50 Questions with NovaLanaLove’s Farina Opoku

by Husskie
February 12, 2019
in 50 Questions
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

One of Germany’s top style Instabloggers – with a following of 944K+ on the Gram – Farina Opoku was one of the early adopters to the platform, with her IG account @novalanalove steadily gaining a following as people tuned into her regular fashion and beauty updates. The success was mirrored on her blog of the same name – leading to Farina going on to capitalise on her influence with the launch of her fashion collection, aptly called Farina Opoku.

But despite her rise to stardom, Farina has remained down to earth – even creating an Instagram account ‘Never Failed So Good‘ that takes a laugh at herself with all the fail pics that never made her feed. And let’s just say that here at Husskie HQ, we will never get sick of these types of accounts.

Just before she headed off to Paris with Dior, we managed to grab a little of Farina’s time in order to take part in our latest Fast 50. Read on to find out a little more about life behind-the-feed for this esteemed style star.
