About Me

Hello, my name is Samantha. 

Thank you so much for visiting Fake Fabulous!

Let me introduce myself...

I am a 43 year old working mother, who lives in Scotland with her husband (the chief photographer), the youngest two of our four children and a (very scruffy) dog called Jake. 

I work part-time as a Biomedical Scientist and I spend the rest of the week blogging!

Why "Fake Fabulous"?

Fake fabulous is my way to describe trying to look good (fabulous), without having the figure (or budget) to actually be fabulous... hence the 'fake'.

I am just a normal woman making the most of what genetics, life and three pregnancies has done to my body.
I have a tiny clothing budget and never visit a beauty salon.
Most of my money is spend on bills, and our 4 children.
BUT...
I still want (and deserve) to look good.

Faking confidence is something I do on a regular basis and fashion is the perfect way to do it!

Fake Fabulous is all about having fun with fashion!

Why start blogging when you are in your 40's?

I decided to blog about style for three main reasons:-

• I love to write. I can ramble on for ages about the things I am interested in, and often do!
• I can be lazy, so knowing I need to 'blog' stops me sliding down that slippery slope of comfort dressing.
• I hope I can inspire other women to be a little braver , appear confident and have fun with fashion!
