WHO WOULD YOU SAY IS YOUR NUMBER ONE FASHION INSPIRATION, AND WHY?

I look at SO many fashionistas for inspiration. When I was growing up, there was no one that looked like me so I knew my style would be different. As I got older, the world of fashion finally caught onto the true expressions of a woman's body: the curves, the beautiful lumps, and dynamic bumps and it opened the door for models like Ashley Graham, Denise Bidot, and Hunter McGrady to shine a light that all bodies are beautiful. So I guess my fashion inspiration are all things confidence and grace.

 

A FASHIONISTA IS TYPICALLY DEFINED AS A STYLISH PERSON WHO LOVES ALL THINGS FASHION. DO YOU AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT?

The right side of my brain TOTALLY agrees with this statement and likes to believe she is one. I look at the catalogs for inspiration or go underground to what I like to call the 'subway runway'. The left side, however, says a true fashionista would never call herself one.

YOUR SKIN IS FLAWLESS. CAN YOU SHARE WITH US YOUR BEAUTY SECRET(S)??

First, water is key. Don't let the tight skin fool you, I drink my weight in water each day. Next, I would never be caught outside my house without a great moisturizer with SPF. Third, I've learned over the years that makeup looks best when it's flawless - #blend. Lastly, and not to sound pretentious, I've learned to not focus so much on my blemishes and that a red lip goes with EVERYTHING!!!!
