General questions
1. What are your inspirational sources? Who in your life has influenced your style? Who/ what is your creativity-boost concerning your outfits?
Firstly my mother, whose amazing sense of style certainly was a great influence at an early age.
Other great inspirational sources for me are everyday impressions that I get from fashion magazines and other fashion blogs. The first thing I do every morning for example is sitting down with a cup of coffee and checking all the updates on Bloglovin’.
2. Who takes your photos?
Depends. Sometimes I take them myself, sometimes other friends as well who are into making photos, like David A. who took the photos of these posts for example: David Shoot 1.0, Nonchalant and Push Start.
3. Where about in Austria do you come from?
I come from Salzburg. And I LOVE it! :)
4. What does rohafashion stand for?
It’s a combination of the respective two letters of my first and last name. :)
5. How long does it take you to get dressed every day?
That depends. Sometimes I get up and immediately know what I want to wear that day. It takes longer though when I have one special piece of clothing in mind I want to wear so bad that I have to style the rest of my outfit around it then.
Beauty
1. Please tell me all about your haircare? How do you make your hair look so perfect?
Ahhh well I don’t want to disappoint anyone here, but I have a confession to make: I’m veeerrrryy lazy concerning my haircare. I go to the hairdresser about once a year, for example - shame on me, I know!

Haircare products:
I always use random products. Right now I’m using a baby hair shampoo my mother bought in Italy to wash our dog and doesn’t need it anymore (ok, that’s kind of embarrassing now). It’s from Garnier by the way and it really doesn’t sting in the eyes...just in case you’re interested.
However, after using my fancy baby-shampoo (or any other shampoo I competently decided to buy because of its package design) I almost always apply some moisturizing conditioner or mask. This is a great way of protecting it from becoming dry and strawy.
Styling:
Another confession: I absolutely hate blow-drying my hair and that’s why I only use my hair dryer when I have to leave the house soon and it’s freezing outside. Otherwise I just go out and pretend wearing a fancy wet-look, haha.
I’m more into the natural, beachy look, so I wear my hair open 90% of the time. My hair is a little bit wavy by nature (during summer more than during winter somehow) and I really love this effortless look. When I feel like it, I pin my hair up in a quick updo, like this fun-bun or I use my curling iron to make my hair more wavy
There is only one styling product I love: volume hairspray!
Colour:
I’m wearing my natural hair colour. The blonde highlights I have are just from the sun. I haven’t been dying my hair since the age of 15 (when I had my hair tinted at the hairdresser just one shade darker than my natural one..talking about taking risks here, ha).
2. How long have you been wearing bangs?
I’ve had them for about half a year now. Right now, I’m thinking about letting it grow in again...I always need variation.
3. What make-up do you use? Do you have any favourite make-up brand?
My everyday-make-up consists of powder foundation, blusher, some eyeliner (ususally dark-brown) and black mascara. When I go out I usually add eyeshadow and I use black(sometimes liquid) eyeliner instead of the dark-brown one.
Regarding make-up colours I think brown, green and golden shades suit me best.
Make-up brands:
I’m pretty much into MAC make-up and I love Lancôme (especially for mascara and bronze blusher). There are also some great products from cheaper make-up brands I use, like Essence.
Workout
1. How do you stay so slim? What is your weekly workout-routine?
I love sports: cycling, surfing, windsurfing, yoga, playing tennis, horse-riding, snowboarding, and so on. I love outdoor-sports but I also go to the gym when the weather is bad. Then I attend cycling or yoga classes. I only hate jogging - it’s evil!
2. You are so thin and I adore your slim legs - are you on a special diet?
No, I hate diets. But I believe in portion-control, that means I eat more small portions throughout the day. I also love to cook and I try to cook everything from scratch and use only fresh ingredients. I also like to try new recipes with friends, that’s so much fun. I hate ‘low-calorie’ or ‘light’ products because I believe it’s more important to eat fresh food and to have a balanced diet in order to stay slim and healthy.
Random things about me...
1. I think it would be interesting to know random, little tidbits about you, like what's your favourite animal.
Ok, I think it’s best if I just list a few random things about me here. :)
- I love all animals (well, except for spiders I think....but I don’t want to see them dead either, I prefer great rescue-actions including a sheet of paper and some sort of bowl/glass). I seriously start to cry when an animal dies on TV (even if it's ficitonal). And I have a special voice when I’m talking to animals - getting worse when talking to baby animals.
- I’m always ready for adventures. I’ve already been bungee jumping and skydiving for example..and I really want to do it again.
- Christmas absolutely is my favourite time of the year. I love drinking mulled wine and eating cookies and going to the Christmas market at night and all the festive lights, the snow and the richly decorated tress...I could go on forever like this.
- I’m impatient....and I tend to get ill-humoured when I’m hungry. In case you know the Snickers TV-commercial: I’m Jeff.
- I loooove green vegetables. I even eat the green peppers that everyone else hates so much.
- I hate nuts.
- I read loads of books. My all-time favourites are: A painted house - John Grisham, Perfume - Patrick Süskind, Bridget Jones’s diary - Helen Fielding, High Fidelity - Nick Hornby and all books from Sophie Kinsella (she’s hilarious!).
- I speak German, English, Spanish, French and a little bit of Swedish....but I absolutely hate maths and I'm so glad there's a calculator on my i-Phone!
