How would you describe your style?
I would describe my style as a comfortable mix between trendy pieces and classic staples. My go-to is dark wash skinny jeans and I usually pair them with oversized sweaters and trendy off-the shoulder tops. Usually the focal point of my outfit is my shoes I love thigh-high boots and strappy flats.
What accessory would you never leave the house without?
My two necklaces I never take them off. One is a gold chain with a star and moon charm. While the other is a dainty silver plate that has my name engraved onto it.
What is your favorite item of clothing that you have ever owned?
That's a difficult question but I would have to say my high school graduation dress. At my high school all graduates were required to wear white dresses. It's my favorite dress just because of the significance of that day. The process of picking it out with my sister and mom were also just special moments.
What are some fashion trends that you really like or don't like?
I would say that my picture is a pretty accurate representation of trends that I really like - I love off the shoulder top and love embroidery. I am also really curious to wear more mesh this summer, it’s a cute trend. A trend I don’t like is satin. I think it's just an unflattering and awkward material for me to wear although some people look amazing in it.
Do you think being an identical twin has influenced your style choices?
I think Isabella and I have very similar styles and we tend to like similar silhouettes and colors. Being a twin is great in terms of choices and variety because we are able to share clothes which is really nice. However when we go out we really try to dress differently from each other. I think as twins we put a lot of effort into trying not to have similar outfits.
