Style: Work-safe edge

Occupation: Artist, performer, dancer

Wearing: Skirt from Katie’s, shirt from H&M, necklace from Suzy Shier, Aldo shoes

Favorite item: “The bracelet that my boyfriend made for me.”

Styling tip: “Know your body, I would never wear baggy on top of baggy, I can’t do a bohemian look it doesn’t work on my body. You can see a person in a street and want to put it on but if it doesn’t work on your body it won’t look good.”
