So, why not try tweaking the current trend, whatever that may be, in your own, unique way?

However, it’s not and the sooner you accept this, the better off you’ll be. And the sooner you begin to make vital fashion connections, the better off you’ll be too. Whether this means schmoozing the boss of your internship or entry level store job, or connecting with fashion designers as you climb higher up the ladder and attend networking events, you must do it.

Be trustworthy throughout

Make the transition from, reviewer and blogger to an independent business owner, publicly. Remain in full and transparent contact with your fans, for they are your loyal consumer base; without them, you wouldn’t even be in this position in the first place. It must be your ethos to be completely impartial and unbiased. Only sell the products that you personally believe in, fans and first-time viewers want authenticity because that builds trust both financially and mentally. This means you will have to carefully plan how much stock you’re willing to buy and store.
