What makes your style stand out?
I’m never trying to fit into ‘society’s norms’ so one day I’ll look whimsical, to flamboyant to sexy to feminine to even masculine and so much more. For me my style is genderless and very secure, I don’t question my outfit when I step outside and if I get eyes on me (even if it’s negative ones) all I know is i’ve left an impression in their head(s) and will always remember my outfit/style. I love colors but sometimes I also love my achromatic colors which doesn’t deter nor limit me in anything.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment is to see a piece I helped make or made completely on my own worn or walked. I love fashion in many aspects that becoming a fashion designer with a community and connections is such a goal of mine that I truly envision for myself. I would literally feel like I am in a dream if I get to make the vision(ssss) possible with determination and drive.
What would you do with $20,000?
I would automatically open a roth ira account and put a decent amount of the money in there (NOT TOUCH IT) and constantly keep putting in my personal money into it as well as time passes. With the other money that doesn’t go into that account, I would buy myself materials && possibly a new sewing machine because the one I have is the one that goes in and out of a table(a wee bit old). I’d also pour into my community as well for a multitude of reasons.
