What makes your style stand out?

I never followed trends. When girls at school wore Lululemon pants and UGG boots, I went the opposite direction. Inspired by my mother, I learned to raid the decades through thrifting, and make it my own. I was dressing up long before “aesthetic” was a thing. In high school, I wore tutus just to stand out, I strove to be the weird girl. I’ve always said, life is the occasion. So why not dress in a way that makes you feel empowered, comfortable, sexy, fun, and continue discovering yourself?

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream fashion moment would be collaborating with a brand I love, like Crocs for example, to create a playful, personalized line that embodies my yacht-pop glamour. I’ve already ventured into design by working with a local artist to 3D-print custom Paris Pick logo earrings for my branding. A runway moment as a mid-size, short girly, a magazine feature, or styling a tour wardrobe with a major label would be a dream!

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, I’d continue saving to buy my mom and I a comfortable home, as she lives with osteoporosis and other health challenges. I want her to have a safe, supportive space. I’d also set aside funds for my future so I can continue giving back to the communities that raised me, supporting local music scenes and creating safe, creative spaces that inspire art and connection.
