This is me circa December 2022. While all the basics are sharing their most played songs or using ring lights to shoot GRWMs and outfit transitions, I’m serving party look realness on a travelator with a green screen backdrop and a custom rig of CCTV cameras. It’s giving ‘I’m obsessed with me, you’re obsessed with me but also, stop staring at me’.

I have just one rule for event dressing; look so good the host regrets inviting me. I always ignore suggested dress codes and my accessories range from tinted EYTYS sunglasses to a wind-thrown plastic bag, I never compromise on dramatic effect. When I do Y2K, it’s in head-to-toe denim, with bedazzled lattice-front OTK boots from GUESS USA, streaked highlights and a flip phone. I go all-out for the pretty girl aesthetic, wearing cartoonish Marco Rambaldi separates under my waist-snatching Versace corset. I was a goddess in a previous life, so the Medusa iconography really speaks to me. She too was misunderstood because of her beauty, and I can tell she was a Gemini.

Sometimes I use tarot to choose my outfits, they guided me to overlay this iced Kara bra top over the cyan blue D&G catsuit. It’s a divine moment that speaks to higher power of the tarot cards because Cyan is the name of my Pomeranian. I get separation anxiety when we’re apart, but she didn’t really vibe with this look so the faux-fur handle on my Ottolinger mini bag is the perfect stand in.

The final accessory is a plus one dressed in monochrome. Preferably all-black, Prada, Rick Owens or Maison Margiela, as mine is. The uninformed will be unsure if they’re your friend or your security. It’s a stunning way to avoid making small talk.
