SCROLL

How would you describe your Instagram aesthetic?

My Instagram looks just like me: unorganized but carefree and positive. I want to bring a smile to people who watch my feed, as well as aesthetic visuals.

How did you develop your Instagram aesthetic?

I often brainstorm about how I could bring the best in a picture, from the composition of it, the main point I want to highlight and the message I want to give. It actually takes more time to plan the picture than taking it.

What are some of your tips and tricks for creating beautiful Instagram content?

Light is a big challenge when it comes to creating beautiful IG content. Morning light and Golden hour are the best for photoshooting and harsh noon light is the hardest to shoot with. I also recommend you to mind your environment: try to interact with it. And lastly: have fun photoshooting! Genuine passion really shine through a picture.

How would you describe your personal style?

My personal style is very colorful, cute with a hint of sexiness to it. My latest addiction are summer assorted two-piece sets. Always with a beret hat because I like to pay tribute to my beautiful city Paris.

How did you develop your personal style?

My clothes were heavily restricted during middle and high school, but I wanted to look different. I always thought neutrals don’t reflect my personality as much, and that wearing bright clothes cheered people up. My personal style was also influenced by both Parisian style and Korean Style so it makes a pretty cute mix.

What is one thing you think every girl should have in their wardrobe?

Definitely that pair of blue jeans that fits you perfectly. There’re a thousand ways to style denim so you can never go wrong with it.

Who is your favorite fashion icon?

Brigitte Bardot is a pretty solid choice as a fashion icon, but lately Blackpink Jennie is my latest crush.

Who is your favorite designer?

Giambattista Valli for all his princess dresses of every girl’s dream. They look so bright and airy like a fairytale.

If you could raid anyone’s closet who would it be and why?

I would definitely raid Heart Evangelista’s closet! For the variety, the avant-garde and colorful pieces, but mostly for the luxury bags hahaha.

What is a must have fashion accessory?

The must have fashion accessory would be a smile ☺
