Q: What do you love about fashion? Not love?
A: That it is very versatile and is in a constant change. Fashion is - like music - a way to express yourself, what you feel, what you love, what you hate. It is really strong. It makes you feel comfortable and confident.
What I don't like is that people often think that someone has to dress a certain way and put this art into a box and I don't like that. Also fashion is quite expensive, even if you just shop at high street stores, which is totally fine but it costs money and not everyone can invest in that.

A: I want to feel confident and good about myself firstly, I also want to look effortless but put together. I like giving an edge to every outfit.
Q: Which would you be best at? Worst at? (Stylist, Designer, Photographer, Buyer)
A: I'd say I'd be good as a Stylist or Buyer because I have an eye for what could be trend and I see what suits someone well and what not. I'd be bad at being a photographer probably because I do love taking pictures and I'm quite good at it but not good enough to be a photographer.
Q: What is your dream job?
A: Being a successful blogger, fashion influencer. Someone who works in fashion.
