Monochrome, swag, confidence. Everytime I leave the house I am in an eye catching outfit. Custom tinted lenses and accessorizing complete it
What makes your style stand out?
Monochromatic colorful pieces paired with Austrian crystal custom necklaces and prescription sunglasses with custom tints. I’m an optician in the Upper East Side so I play with a lot of colorful tints that go with so many different outfits. I could have 3$ in the bank til my next paycheck but I will leave my house looking like a movie star or on a music video shoot. That’s something I can control and be creative and expressive about. It matters a lot to me to be a trendsetter and recognizable.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
Right now, it’s just when strangers compliment an outfit or glasses or jewelry. Future, it would be on red carpets or on tv in outfits I put together being well received by an audience. I have a dominant presence and the way I wear clothes is very confidently but also commands attention. Everything comes together into an original signature style that has been curated especially since moving to NYC 3 years ago.
What would you do with $20,000?
Pay off some bills, take some acting classes, give some money to my parents, SAVE some lol, buy some amazing clothes, try to change my life and elevate myself for the better. This money would make me feel more at peace. It’s important to take the next step and change my life, it’s time.
