Vogue Parody – 73 Questions

I’m sure many of you have seen the infamous Kim Kardashian 73 questions for Vogue, which quickly became a meme goldmine. However for those of you who are unfamiliar, Vogue’s 73 questions is a series where different celebrities are asked quick-fire questions in order to get to know them. Bloggers have now taken inspiration from this idea and turned it into a tag where they answer the same 73 questions and then tag 12 other people to have a go! I was tagged by the lovely Chloe to step up to the challenge! Without further ado, here are my answers to the 73 questions and I hope you learn a little bit about me.

I’m actually not a coffee or tea fan so I’d go with a hot chocolate and a lemon muffin.
