How do vintage pieces inspire your style and content?
I love taking secondhand finds and styling them. I love bold colors, structure, mixing prints, anything like that. [I love] to be able to show that you can easily weave unique vintage pieces into your wardrobe every day, outside of just trends.
Who or what inspires your fashion taste?
My grandmother, because she was the first person I saw who was extremely fashion-forward—she loved suits and loved anything with structure.
Which piece in your closet do you love the most?
It’s a houndstooth and plaid green blazer. I think it’s so significant because it reminds me of my grandmother.
When you’re putting together an outfit, what’s your starting point?
I always start with my accessories. Accessories are my favorite thing to play with.
Who are some of your style icons?
My number one is Tracee Ellis Ross. Very chic, very bold, very effortless, like that girl. Lauryn Hill, she does a really nice job of mixing comfy with chic. She also has a really nice way of demonstrating street style, but also a feminine look. Rihanna, obviously. I want to pay homage to our girl, Diane Keaton. She was fully clothed, but she would serve a look.
What advice would you give someone trying to find their style today?
Don’t be so caught up on what people have told you to be. Learn how to break down those barriers, because you’re never going to be able to fully see your full potential if you’re so caught up on what the world is telling you to do and what people are telling you to do. You have to try every little thing in order to really figure out who you are.
