FAQ:
Did you perm your hair? Or is it naturally like that?
This is au natural darling!
Why is your blog titled Amber's Mouthwash? What does it mean? Do you make your own mouthwash?
While hygiene of your teeth is no joke and cavities are nothing to be messed with, I assure you this is not a blog about dental health care. So why "Mouthwash"? Because most of us never take fashion "as is". We observe, take it in, rinse it in our closets, and then spit out our own version in our everyday lives. So this blog documents my Mouthwash!
Are you still a raw foodist?
This is hard for me to come to terms with: no, I am not. By all technical terms of the word that most raw foodists identify themselves with when it comes to being "raw", I am not. For some reason I am thoroughly convinced that being a raw foodie is the pinnacle of health perfection. I know that this is not logically true - and in some cases, not a healthy way to view food (in terms of strict limitations). However I do enjoy eating healthy! But I do need a fast food fix every now or then... not gonna lie.
What kind of camera do you use?
This one just kills me. Don't get me wrong! I am totally flattered. The camera I use is a basic Kodak Easy Share point and shoot.
UPDATE: I am now the proud, proud, owner of a Canon EOS Rebel T2i
Do you use Photoshop on your photos?
I used to! Then my free trial(s) ran out.Therefore, I have returned to using pixlr.
Do you really post ALL your outfits here on the blog?
No. I am not able to post all of my outfits, because then I would be posting everyday of the week. It usually takes me about an hour to an hour and half to create an outfit post. I wish I had the time to post every single one of them! Perhaps what I will do is take quick snapshots of my other outfits that don't make it on the blog and post them up on my Facebook fan page.
Dear Bonnie and Movie Man please have a look at this video. I rest my case.
Do you accept guest posts?
On occasion, yes. I do however have strict guidelines of what I will accept. The guest post must be related to fashion, an original piece (not previously published), and spell checked thoroughly. The article may not promote a company or foundation in any way. Articles that do will not be accepted as a guest post. I do accept sponsored, paid posts, and those are handled differently.
If you would like to submit a guest post, please contact me first.
Do you pay for all the items that you wear?
About 90% of them yes. I do have sponsors who on occasion will send me items. These items are ones that I myself have personally picked out. I will always make note of the clothing/shoes/jewelry my sponsors have kindly provided. I will also include a link of where you may find the item yourself. (There is often a discount that I can provide you as well, so please be sure to ask!) Receiving packages from companies I love is always a special and exciting treat - however I thoroughly enjoy shopping for myself, and I can promise that Amber's Mouthwash will never become one of those blogs with five "c/o" in one outfit post!
