'My style has been loved by some, and criticized heavily by others. While my family has been some of my biggest critics, they (try to) allow me to express myself in a way that I find fit. I have a sort of....raggemuffin, thrown together style, comprised of a lot of pieces that I find on the sale rack, thrift store, or my fathers bins in the basement.

I really am attracted to loud, patterned prints and textiles, and really I don't go a day without a form of boot on my feet. Be it Chelsea, combat, or something more subtle, usually combat. The picture is a Polaroid my friend took of me as I modeled for her photography portfolio. I actually have on a flannel with only the top button fastened, and that's a kind of quirk of mine, fastening the top button only. And it's another thing that's been heavily criticized.'
