it would definitely be Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen. I grew up with them and definitely was influenced by their style throughout the years.
Where are you from and what are your top three favorite places to shop in your city?
Kara: I'm from Coral Springs (South Florida). 90% of my shopping is online, but when I venture out to go shopping, I'll usually hit up the Boca Raton Town Center mall for Sephora, Forever 21, and American Apparel. I'm also going to start the search for thirft and vintage shops in the area to wean off ebay
3 fun facts about you:
Kara: I love the circus, I'm a total sugar & baked goods addict (kicking the habit), and my head is usually up in the clouds, swirling with big ideas.
In your opinion, every woman should own:
Kara: Besides classic staples in your wardrobe, you should own an awesome pair of heels that make you feel fabulous and powerful, and that give you instant confidence! Also, the perfect perfume to suit your personality.
4 things you can't live without:
Kara: My imagination, the internet, musicals, and my sister :)
Do you have any comfort foods and what memories do you have associated with them?
Kara: The only food I think that would have any memories associated with it would be our mini Mincemeat pies that we make for Christmas every year. When we make it, each family member gives the mixture a stir and makes a wish (no idea where that tradition came from...)
What bad habits drive you crazy?
Kara: My sweet tooth! And my general lack of motivation to exercise.
What crazy activities do you dream of trying someday?
Kara: It's one of my resolutions this year to take a trapeze class.
On the first day of hot weather, you'll find me:
Kara: Inside with the A/C. It's always hot here, except for a month in the "winter".
Three things that are always in my fridge:
Kara: Almond milk, cheese, frozen fruit for smoothies.
When I want to look cute, I put on...
Kara: A sparkly headband from Anthropologie.
