As A Former Undocumented Immigrant With College Degrees, I Now Have The Opportunity To Finally Pursue The Life I Always Wanted

'After living in “the shadows” for 25 years as a former undocumented immigrant with college degrees, I now have the opportunity to finally pursue the life I always wanted.
What does this have to do with my choice in style? Well, for many years, I’ve had dreams and aspirations that seemed to go nowhere, among them the opportunity to be able to dress up for the job I wanted. I made the huge leap of faith a few weeks ago by going from relaxed Southern California to the tall and fast moving New York City metropolis. My goal is to finally pursue a career that I always wanted. For this, I have to dress up how I always wanted to dress up.
Every time I put on a suit, it is not just clothes that I wear, it is the hearts and souls of all those friends and family who have sacrificed and supported me along this adversity paved road that I travel. The suit I wear at an interview and hopefully a new career will not just show my “choice in style,” but it will be a personal reminder that these loved ones will be with me in every success to come. They have given me patience, confidence and most importantly, the suit represents hope. A reminder that this new chapter would not have been possible without wonderful support. They are the real threads and fabric of the suit that are making this dream come true. I proudly wear and carry their memories, but most important as a reminder of not forgetting where I come from.'

When I Started Wearing Casual Clothes I Had No Idea What Fashion Could Be

'I like new design & fashion. Like wearing a suit & tie to look classy or casual with a pair of jeans and sweater with a leather jacket. I'm excited that during my studies I’m focusing on a clothing line for the upcoming years
Where I started from wearing casual clothes and no idea what fashion could be, I changed to a casual street wear mix. But when you love fashion and you want to get noticed in a public, you have to dress outstanding. It doesn't have to be outstanding for others, just outstanding for yourself. That’s what my fashion and style is about.
Describe yourself by wearing your own style, don’t follow the people, be a leader. Every detail can make a difference. It’s not only about the suit & tie, but about the colour combination and the accessories. It’s not about the value of the clothes, but it’s about the combination and passion for the clothes/fashion/design. Search to find the best methods to describe your own fashion, by adding the details what makes the finishing touch.
I first got introduced to street wear fashion. Wearing the normal slim-fit jeans with a slim fit shirt and colourful sneakers. I loved this casual style in normal life. During parties and conventions, you can not show up like this. I loved the style of David Beckham, how he could be street wear casual one day and classy in a suit & tie the other day. His fashion inspired me to wear fashionable slim fit suit & tie during parties and conventions, where I used to wear only a simple shirt and a chino. Nowadays I combine the colourful chino with a slim fit t-shirt. With all my clothes I like to add it with extra’s like north skull bracelets and an Armani watch.'
