#what's your chat, blogger?

heeeeeeeeey!

wow enthusiastic greeting right there. I think it's well deserved though as I've been naughtily hibernating for over a month. When I last posted I said I'd be taking a break for a few weeks due to my exams but then I think I became a bit (read: very!) lazy. I've missed reading everyone's blogs and I'm now trying to get my blogging train back on the right track so I can catch up with everyone.

This is something I've been meaning to do but I just didn't know what to post I kept thinking "what the hell do I post after a month!?". Thankfully though the beautiful Katie at Katies Cup of Tea saved me from this dilemma by tagging me in her 'whats your chat, blogger?' post and I thought what better way to re-introduce myself to the blogging scene than to tell you all a bit about myself. But before we get on to my craziness I highly recommend that you check out Katie's post and blog they're both amazing; as is her style. I literally want everything that she owns and everything on her wishlists! she deserves so many more followers so go check her out :)

BACK TO BASICS

What's your name?

Danielle, but most people call me Danni. My nickname used to be Nell when I was younger because my little sister couldn't say Danielle and I've even been called danni the fanny and faniella by my friends because they're just nice people like that ;)

How old are you and when's your birthday?

 I'm 18 and my birthday's in December (hi 5 my fellow Sagittarius' ;)

Where do you come from?

Wolverhampton, 45 minutes away from Birmingham. Yep that's right that means I'm surrounded by the cringe worthy Black Country accent and I've even got it myself *sad face*

What's your current occupation?

I'm a sixth form student full-time. I also work in the bars at my local football club and work as a cleaner for a few hours a week... one day I will make an amazing housewife due to my hoovering and pint pulling skills ;)

FILL ME IN, WHAT'S YOUR BLOG ABOUT?

What category does your blog fall into?

I originally advertised my blog as fashion, beauty and lifestyle but it does feature a lot more fashion related posts than any other - I guess I just have an obsession with clothes. Now that I'm back I've got a few outfit posts planned and even a few beauty posts. I've fell in love with some amazing beauty products in the last month and I just have to share them with you all.

What's the aim of your blog?

It hasn't really got an aim - its just my hobby. I loved reading blogs so decided to create my own to share all the things I love in the fashion-sphere. I really love the blogging world everyone's so positive and friendly and how can you not love perving on all the latest trends :) I only created my blog in July but I already feel that my style has developed so much because of it and I feel more confident. I also like looking back at my earlier posts and reminiscing about what I was doing at the time; my blog is like my diary.

What's the reason behind your URL and blog name?

well as you can probably tell not a lot of thought went into thinking of my blog name. My mindset was "my names Danielle, its a fashion blog... Danielle's Closet. Ta da!". Once I'd plucked up the courage to create my blog I was too excited to think of an amazing name, plus im not the most imaginative person in the world. But it's simple and its a name so its fine :) My URL is just my blog name but in Spanish. Danielle's closet had already been taken and I was teaching myself Spanish at the time so armariodedanielle.blogspot.co.uk was born!

Five great blogs to check out!

This was originally meant to be only 3 blogs but I had to bump it up to 5 as you seriously need to check out these girls blogs! I love too many blogs so it was really hard trying not to name every blog under the sun - so please don't be offended if I didn't name you.
 I love all these girls styles so much I seriously want to raid there wardrobes! one day I may have to plan a GI Joe-esque mission to steal there clothes ;)
Go check out these beautiful girls blogs!

INSPIRE US

What inspires you the most?

I can't pinpoint one thing that inspires me the most. Lots of things inspire me on a daily basis through conversations, songs, books and movies. If I enjoy something then I'm likely to be inspired by it. I guess my parents are the most inspirational in my life due to the fact I'm so much like them without even realising.

One quote or motto that you live by?

"you can't re-write the story, you can only learn from it"
This is a phrase that I've lived by for many years and I was planning on getting it as a tattoo in half term but I've got no money at the moment, sad times :( The phrase basically means that things happen, you can't change the past or stop things from happening. You can only ensure that you learn from your experiences and make yourself a stronger and better person. If you make a mistake, don't regret it, just make sure you don't make it again.

Favourite icon, dead or alive?

I love too many icons to actually chose one. I love the classic songs, like a bit of Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Elvis and the Beatles. I'd love to have been alive when they were in their prime. My sister and I were even having a conversation the other day about how jealous we are that my mom could go out in the 80s and they would play tuneage like wham. Seriously why don't they play that any more? I swear I would go out every night and never stop dancing!

LET'S BE RANDOM

So you're an animal, what are you?

A meerkat! I bloody love those furry buggers if I was a meerkat then I'd obviously be able to be friends with the one and only Alexander the Meerkat. We would sip tea together and moan about how people keep visiting comparethemeerkat.com instead of comparethemarket.com.

You can eat one thing for the rest of your life?

 ooh toughie. I think it would have to be between bbq chicken pizza and Indian food. These are already staples in my diet, unhealthy I know but so god damn nice.

*Click* you're anywhere in the world, where are you?

 I want to visit so many places but the place that automatically came to mind is New York. I have already been but I just love the place and have a slight obsession with it. I'd love to live there and pretend I'm part of the cast of F.R.I.E.N.D.S or How I Met Your Mother (yes I also have an unhealthy obsession with New York based sitcoms ;)

Insert random picture here?

I leave you with a picture of some adorable kittens. enjoy :)
