If you run a rudimentary search on Instagram, you will come across plenty of different accounts to follow. But, when you need sound fashion advice, it can often be difficult to find one that best resonates with your personality and helps you get in touch with the latest fashion trends. Fashion celebrities on Instagram are a dime a dozen, but they are all trying to preach something of their own. It’s difficult to find one that best helps you promote your own personality and connect with the celebrity as well.
One of the best accounts that has been making the waves on the media recently is that of Valerie Grand. Valerie Grand is an Instagram star, a social media marketer, and a content creator. Valerie Grand might fall under the radar for many people, but she has been making quite a few waves as of late. In fact, we got the chance to sit down with her and discuss a few things, and we were pleasantly surprised with what she had to say regarding her views and opinions about different things. Her Insta handle is Valeriesaprincess, and she’s gotten quite popular. So, naturally, we had to sit down with her and find out how she’s been doing it! Here’s an excerpt from our interview.
Tell us a bit about yourself, Valerie?
I was born in small town, Switzerland, and since a very early age, I used to lead an incredibly active lifestyle. It was difficult for me to sit in one place for a longer period of time, and I was always on the move. I used to play quite a bit of tennis and golf, and I still do. Throughout my life, I have wanted to work on my health and fitness, and I think of it as a passion for me. I love going to the gym, working out, and taking part in a myriad of different activities. I only consume a plant-based diet, I exercise on a consistent basis and from a young age, I love to pose for pictures.
Plant based? What do you mean?
Well, I have been a strong proponent of eating healthy, and that means I only eat foods that are derived from plant sources. It resonates with my personality and makes me who I am. I can eat all kinds of fruits and vegetables, even legumes, and I make sure that I keep a strong check on what goes in my body. I love cooking and started a series on Insta “In the Kitchen with Val”.
Before Instagram, what did you do?
I decided to pursue a career as a social media celebrity in order to try and reach out to more people, and that’s how this concept came into view. Today, I have more than 100,000 followers, and I couldn’t be more thankful to them for supporting me. I am fluent in German, French, and English, and I guess that really works in my favor. It helps me connect to a diverse fanbase and remain in touch with the people that love me so. I still work at the hotel for now. I started my social media career to touch more people and making a bigger impact and also being an inspiration.
What are your plans?
Now that my Instagram account has been established, the plan is to look to the future and try to make it grow even more. I am in the middle of several paid marketing partnerships with numerous brands, and I am also working on creating my own collection that is going to help me to connect with my fanbase. I got married in 2017, and I have the best husband who is incredibly supportive of my job. I am very excited for all the things and plans that I have for the future.
