Spilling all the tea🍵Are influencers rude? Q&A | Tamara Kalinic

[@eluby]

No-one that I follow has ever given such an honest look into the industry. This is MUCH appreciated. 💖

[@stylishlyelle6172]

Honestly babe, thank you for the transparency! I don’t think you sounded arrogant at all. I love when people know their self worth after they’ve worked hard to be where they are. Same goes for me now being a full time CEO, it’s just knowing your worth!❤

[@evijar1251]

Tamara, your hard work shows. I just rewatched some of your old videos (5 years back) and I love love love the amazing evolution you have gone through - style and confidence. You were fantastic and charming back then as well but your journey literally blows my mind!

[@TheDDBProject]

I don't usually leave comments on KZbin, and this is probably my fifth one, but Tamara (if you read this) - I just want you to know that you have done an amazing job the past 10 years. As someone who previously worked in fashion, got sick of it and left, you are one of the very few reasons why I still follow what's going on in the industry. And just like you, I truly believe that there are way bigger and better things waiting for you in the future.

[@Blessed.S]

I’m a frumpy mom of 4… my low key casual life has nothing to do with you. But deep down I’ve always had a love and appreciation for high end fashion. I’ve followed your channel for years and I have to say I’ve seen quite the evolution of your career. This video just proves the obvious! You have gotten where you are because you have amazing work ethic. In any field, in any career, that’s crucial! Congrats. You’re success is well deserved. So glad you have the timeline breakdown of how long it’s taken you. I feel a lot of ppl think being social-media famous is an easy, get rich quick gig, and I beg to differ!

[@flawbabe]

Honestly, I think your personality is not replaceable, being kind, honest, grounded and always so hardworking and grateful about everything. It is admirable especially in an environment full of the opposite qualities. Thank you for being a role model!

[@AnnieRud1]

As someone with ADHD who struggles in social situations this was really validating for me. Both the way you reflected about your friend and you being honest about also experiencing exlusion and disrespect. I have followed you for many years, and to be honest your positive attitude and social skills has been as important as the fashion. I would love to see more content about how you handle different social situations! Thank you for beeing real ❤️👏🏻

[@karenphipps7532]

As an influencer you work extremely hard to maintain your respectability, honesty and professional experience to develop your trustworthiness within the parameters of your ‘job’! Your viewers and subscribers know they can count on you to be truthful.

[@OlyaMcDS]

This is the most interesting Q&A about the industry that I have ever watched. Thank you for being so honest and taking time for every answer!

[@DyDyxoxo]

Love your honesty and confidence. You worked hard to be in this position and you know your worth 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@PatVT1010]

You’re definitely not a “snowflake” Tamara. Love you girl!

[@savannahglebe5165]

I keep getting Influencer recommendations on my feed, you’re hands down the best and soooo lovely ❤

[@cas.stacks]

I appreciate your transparency, as you get more n more established, I see you getting more comfortable sharing more tidbits n it’s inspiring, especially as your work ethic can be applied to any industry.

[@colisa7]

WOW!!! Tamara, this was so good! You are so honest, down to earth and accessible. That and many other qualities is what separates you from the rest of the influencers, plus you are actually a big time influencer! I only hear good feedback about you as a person from other people. Thank you for this video!!! You rock!!!

[@colvillesomma]

I know this video is old but I just need to say this solidified for me why I love your content… the substance is there behind it all.

[@cemhugen3187]

This is exactly what I needed today. You are my biggest inspiration for years . Love you, Tamara. You are an angel 🥺

[@jessicamalfa9538]

Tamara, It is obvious your integrity is not arrogance. You have made your place in the fashion industry from your worth. Everyone should respect their own value as it is earned. BONUS: You are a nice, kind person. Xx

[@2104natasha]

I have been a subscriber of yours for many years but stopped watching your videos during the beginning of the pandemic because my mind was otherwise occupied. I am not fashionable or have the budget for luxury pieces but I always enjoyed your content. Then somehow your engagement video appeared in my feed and I watched it and was so happy for you. I then started watching many of the videos, the ones introducing your then boyfriend (now fiance), vlogmas, travel vlogs etc. I love your relationship, how deep and thoughtful Filippo is, how happy you both are and how smart you are. I should have commented on each video instead of putting everything I want to say in this one...oh well. All this to say, I loved this video. Not because of drama but because of how transparent and honest you are. It's so refreshing to watch. And I learned a lot about how the fashion industry works. Best wishes always, to you and your fiance. XXX

[@jellybeanparis584]

You are confident because you chose to use your BRAIN & became a Pharmacist! This gives you self-assurance because you know that you are intelligent. Those who pursued only their looks, won’t have the confidence that you have. Congratulations Tamara on all your success, as a Pharmacist & in Fashion ! ❤ from Los Angeles !

[@lienebuldere2127]

Tamara, I have been waching you for years and I can say, that you are so genuine person. Even if your circumstances have changed through the years-youre great personality still shines through. even if i can't really relate to your lifestyle now, I still can enyoy your videos and sometimes it's not the case with other influencers.

[@yvonnemacinnes8763]

I have been following you for about 2 years and really enjoy your content. this particular video was very very interesting and enlightening.I now understand what an influencers actual job involves;lots of hard work. Keep it up Tamara i love watching you and Philipo

[@ng4u2]

You are the only one I follow and love to watch your fashion week vlogs, now I started to watch a new influencers join the field lately, it will show how humble and nice if you get socialized with diversity influencers like dark skin beginners for example. Love you Tamara

[@victoriapanlilio3494]

I just viewed your vlog on when you lost everything and you were w your nephew. Humble beginnings. You must be proud of yourself. You have come a long way. Remember always where you come from. Congratulations Tamara!

[@peg59567]

Lovely conversation, thank you for your honesty and openness

[@BogdanaMariaGiurgiu]

I don't think this could ever be perceived as arrogant from someone starting their journey/working in this industry. I think you're being very transparent and honest about how hard but in the end beautiful working in fashion is, unlike other influencers that only portrait this as a easy job to get.

[@annamaybourdon8507]

I have recently discovered your videos. You have "grit," a great work ethic, and a kind heart. You have a very different style, and I enjoy seeing fashion through your eyes. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder; as long as your loved ones see you, who cares what others think!

[@nwms5597]

I honestly think you're the best one out there... There's this one influencer that always says shady things about "Cool Girls." Everyone can be cool in their own way... There's room for everyone. 🙂

[@jennifermcmillan2588]

You’re just inspirational as a human .. not just in fashion but hearing you speak about confidence and knowing what you want ! Also I doubt you entered a room where you are not seen as beautiful!!!

[@ilkiz19]

I found this chat so genuinely genuine

[@KarevaDarya]

It’s so refreshing to listen to such a sound and honest conversation about the industry❤

[@tianasoa23]

What can I say … I love you even more ❤ 1)You are not arrogant at all … it’s your work and as you said business is business 2) You are so inspiring and what I like the most is your transparency and honesty . 3) Can’t believe I’ve just heard that , how people can be so bad ?! But to be honest I can believe , in the fashion industry there is a lot of competition and I am not an influencer just a client advisor (in luxury boutiques) and I’ve experienced last year bullying so … not easy at all but Thank God I am strong 💪🏽 And you know what ? Karma is more b*** than them so let’s time do is things ! Sending you Love and hugs T. 🇲🇬

[@dixilica1107]

Draga Tamara , pratim tvoj put vec jako dugo. i samo zelim da ti kazem svaka cast na svemu i samo napred!!! Sve najbolje ti zelim i Srecan rodjendan!!

[@Nubianette]

I love your point of giving people the benefit of the doubt. It only helps, not hurts the situation.

[@marikatamm8911]

Tamara, real beauty is felt, you just are being you in this competitive industry. I have never been interested in fashion in such a passionate way before but something has changed and I look so much forward to each your video (have followed you soon one year). I now understand much more what's going on in luxury fashion, you also educate people who follow you. :) It's meaningful what you do and much wider than just luxury fashion. Much love!

[@MadameJohnnyDepp]

You're inspirational to a lot of people. I love that you keep it real!

[@inwhites]

I am learning from you a lot of things that can be applied in life in general.

[@shivangrawat3]

I have nothing but just love for u. I patiently wait for all the videos and see each one of them. I love the way u work u deal with stuff and how grounded u are with all that u have. I want nothing but happiness and lots of happiness for you. Love u

[@gpaton9643]

Tamara, you are an amazing inspiration for ALL young women. Your honesty and genuineness shine through. Thank you for your words. You are inspirational

[@justjuliejohnston]

Tamara is inspiring to old women too!😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@bisolaspice]

Omg Tamara, make more of these types of videos. I love it so much!!

[@helenmccracken929]

I love your realism! It’s great that you tell people that being tough is part of your success! Same here!

[@monarch6443]

Such a wonderful attitude about shows you decline. Your honesty and transparency is one of the reasons I subscribe. Thank you!

[@sophieulrich-wurm8092]

Your make up is on point. Please can you do a tutorial?

[@angelwashburn1936]

Thank you so much for giving such honest and eye opening answers letting us know more about your work love you 😊

[@sandrinethepharmacist]

One more comment Waouhhh Tamara the video I didn’t know I need. From a pharmacist to another confident is key

[@makeyourpurpose]

THIS was one of the best videos to get behind the scenes insight, brava!

[@katesun6256]

Who doesn’t loveee this woman?? ❤️❤️xx

[@beatadianabota1167]

Thank you Tamara for this honest summary, it was really interesting, also entertaining. I kindly appreciate this hard work during fashion week. I had the opportunity to gain some experience behind the fashion shows, this is such a hard work for the designers, models, assistants etc.

[@goldsand]

Love this transparency and you! Motivating me to get my butt to work in the design industry

[@ligayaleduc856]

you’re so honest and articulate, so interesting to listen thank you❤

[@liliesofthefield5310]

It's interesting you say that about being socially experienced, I've heard of influences being socially awkward or not very friendly at events or in person, it makes a lot of sense, maybe they are use to speaking to a camera so they appear to be outgoing when they are really introverted or not use to speaking to people they don't know

[@IvanaPerkovicOfficial]

I so love the attention to details you pay to even the set of a Q&A! You look stunning and somehow I always learn something new from watching your Q&A's (in this case the bts of the pharmacy world!). Beauty & Brains, love it!

[@melaniepeemans8222]

This was so interesting, you deserve all that you have. I think you need to be ‘hungry’ for success and be prepared to work hard for it. You show how it’s done and I know there is more to come for you, bravo. 🎉

[@lundi44]

GREAT segment. I admire your resilience in a such a difficult industry. You totally deserve your success.

[@marietirekidis1750]

Youre so interesting and genuine. Love watching your content. All the best to you. Your parents must be so proud.

[@JessicaGioglioTravelLifestyle]

I think this is your best Q&A yet! Thank you for keeping it real with us ❤️🙌

[@BeccaChic]

This was so good. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@mjaumjauling376]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO! Thank you for your honesty and thank you for always trying to give back to young people so they can learn from your experiences ❤️

[@debspringchannel831]

This is funny because yesterday I watched your Milan's video and I was thinking that I couldn't be surrounded by so many people and be fake or shallow... Thank you for your honesty... continue to be the Beautiful soul that you are inside and out.

[@linvarrow]

Very interesting vlog...your insight, mature way of looking at and accepting certain situations is very wise and actually smart...you are also very fair when dealing with awkward and occasionally difficult people..often giving them the benefit of the doubt..I like you.

[@queeniearthur7439]

I love how open and honest you were! Loved this Q&A session!

Would love for you to do a video on your team members! So interesting to know who helps you create content behind the scenes

[@francinelambert4914]

I appreciated the honesty of this video.

[@lisahirst2929]

Love your honesty ❤️

[@ivettema730]

You’re so much move than a pharmacist. You belong at every show. Yes, you’re a trained pharmacist, but also now a trained fashion expert. And your pharmacy background definitely adds to your brand, morals, and lifestyle. And of course you know that those mean girls are all just jealous of you, which means your doing something right.

[@martamariasellaroli4374]

So many interesting insights! Thank you Tamara🥰

[@AngelissimaASMR]

We love you Tamara! I admire all of your hard work and persistence ✨ People can be so weird. You are cut from a different cloth and I'm happy you've stayed true to who you are 💖 I'd like to hear more about your story of how you transitioned from Pharmacy to Blogging to Influencing and being the Icon that you are now 💎 When did you decide that you wanted to change your life and how did you do it?

[@debrajarnagin7101]

Your very understanding which usually comes with maturity but your ahead if your time

Tamara you are so honest... Its so refreshing to hear your truth especially in this busy out for yourself word that we seem to live in without any consideration for others I think you are so inspiring and i would love to see you on Ted talk or talk in schools to young girls /boys who maybe have dreams to becoming an influencer / running a business /accounts /dealing with people etc etc.... Thank you for always always been so honest .. inspiring... so lovely.. kind hearted.. caring.. so true to your own self worth. I applaud you. 👏🌹♥️

[@cristinamih3159]

Wow what a video! So real, we definitely need more videos like this xx

[@senta4950]

Dear Tamara, what an honest open q&a as always. I truly need to mention about that you are not the most beautiful . Honestly to me you are drop dead gorgeous, this is not only talking about the outside, your inside is pure and beautiful in my opinion that makes someone beautiful. You can be beautiful on the outside but if your inside is not all beauty fades. Same if someone is beautiful (because in my opinion no one is ugly unless your character or heart is) from the outside and the inside is more beautiful, that to me is real beauty! The things people said about you trust me it’s their insecurities and jealousy, must be so exhausted to be like that. And about your style, I honestly believe you have set an example inspiration for a lot of people. I love your style. Needed to get that out of my heart😅 As I mentioned before you deserve everything you have and so much more because you work hard for it and with passion. Love from Spain 🥰

[@Bucketa]

[@nellwashere87]

Girl, where the blazer from? 😍

[@geogirlforever]

@tamara Good on you, for not mentioning names. Even though sometimes that’s what people deserve, but it only puts you down to their level. A piece of advice someone told me when I was in my late teens early 20’s. He said, no matter how mad you may be and how badly you want to tell someone off, never burn your bridge because you never know when you’ll cross it again. That’s such great advice and I’ve stayed faithful to it. In my case, fast forward 20 years and this same person is back in my life, but now I’m in the authority level and the boss of me. All those mean girls or guys flapping their lips are just heading towards burning their own bridge. Someone of importance is going to get wind of it and not want to do any business with them. Good for you Tamara, in the end you always find out who the loyal ones are. PS, yes, you are pretty and most importantly loving to the ones most important around you. I can see it in your nephews eyes. That young man loves his Auntie. 🙋🏻‍♀️🇨🇦❤️🙏🏻

[@amalieha]

Loved this video. You are such an inspiration and someone to look up to. Definition of girl boss 🏅
