A Little Glimpse into my Favorites: Salli Mandel

There are so many great Instagram accounts and blogs out there to be read and discovered. I thought it would be fun to share with  you guys every once in a while a profile of one of my favorites. For my first profile I decided to interview Salli Mandel of StylebySalli. I discovered her blog last year, and she not only has an awesome blog but a great Instagram feed. So if you are looking for a great blog to read defiantly check out hers!


Just a Little Introduction: 
Age: 18
Hometown: Washington, D.C.


What made you start blogging? How long have you been blogging for? 
I began blogging in October of 2013, when I was 14, and have loved it ever since. I started my blog because I wanted to be able to express myself and document my outfits in a different way than everyone else. I thought it would be a fun outlet for me and through it, I have connected with so many incredible friends and people across the world!

What is your favorite part about blogging?
My favorite part of blogging is meeting new people. I have met a lot of really close friends from all over the world, including New York City, Florida, and Connecticut. It's so incredible to know people of all ages in so many different places.

Future plans for the blog?
My goal this summer is to be posting five days a week and to go to a lot of different places to take photos. I love finding new spots to take photos and I think that people who read my blog would really enjoy seeing all sorts of different neighborhoods and backgrounds.

What is your favorite trend for summer?
My favorite trend for summer is probably espadrilles. Soludos espadrilles have been so popular lately and I'm obsessed! I just bought my first pair of Soludos and I know I'll be wearing them a ton this summer!

What are you favorite Instagram accounts?
My favorite blogger of all time is Julie Sariñana of Sincerely Jules, so her Instagram is one that I check daily! Her outfits always inspire me and her photos are so beautiful. I love seeing everywhere she travels to! My other favorite Instagram is Brooke Miccio's. She seriously has such an eye for amazing photos and her editing is incredible. I basically live vicariously through her travel pictures!

Just a Few Fun Questions: 
Favorite places to brunch in D.C.?
There are too many to choose! Some of my top favorites are Patisserie Poupon, Cafe Bonaparte, Flavio, and Sequoia. All of them are in Georgetown. It's definitely my favorite spot for brunch!

If you could travel anywhere where would you choose to go?
Italy is my all time favorite country, so probably there. I love how every spot is so different from the next. My favorite cities are Rome and Venice, and the region of Tuscany. I would really love to go to Paris or Germany again, but I also have never been to Amsterdam or Spain, both of which I am dying to see! I also have wanted to go to Morocco for a really long time. I basically would like to travel anywhere haha!

What is your favorite music right now?
I am a Spotify addict and my summer playlist is filled with a lot of country, Slow Hands by Niall Horan (so good), Russ, A R I Z O N A, Chance, NAV, and The Chainsmokers. There's a wide variety of music I'm listening to right now!
