Peerless You

Born and brought up in Prayagraj UP, Shragvee Shukla is an engineering graduate currently working as senior software engineer in an IT [company]. She started blogging in 2016 for the fashion and lifestyle category and named it PeerlessYou which means you are incomparable. Hence her journey began.

How did you first get into blogging and what inspired you?

I was always into fashion, I used to keep a track what is in trend and what is not, most of the friends used to take a suggestion from me, it was then I thought to give it a try, initial 6 to 8 months were really tough , I got to know in this field content as well as followers matters a lot and I have to make my content really strong but then this is a pain , people have a perception that blogging is really easy but it is not for one picture it takes hours and hours. Well now its been 2 years 4 months and I am settled, I have worked with 30 plus brands and growing gradually.

And now I also run a PR firm by the name Pr Roshra.

What according to you are your qualities that help you in blogging?

Quality that I have is I am very bold and clear with my thoughts, I always make sure that product I am talking about is genuine and it is really good. I prefer quality over quantity and believe in doing justice with the brand that I am associated with.

How do you manage your time to run your blog efficiently.

For your passion, you don’t have to take the time out it just happens automatically. Perhaps adding to this I don’t waste my time I make a week plan beforehand and then work accordingly. So guys just go with the planner 😀

What do you do in your spare time?

It usually depends what mood I am in. I might sing and record a song, I may watch Netflix, read a novel or just chill with friends and family.

What was the most challenging moment in your blogging career so far?

Attracting audience and fetching reach in order to show my work.

Can you name some of your favourite bloggers and why they are your favourite?

I love Bethany Mota because of her quirkiness and I love her DIYs

Who was your first style icon?

I can’t name one because I believe in stalking 😀

Your most memorable project so far?

My all projects are memorable but yes I would say my second project, the first time I got paid for the work .

What 3 things does anyone starting in your field need to know?

1. Patience is a virtue, give your best, things will fall in place automatically.

2. Don’t copy anyone. Try to be different and speak only about the product for which you feel genuine.

3. Don’t buy followers which is now a days so common just ask yourself before you jump into this ” when you gonna say Hi guys , to whom are you actually talking to ” or ” Hi guys I had a tiring day at shoot and I would love to show my WORK ” who is going to see that 😀

In short just be peerless that is incomparable.
