THE THREE WORDS TO DESCRIBE MY SENSE OF STYLE ARE: EFFORTLESS, POL ISHED AND MINIMALISTIC.
MY ULTIMATE STYLE ICONS ARE: TIMOTHÉE CHALAMET AND MANU RIOS.
THIS FALL, THE LOOK I WILL BE WEARING MOST IS: A BLEND OF CASUAL CHIC AND SOPHISTICATED EDGE.
MY SIGNATURE DAY LOOK IS: RELAXED YET STYLISH, COMBINING OVERSIZE PANTS WITH CROPPED SHIRTS FOR A MODERN, EFFORTLESS VIBE.
MY SIGNATURE EVENING LOOK IS: MINIMAL BUT EDGY, DRESSY TROUSERS WITH CROPPED BLAZERS AND CRUNCHY SHOES.
MY SIGNATURE SCENT IS: SAND, A VERSATILE, WOODY AROMATIC FRAGRANCE WITH NOTES OF CITRUS AND SANDALWOOD.
NO OUTFIT IS COMPLETE WITHOUT: A WELL-CHOSEN ACCESSORY. WHETHER IT’S A STATEMENT WATCH, A STYLISH NECKLACE, OR A CLASSIC PAIR OF SUNGLASSES, THE RIGHT ACCESSORY CAN ELEVATE YOUR LOOK AND MAKE IT FEEL MORE POLISHED.
IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME, I WOULD TELL MY YOUNGER SELF: TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS AND TAKE RISKS WHEN IT FEELS RIGHT. IT’S OKAY TO MAKE MISTAKES, AS THEY ARE PART OF THE JOURNEY.
THE TITLE OF MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY WOULD BE: EFFORTLESS JOURNEYS: NAVIGATING STYLE AND LIFE.
