"Having a dress code for the majority of my life, I felt like my fashion sense was being bullied. Not being able to express who I was through what I wear, and how I wore my clothes truly effected me. I felt like I could not be me. To me, there was nothing worse than not being able to be creative and explore the many trends that the fashion industry brings the world everyday. Now that a dress code does not exist in my life, feel nothing but free to truly display who I am, and how the fashion industry has effected the person that I am beyond what I wear. I now, live and breathe the color black. There’s no other color that makes me feel so good, and so Me. Like Coco Chanel said, ‘The best color in the world, is the one that looks good, on you!’ "
