1. How old are you, and what do you do (work, school, etc.)?
I'm 16 and I'm a student :)
2. Where are you from, and how does that affect your style?
I was born in South Africa and lived there until I was 12; now I live in Melbourne, Australia. Melbourne fashion is particularly vintage and that has influenced me; I love all things old and off-beat!
3. Do you have a favorite item? One that you own and one that you would love to have?
One that I own: A gorgeous statement necklace from Peeptoe that is white and silver and topaz
One that I would like to own: Any and all 1920s style dresses!
4. Is there a look/trend that you really DO NOT like?
Australia went through a phase where they'd pair long black leggings with white socks -.-
5. What is your favorite designer or store?
Oh hard one... I love Forever New, Top Shop & Zara particularly!
6. Favorite red carpet look ever, like from the Oscars or the Met Gala for example?
I can't really think of a FAVOURITE off the top of my head, but I love all things Diane Kruger and I do really love this dress:

I really love the Hermes Birkin and the Reed Krakoff Atlantique!

Books: Sherlock Holmes, The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency, Thomas Harris' Hannibal Lecter series
Movies: The Artist and Easy Virtue are my ALL TIME FAVOURITES <3
9. What do you like to do in your free time from work/school (besides Polyvore, of course)?
I write, read, design and scour the internet :)
10. Where would you like to travel, and where is your favorite place that you’ve been?
I would LOVE to visit Eastern Europe and Russia; and also Argentina and Chile!
My favourite destination so far would have to be the Drakensburg mountains in South Africa; visually stunning and perfect for hiking!

Mulberry Bag

Combat boots look as great with a flare skirt as they do with black jeans. This is how I'd style the grungy footwear.
