Who or what has been your greatest fashion inspiration?
MAYA: Hmmmm…. I can say Life as it happens inspires everything about me, including fashion.
Do you think boutiques/e-commerce Stores like Jumia keep an eye of the fashion bloggers?
MAYA: I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place with it because I’m a proud owner of a fashion store (Maya’s Gallery ), but I have to admit that the Uganda market has not yet seen the significance of fashion bloggers and bloggers in general.
However, I’m optimistic because you can’t run from change.
Whom do you envision as your target reader?
MAYA: Millennial women and some men who might want to understand a millennial woman.
There are a lot of people following you on your fashion blog. How do you manage this huge number of followers?
