Here is the first of many interview, of our favorite bloggers, writers, fashinonistas, budgetistas stylists, online friends that were sweet enough to answer to a list of my very random questions – in hopes of keeping the blogging spirit alive and as a way of highlighting some of the amazing people and their works on the internet.

For all the questions you’ve wanted answers to, but were just too out-of-place to ask, all the questions you never even thought of asking too; you’ll smile, you might even laugh, but I really hope that you’ll be inspired to do what makes you come alive.

Here’s the first in the TooCute Interviews our Favorites :
