LOOP BEAUTY: Beauty for women of colour. Perfect your look in one place.

Interview with Esther Areola

Tell us about yourself - What got you into Insta, Youtube, and posting your outfits online?

I'm a fashion and lifestyle blogger from London. I joined instagram when it was first released, I love the fact that it's an avenue for me to share my passion for beauty, lifestyle and fashion plus I've always had a passionate relationship with the camera hence the reason why majority of my posts are fashion related.

Who is your ultimate style icon?

I don't have a particular style icon. However, I do appreciate how people use style to express their culture, religion, thoughts and the body. Over the years my appreciation for this continues to grow with my experiences.

Aside from a wallet and phone, what do you keep in your bag at all times?

Carmex! Girl, dont nobody wanna be seen with dry lips!

If you could throw a dinner party with any three people, dead or alive, who would you choose and why?

Solange, James Cameron . I would have to include two of my closest friends as it wouldn't be a dinner party without them. Solange because I respect her creative eye. I feel that she visualises what could be perceived as a basic image and challenges your thoughts. Also, she became a young mother which I can also relate to. James Cameron because he wrote and directed 2 of my top favourite movies of all time (Titanic & Avatar).

What does beauty mean to you?

Beauty means happiness. When you are happy, there will always be beautiful energy around you, and you will always create your best work. It is important to remember the things that really matter in life, to be grateful and humble.

Do you have any life mottos that you live by?

'Be unapologetically you!', 'Be Real' and 'Live and love life!'
