How would you describe your style?

I would say its kind of unorthodox. I do what I want and wear what I want. I don’t try and follow any trends because I don’t really care about what they are doing.

Has your style always been unorthodox? Was there ever a moment where you realized you could be yourself and reflect who you were through your style?

Pretty much all throughout high school I used to get sent home almost everyday for dress code violations. There was never really an exact turning point. I’m usually edgy and free about what I wear. I’ve always felt I could express myself through fashion. And I always stick to less is more!

Do you have a favorite places to shop?

Ebay! I love it so much. It literally has everything and it’s way cheaper because it comes straight from China.

Have any tips for shopping online?

It’s really time consuming. Be patient because everything goes on sale. I spend half the day online shopping but it’s worth it because I get many bargains.
