Fashion is an extension of my body. What I put on every day emits some weird energy as to how I’m feeling. Isn’t it funny how you would approach someone without sunglasses for directions before you’d ask someone with shades on? I think fashion is mystery, glamour, and something to inspire; it takes you to a dream world. Many people hate the industry and think of fashion as fickle, but for me, it creates who I am every day. You never get a second chance to make a first impression. I want my first impression to last a lifetime, and fashion helps me do that.
