MY STYLE

Fashion has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. It all started with imagining how I’d feel walking into a room, making a statement through what I wore. As a kid, my mom would dress me for school, but I’ll never forget the thrill of the first day I got to pick out my own outfit—I think I was in middle school. From that day on, dressing up became something I took pride in. It’s a gift, a personal ritual, finding the pieces that truly reflect who I am.

When I look back at old photos, I see not just clothes but a visual diary of who I was at that time, what season of life I was in. Every piece I wore had a meaning, capturing how I felt in that moment. What we wear is more than just fabric; it speaks volumes about us. And I love that I now get to design and wear clothes that express exactly where I am in life.

There’s something beautiful about waking up every day and putting on clothes that I feel proud of. The art of dressing is something I hold dear. We’re all walking canvases, each of us designing how we want to show up in the world. Some of us are more abstract in our choices, others are like walking works of art, and sometimes we fall somewhere in between. The key is to find what works for you in the season you’re in, because seasons change, and so does our style. But through it all, the most important thing is to be authentic in how you present yourself to the world.
