‘My style is inspired by how I was raised. My mother raised four children (3 girls, 1 boy) alone and I’m the oldest. She taught me that being well dressed is a form of good manners and coming from the south that is important.

She also taught me that as a woman I can embrace my homosexuality, wisdom, nerdy traits and love for random things through what I wear; so that instead of people judging me when they see me on the subway or bus or walk into my 7am college class they embrace and smile because I am a story expressed through every piece of clothing and fabric that touches my chocolate skin.’
