FAQ

Q: Who runs woman-trend.com?
A: woman-trend.com is run entirely by me – Anna Ryzhuk. I’m a solo blogger wearing all the hats (writer, editor, photographer, coffee-maker… you name it!). I create all the content on the site and manage the day-to-day operations. When you read a post or get a response to a comment, it’s coming directly from yours truly.

Q: What topics does woman-trend.com cover?
A: woman-trend.com is a casual fashion, beauty, and style blog with a personal twist. You’ll find a mix of content here: outfit ideas and lookbooks, makeup and skincare tips, hair styling experiments, product reviews (from drugstore cosmetics to wardrobe essentials), and general lifestyle chatter related to style. I love exploring new trends and also reinventing classic looks, so the blog reflects that range – one day I might share how I styled a thrifted denim jacket, another day I’ll be talking about my favorite lipstick for summer. It’s basically all the fun, pretty things that inspire me, shared with you!

Q: Is Anna a professional stylist or beauty expert?
A: Nope – I’m not a certified professional in the fashion or beauty industry. My background isn’t in fashion design or cosmetology; I’m simply an enthusiast. Think of me as your friend who’s super into style and loves to play with new looks and products. I share tips and info based on my personal experience, research, and what I’ve learned over time. While I do my homework before giving advice (and I’ll mention sources if I quote experts), nothing on woman-trend.com is meant to substitute for professional advice. It’s friendly peer-to-peer inspiration! (Check out the Disclaimer page for more on this topic.)

Q: Why did you start woman-trend.com?
A: I started woman-trend.com as a creative outlet and a way to connect with others who love fashion and beauty. I’ve always enjoyed reading style blogs and watching beauty vlogs, and one day I thought, “Why not share my own take?” The blog began as a fun hobby – a place to document my outfits, review products I tried, and talk about trends I was curious about. Over time, it’s grown into a passion project where I get to interact with a wonderful community of readers. Simply put, I started woman-trend.com to share the joy I find in everyday style and to encourage others to have fun with fashion. It’s been an amazing journey so far!

Q: How often do you publish new posts?
A: I aim to post new content about once a week. I’ve found that weekly posts are a manageable rhythm for me to create quality content (since I juggle all aspects of the blog myself). Typically, you can expect a fresh article each week – for example, a new post every Monday or Tuesday (I’ll settle into a specific day and let you know). Sometimes I might drop an extra post if I have a lot to share (like during a seasonal trend launch or after a big event like Fashion Week), and occasionally life might delay a post by a few days. But generally, weekly updates are the plan! If you want to stay updated, you can subscribe (once I have a newsletter set up) or follow my social media for announcements.

Q: How can I subscribe or get updates from woman-trend.com?
A: I’m glad you want to stay in the loop! As woman-trend.com grows, I plan to introduce a newsletter where you can subscribe via email to get the latest posts and maybe some extra tips or behind-the-scenes content. Until that’s set up, the best way is to bookmark the site and check back weekly. You can also follow woman-trend.com on social media – I’ll usually post on Instagram (coming soon!) or Pinterest when a new blog post is live, along with some extra content. Additionally, if your browser has an RSS reader, you can subscribe to the blog’s feed. Rest assured, I’m working on easy subscribe options, and I’ll announce it on the site when they’re ready!

Q: Do you accept guest posts or contributions?
A: At this time, woman-trend.com is a personal blog and I don’t publish guest posts. The content is 100% written by me (Anna Ryzhuk), which helps keep the voice and style consistent. In the future, I might consider featuring interviews or Q&As with other style enthusiasts or experts, but I’m not open to generic guest post submissions or link exchanges. I do, however, love hearing readers’ ideas – so if there’s a topic you’d like me to write about, feel free to suggest it! And if you’re a fellow blogger or creator looking to collaborate in some way, you can always reach out (see the Collaborations page or Contact page) and we can talk about potential partnership ideas.

Q: Are your product reviews and recommendations biased because you earn money from them?
A: I strive to keep my reviews and recommendations honest and unbiased. Yes, I use affiliate links to earn a small commission on some products I recommend (see the Affiliate Disclaimer for details), and occasionally I may receive free products or sponsorship for a post (see the Disclosure page). But I never let that dictate what I say. If I love something, I’ll tell you why. If I think a product is just so-so or not worth it, I’ll either be upfront about its pros/cons or I might choose not to feature it at all. My credibility with you is far more important than making a few dollars. I also explicitly disclose in any post if there’s a sponsorship or free sample involved. The bottom line: all opinions on woman-trend.com are my own, from the heart. I want you to be able to trust that what you read here is genuine. And if you ever have questions about a recommendation, ask me! I’m happy to elaborate on why I do or don’t like something.

Q: How can I contact you or connect on social media?
A: I’d love to hear from you! For direct inquiries, feedback, or just to say hi, the best way is to email me at contact@woman-trend.com. I check that email regularly and do my best to respond in a timely manner. You can also connect with woman-trend.com on social platforms. While I’m still building up a presence, I plan to be active on Instagram, Pinterest, and possibly TikTok (for fun quick style videos). Once those accounts are live, I’ll link them on the site (likely in the header or footer). Additionally, you can leave a comment on any blog post – I read all comments and reply to many, so that’s a great way to engage as well. Don’t be shy; I’m friendly, I promise!

Q: Can I use your photos or content on my own site or social media?
A: I’m flattered that you’re interested in sharing my content! I work hard to create original photos and articles for woman-trend.com, so I do have some guidelines to protect that work:

• Sharing on Social Media: Feel free to share my blog posts by linking to them on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc. If you’re sharing on a platform like Instagram, you can repost an image as long as you tag or credit @womantrend (once the account exists) and don’t alter the image. A credit like “Photo by @womantrend” or a mention in the caption is perfect.

• Using Images on Your Site: If you’re a fellow blogger or running a website and you want to feature one of my images (for example, in a “Friday Favorites” roundup or an inspiration board), you may use one image from a post as long as you clearly credit “woman-trend.com” and link back to my original post. Please do not remove any watermarks (if present) and do not edit the image beyond cropping or compressing for web.

• Using Text Content: You are welcome to quote a short excerpt from my blog (a couple of sentences) with a proper credit and link back. However, you may not republish full posts or substantial portions of my writing without my explicit permission. Plagiarism isn’t cool for anyone.

• No Commercial Use: None of my content (photos or text) can be used for commercial purposes without prior agreement. This means you can’t take my images to sell a product, or copy my post to drive traffic to an ad-laden site. If you’re a brand or business interested in using my content, please contact me and we can discuss collaboration or licensing.

• When in Doubt, Ask: If you’re unsure whether your intended use is okay, please reach out and ask. I’m usually happy to collaborate or grant permission for friendly requests, as long as proper credit is given.

I appreciate you spreading the word about woman-trend.com and will generally approve sharing that respects the above guidelines. Thanks for understanding and for supporting original content creation!

Q: Do you work with brands or do collaborations?
A: Yes, I’m open to collaborations with brands and other creators – if they’re a good fit for woman-trend.com and my audience. My primary focus is on fashion, beauty, and lifestyle, so I typically collaborate with brands in those areas (for example, a clothing line, a makeup company, a skincare brand, etc.). Collaborations can take many forms: product reviews, sponsored posts, giveaways for readers, social media takeovers, you name it. However, I’m very selective. I only partner with brands that I genuinely like or find interesting, and that I believe my readers would benefit from knowing about. Any collaboration will be carried out transparently (see Disclosure for how I handle sponsored content). If you’re a brand representative reading this: hello! Feel free to check out my Collaborations page for more info and get in touch via email. For my readers: I will always put your trust first, and I won’t team up with brands that don’t align with the fun, positive spirit of woman-trend.com.
