11 Questions I was given:
1. What's your life motto?
YOLO. (Joking...) I read the Fountainhead and it shaped the way I live my life. Ayn Rand speaks to individual rights and how it's imperative that you never sell out. You must do things for you and that will in turn help other people.
2. Favorite Lyrics?
"I'll be the best or nothing at all."
3. How did you fall in love with fashion?
I've always had this impulse to be different and stand out, but also look good. Even when I was young I've always felt that when I look good, I feel good and I'm unstoppable. So, my style slowly started developing and I had my own style and point of view and people seemed to like it.
4. What's your favorite piece of clothing?
I have a purple skirted coat from ASOS. My absolute favorite thing! It's sort of the epitome of my style. It's vintage, classy and a little dramatic. I absolutely love it.
5. Favorite country?
'Murica! I've never had an impulse to live anywhere else and even though we get made fun of, I really believe in what this country was built on.
6. Bravest moment?
I have a big problem with communicating with people, not in a social sense, but in the sense that I avoid confrontation. So, I'm very passive aggressive about a lot of what I do. So, whenever I stand up for myself or tell people how I feel, it really takes all of my courage.
7. First love?
I fell in love with singing and music early on in life. And to this day I still love it.
8. Favorite artist (musically or otherwise)?
Queen was my first great musical love.
9. What's your best feature?
Although it's not all that noticeable, my eyes change color depending on the light and what I'm wearing. They go from blue to green and anywhere in between.
10. Hugs or Kisses?
I suppose it depends on who from.
11. What fabric would your dream clothing be made of?
Chiffon, chiffon, CHIFFON!
