I was in a meeting today and the question was asked to me "What influences your fashion choices?"
Excellent question. My answer is the way I feel. I will dress how I want to be portrayed that day. Am I trying to be some one that I am not? Of course not who does that??? What you have to understand is that people, including you, are not one dimensional. We are not paper dolls. (You all remember those?) There are several parts that make up L.Marie:
There is the business part:
FEELING: I feel like I am the Boss lady and the car service should be waiting outside. Every one she be on there P's and Q's as soon as I walk in the room. There is a smile on my face but a sternness in my eye.
THE LOOK: slacks, blazers, pumps (open toed) Hair pulled back with a natural smokey eye. I might even pull out the glasses that fit my face oh so well. (high-five)
There is the urban rocker chick:
FEELING: real artsy. The world is my canvas and I am ready to paint. The brushes are extensions of my fingers. (when I go on a job most likely you will see this look)
THE LOOK: plaid scarves, converses in all colors, cut up off the shoulder t-shirts, chains, a multi- colored impeccably blended eye and huge earrings. Perfectly Tasseled hair
There is the sexy NYC Diva:
FEELING: I am pretty much what every girl wants to be and what every man secretly wants.
THE LOOK: Nicely fitting dresses. snug fitting pants, fashion scarves, stiletto heels, Over sized bag, Huge shades, Dangling crystal earrings, a dark smokey eye. Sleek flat ironed hair.
There is the model's day off:
FEELING: really laid back, comfortable, but still on top on the game.
THE LOOK: Jeggings, flat boots or ballet flats, over sized graphic shirt, skinny jeans, tights, over sized earrings, heavily lined eye, glossy lips, curly hair
All of these are what makes up the very essence of my looks. I don't buy pre-styled out fits from the store. I shop in pieces. I don't like looking like anyone else. When I walk by I want people to say "that is sweet but I wouldn't wear it". Music to my ears. What are some of your fashion influences. There are no wrong answers.
