SCROLL

Describe your personal style.

This is a hard one, because I have different aesthetics depending on my mood. Some days I can dress minimalist, others full of colour or I can be edgy. But I’d say my personal style is mainly chic, I’m not afraid to wear colours and statement pieces.

Do you use any elements from your Peruvian heritage in your style?

I don’t really include any elements of my Peruvian heritage in my style. Maybe because I moved to the United States when I was 16 and I fully developed my styled in this country. But that’s something I’d love to look into.

What are 5 pieces you think every girl should have in her closet?

A black blazer , an oversized white button down , light wash & high-rise mom jeans , black heeled booties and a camel coat.

Describe an outfit that makes you feel the most confident.

Light wash high-rise mom jeans, paired with a slim black turtleneck, high-heeled black booties, a beret, black sunglasses, lots of gold jewellery and a plaid beige & black coat. Below is a picture. I felt so confident wearing this outfit and saw heads turn as I walked down the streets of Manhattan.

Burger or Salad?

I’m a vegetarian, so I’d have to say salad or a bomb veggie burger!

What fashion brands do you turn to for your personal style?

I usually turn to ASOS, River Island, ZARA, Princess Polly, Showpo, SHEIN, Nasty Gal and Boohoo. For inspiration I turn to Sezane, Celine, Chanel, STAUD and Versace. I’ll be able to shop there one day.

What’s one fashion accessory you think every girl should own and why?

Gold jewellery! Whether it is a necklace, earrings, minimalist or statement jewellery! It makes an outfit look more put together and chic.

If you could collaborate with any skincare brand, which brand would it be and what product would you make?

I would collaborate Lancôme and would create an anti-aging skincare line for young adults. It would prevent aging signs like wrinkles and fine-lines while also being gentle on the skin. I’m all about prevention and I’m obsessed with anti-aging! Most young people don’t use any anti-aging products because they think they don’t need them until wrinkles start to appear. While I want to get preventive Botox fillers in a couple years to delay the process of aging!

What are 3 skincare rules you always abide by?

Always wear SPF, never sleep with makeup on and follow your skincare routine religiously.

What are 3 fun facts you can share with our readers about Peru?

I have so many fun facts about Peru! Peru has actually the highest sand dune in the world. There are over 3,000 different varieties of potatoes grown in Peru. And it has won “Best Culinary Destination in the World” Title for the 8th consecutive year in 2019.
