how did you come up with the name of your blog I was thinking of catchy names for my blog and all of them are of course taken! My boyfriend is half-Italian and that gives me an idea "Cappuccino" and that's how I came up with the name. 
when where you introduced to fashion I was a total bookworm before I became really interested in fashion! I would say my first attraction to fashion began in college. I started buying fashion magazines and paying more attention to what I wear and taking inspiration from other people. I remembered browsing style.com the entire fashion show videos one night instead of doing homework!
how do you describe your style My style has definitely evolved a lot since college. I used to wear long-sleeves and long skirts a lot. I thought those are the only things that look good on me! Then I discover that I can change my style and experiment with different looks. I like wearing things that are form-fitting and short. My style is influenced a lot by films like Lolita, Marie Antoinette, Romeo & Juliet, breakfast at Tiffany's, etc. 
what made you start a fashion blog Like every girl, I love reading fashion blogs in my spare time and get ideas from them. I don't really have anyone to talk about fashion with so having a blog and sharing my style with other girls who have the same interests is what makes me want to start a blog! what do you think you bring to the fashion blog world I guess I bring my point of view on style and hopefully, an inspiration :-)
how is your style different than everyone else I'm not sure if I'm really that different from everyone else. I wear what I think looks good on me and makes me happy. who is your inspiration There are a lot! I count fashion designers, editors, and fashion bloggers as my inspiration. 
what impression do you want to leave on the people that visits your blog Hmmm...that I'm a very friendly, happy person! Who is your favorite designer I love Marc Jacobs, Luella, Preen, Chanel, Rag & Bone and Stella MaCartney. What is the must have piece in your closet I can't live without my Topshop white jacket!Monday, 6 September 2010

how did you come up with the name of your blog "Heat" is the first half of my name (Heather) and I also love hot weather and outfits. "Storm" kind of represents a kind of randomness and electricity. "Heat storm" is also another term for a heat wave... I kind of feel like it's my Xmen alter ego. when where you introduced to fashion I think this must have coincided with the rise of the Spice Girls. I was baby, and I saved for months to buy a pair of shimmery blue sketcher platform sneakers. I was STOKED when the sales girls said I looked just like a real Spice Girl. how do you describe your style laid back, comfy, loose, but always short. Highly influenced by the late 80s/early 90s. Simple and sometimes silly. what made you 
start a fashion blog I had to do a web design unit for my advertising degree (which I just barely passed!) and we had to design our own blogs as an assignment. Around the same time I was also getting into fashion blogs like fashion toast and the clothes horse, and I just kind of rolled with it... what do you think you bring to the fashion blog world That's a hard question! I hope to project the idea that fashion can be beautiful, which I think is important, and it can also be fun and carefree and bring a smile to a stranger's face. how is your style different
than everyone else I don't often dress super uniquely, but I'm working on being more confident in what I think looks good. I guess I am different in that I NEVER discriminate against clothes or shops. I find the ugliest clothes and I still hold them up and think "I'm sure I could work that". Most of my clothes are from Op shops, Target, or some cheap, trashy store. I think true creativity is bred from having restrictions and looking for solutions in the most unlikely of places.who is your inspiration People who could look super hot and sexy, but instead choose to look creative or make a statement - Lady Gaga, Chloe Sevigny, Alexa Chung, the Olsens (sorry, I still don't know the difference), Victoria Beckham and Whitney Port. what impression do you want to leave on the people that visits your blog I guess I want to bring a sense of fun... I sometimes wear things I know are a bit ugly or weird, I just hope no one takes me too seriously.
who is your favorite designer Alexander Wang and Camilla and Marc for their loose and subtle sexy, and Jean Paul Gaultier for his costuming genius in The Fifth Element. what piece is a must have in your closet Distressed denim shorts - I used to be quite into black but I'm starting to warm to a lighter palette. I pair them either with a tight top tucked in, or a long loose top that almost hides them completely.
Stockholm Fashion Week: Textilhögskolan
I love when fashion weeks include students' work. It's so nice to see the fruits of these extremely talented students' labor. I love the sheer...insanity in some collections and the understated beauty in others (not that beauty is exclusive to subtle clothing -- don't get me wrong). Enjoy these! Unfortunately, the names were not listed on the Mercedes Benz site, so you'll have to guess at them.
