1.) What's your holy grail beauty product?
Black liquid eyeliner, red lipstick and black nail polish
2.) How would you describe your style?
I would describe my style as rockabilly with a little NYC chic street wear mixed in
3.) What are some style rules you do/don't follow?
I feel like I break more rules than I follow. I have no problem wearing a nice pair leggings as pants and I like to mix and match prints a lot as well
9) What problematic issues do you face within fashion/beauty as a WOC?
I sometimes feel people find it hard to accept a rockabilly girl who is also a women of color. The racial climate during the time in which I draw most of my stylistic influence from was tumultuous at best. Rockabilly was all about early rock'n'roll and a sort of hillbilly look. It is especially difficult being a singer who draws influence from artists of color during that same time. It is widely accepted that a lot of famous faces of the rockabilly culture recreated music from artist of color and brought it to mainstream. So to adopt so much of the rockabilly style and to create music unlike the culture, I think is a juxtaposing people find hard to wrap their heads around, but one I love and feel is very interesting.
