The perfect day doesn’t exi…..
Recently, I asked you on a poll in my story what kind of content you want to see more of from me. Not surprised, but a lot of you wanted to know what my life was REALLY like. What van-life was like and what a normal day might be like when I’m not traveling… SO here it is!
Come spend my IDEAL day with me in Oregon ✨
Grateful to call this my personal normal and get to live out this wild dream. 🥰

Do you surf?
Creation is a place to explore the unknown, to tap into authenticity, vulnerability, and be in full self expression fully present to the moment without reserve.
As a full time creator I tend to forget to create for myself a lot. And I easily neglect my own passions and things I enjoy creating. @hiicharlee reminded me today to find time for myself even in my busy day to take a few moments to ground myself and get present.
It doesn’t have to be a “whole day” or “hour” just 5 minutes. I tend to want to make sure I’m doing it “right” or making my sure I do it “fully” vs just being okay with if all I got is 5 minutes that all I got and that’s okay.
Thank you for the reminder to stay grounded @hiicharlee

This is your reminder to give yourself permission.
Permission to just let yourself live your best damn life.
whatever that may look like
whatever it is that makes you feel most alive
most present
that fills your soul with wonder
& heart with peace
I hope you give yourself permission to just do the damn thing.
& when you do
I hope you know
you deserve it.
come with me on my trip to LA to walk in @fashionrepublicmag summer show!
Honestly, this is what my life has looked a lot like lately. Planes, eating on the go, quick meet up with friends, dress rehearsals, and fashion shows.
Earlier this year I decided I wanted to walk in a fashion show. I wanted to prove to myself that I could do whatever I set my mind to and runway was always something I wanted to do, but didn’t know if I “could”. I knew that girls my size and height, with my ethnicity, and “look” (with tattoos) don’t always show up and show out on the runway. But I didn’t want that to stop me.
All that to say, it’s been a fun and wild ride since. I hope my journey inspires you to know that you can do whatever you want. There are no limits to what you can achieve ✨

SO YOU WANT TO WALK IN MIAMI SWIM WEEK PART 1✨
#MSW24 was such a dream come true for me. I remembering thinking how I’d love to walk in swim week but didn’t know where to even begin! But I didn’t want that to hold me back and decided this year was the year I was going for it.
From this experience, I got to walk in 3 shows for 8 designers and also signed with multiple new agencies!
I know I don’t know everything but I learned so much from my first year + want to share some tips and tricks I’ve gathered for all my dreamers out there wanting to make their debut or even just return to the runway next year💗
1. Find other or local swim weeks or fashion shows to participate in to make connections, get experience, exposure, and content! If a designer likes you, they may even ask you to walk for them and most likely, you’ll find designers at other swim weeks that also plan on participating in MSW.
2. Follow all the social accounts associated with MSW along with designers they announce. This will also allow related accounts within the industry to show up on your explore page and will be the most helpful tool in gathering info on all the castings!
3. Practice your walk or get a runway coach! Having someone with experience give you tips as you practice is so helpful in building confidence and confidence is KEY.

4. Get a comp card made and PRO TIP: print them BEFORE you head to Miami. (Learned this the hard way.) They’re required for almost all castings and make you look more prepared + professional!
5. Going with a friend who also wants to walk, makes this SO much more fun. You can definitely go at it solo + will meet so many people, but having someone to go to all the castings + events just makes it better especially if it’s your first time!
6. Network and make connections!!! You’ll most likely see the same people at castings over and over again, so might as well be friends! Connect on social and stay connected. You never know who you’re going to meet and what doors and opportunities may come from your new friendships. 2/3 of the shows I walked in were through people I met while in Miami✨
Do you want a part 2?!
