Instagram Influencer Spotlight On: Tatenda Muzondo @themainstreetofficial

1) Tell us a little about yourself. What are you doing now and where do you come from?

I am a fashion student at Curtin University in Western Australia. I was born in Zimbabwe but was raised in England for 10 years and I’ve spent the last six years of my life in Perth and couldn’t be happier! I officially started my blog this year after realising I just have so much to say about anything and everything!

2) What are your topics of interest? What do you post on Instagram the most?

I love fashion and everyday style! I post my everyday style on Instagram, something that everyone can relate to! Especially on a student budget!

3) How did your Instagram name come about?

My dream to go to America and my obsession with aesthetically pleasing streets! Streets lined with trees in Autumn or a high street in London!

4) What are some apps you use to edit your photos? Share with us your photo-editing routine!

My go to app is VSCO, my favourite pre set filters are A5 and HB1. Most of my photos are edited by myself. I increase the exposure, contrast and fade! When I’m posting a picture with an announcement or graphics I use pic monkey or typic! I’ve been loving typic lately!

5) Any Instagrammers whom you really like? Which Instagrammer inspires you the most?

Amelia Liana and Aspyn Ovard are two instagrammers that inspire me to enjoy life doing what I love!

6) If there’s one thing your fellow Instagrammers just gotta try now, what’s it gonna be?

Cadbury and Oreo chocolate! Aside from food, the new app Carousell is the best way to sell any clothes you don’t want anymore!

7) What’s your favorite part about being an influencer?

I love talking so my favourite part of being an influencer is having a voice that people want to hear!

8) What are some of your top tips to brands for running campaigns? How do you maintain authenticity?

I think being tried and tested is the best way to maintain authenticity and to be truthful, list all pros and all cons the consumers can make a well informed decision.

9) What would your advice be on the importance of quality and original content?

Be true to yourself, in an age where every Tom, Dick and Harry is on social media, you don’t want to be a carbon copy! Being yourself is what will make you stand out and it will always be hard work but so worth it!

10) What do you like best about partnering with brands?

I like the fact that I can help people discover new products and it takes the fuss of trying so many different products until you find the right one! Partnering with brands makes you step out of your comfort zone, it keeps you on your toes and bursting with creativity!
