their security, charm and the simplicity of only be themselves, they make it look easy.

4. Was there a moment in your life when something “clicked” for you about fashion or dressing or make-up or hair? What? Why did it happen then, do you think?

when i found my "dr martens style boots" it was like ok this is how im going to dress all the time, those boots really change my life and now i barely took them off. They define my style, the time im living now is a lot different from when i was in the university so i feel that with a simple pair of shoes in some way i found myself.

uff its kind a cliche but i have tons of shoes, im obsessed with them there is something especial and magical in them, i feel different with each pair, each one of them tell a story, im really connected with them because im the kind of "moments person" so i remember everything about that moment and my shoes have a protagonist role in those stories.
