gisele: the person and the character

From Utopia's coasts to Boston's city, Gisele gives us a little insight into her life this month in Vogue. I was so intrigued by this interview because it shows the reality of the celebrity life and one of the coping mechanisms that I assume is common even for the ordinary person. I thought I would share a little tid bit: 

"People were asking, 'How does it feel to be the model of the moment?' It was hard for me to answer as myself. I barely spoke English. I thought, I have to give my best because they trust me with that. I invented this other person, and she could do everything. She wasn't afraid; she was able to be ballsy and risky and sexy or androgynous. She was bold. I had to believe in myself as this person that was strong, up-front, invincible, and positive, who knew what she was doing, even though I really didn't. I've worked for fourteen years, but I don't think anybody in business really knows me, because there is that other person."

encouragement: the willingness to be known.

destination known.

A wise person once told me that walking with purpose creates energy and influences others. I believe it, and I want to live in such a way.

I adore everything about this essemble…everything. I never knew a chambray shirt could inspire me as much as it is. Work this look for spring.

Navy and black, stovepipe trousers, doubled breasted velvet, and BLONDE. Walk this way.

Khaki gives us a little break from denim for spring. We may need it every now and then since head to toe denim is being thrown into the mix. Bold neutrals go a long way. Take advantage.

Thank you Ralph. Motorcycle seams on khaki: genius. I'm glad it's not rude to stare at pictures.

I'm ready to be amidst the streets of speeding gold again.
