You and fashion?
Fashion has fascinated me since I was a little girl. After my experience in beauty I started working in fashion pr. I followed my heart and dreams and decided to work for myself after 3 years of experience. The best decision ever. I wake up every morning with a big smile on my face, happy about the new day. Curious to see what the new day will bring. I’m working 18 hours a day, and enjoy every single minute. Fashion is my drug.
How do you define your style?
Androgynous with a feminine twist.
How is it to be part of the Italian fashion scene? What does an ordinary look like for you?
My style is different from the classic Italian style. But my style fits the Italian scene since I love to play with prints and colors. It’s a combination between the North European style and the Milanese style. I love to combine oversized trousers, with a basic tee, sneakers and a colorful bag. I play with color with my accessoires. If I wear a skirt or a dress I style them with flats or sneakers, the Italian girl would have chosen for a pair of heels.
What sets you apart from other online influentials?
My short, blond/greyish hair cut and my boyish style. The way I style and combine. My looks are always recognizable.
Who or what is your source of inspiration?
Caroline de Maigret she is effortless cool. She can pull off anything. Next to Caroline, I love the Olsen Twins, only they can wear a pair of sneakers to a red carpet event. I gain my inspiration from magazines, Instragam, Pinterest but most of all daily life. I travel a lot and love to get inspired by other cultures.
In what way are you conscious about recycling or sustainable fashion?
I love to buy second hand clothing and I love to sell my clothing through online boutiques. It’s amazing how fashion can get another life. The next-closet is a great example of this. I’m very happy online boutiques becomes so populair.
What’s next/what’s your ultimate dream?
I’m working on a lot of projects. My dream is to be ambassador of a luxury fashion house.
