My style is my self expression, and my imagination is incredibly wild! This is the way I have fun, I like to think that spreads to others
What makes your style stand out?
I live for bold colors/patterns. I don’t like to look like anyone else so I style myself in bold looks because it’s fun, and it makes me feel like the star I am. In my mind I’m shooting an ad campaign in real life, so it’s a little bit of sharing with the world what I feel in my internal world. It’s usually an expression of my emotions and I’m always happy to discuss my fashion moment.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment is really a combination of moments. Growing up in the 90s supermodel era, I always wanted to be one because I felt I was. Attending fashion shows is like church but what I really want is to be in the show and also doing wild editorial shoots with fantastic clothing to showcase the art that is fashion. So much is business focused now but I love the art.
What would you do with $20,000?
A wise woman once said The Eye Has to Travel, and that’s what I have to do. I love watching and observing people, and getting a new perspective. All of that informs my personal style and I’d love to see and try new things. Spend a couple weeks in Italy watching the people and perusing the archives of the fashion houses. I want to study my passion and evolve to something greater!
