00:38 – “I want the clothes to be the foil to the jewelry”
01:10 – “I’m traveling, but still a serve”
01:54 – “My style derives from ‘90s Black femme archetypes”

  Vogue definitely plants people and asks them to dress up for a pretend interview, then acts like they’ve walked off the street.

it would be a better world if the majority of people had this mind set, instead of the troglodytes we’re currently stuck with. …. These People walk in Beauty and they share it everywhere they go, they change the world around them just by Being. how about you?

I love how thoughtful people are about the why behind their style choices. It’s part of the magic of life. Big cities give people freedoms that seem small but mean everything ❤
