WHAT IS YOUR BEST BEAUTY TIP?

Get enough sleep! We all look better with lots of it.

HOW DO YOU KEEP A FIT AND HEALTHY BODY?

I’m not rigid about health, diet, and exercise. I do yoga and I have a pretty normal, healthy diet. The key is everything in moderation.

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

It’s pretty simple. I don’t like a lot of ornate or flashy things. I like really nice, quality pieces in basic colors that I can mix and match.

HOW DO YOU MAINTAIN A HEALTHY SENSE OF SELF-ESTEEM AND POSITIVE BODY-IMAGE?

You can’t let negativity about image affect you – there is always going to be someone who is curvier and someone who is skinnier. It can be hard sometimes, but to always be positive we just have to keep reminding ourselves over and over again in our head “I’ am happy the way I am.”

WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR FAVOURITE CITY TO TRAVEL TO AND WHY? WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO TRAVEL TO NEXT?

Besides New York where I live, I would say Paris. Paris is the most beautiful city that I’ve ever been to. Plus, the work there as a model is always special. It is never a photo shoot against a blank white wall.

I’ve been to Asia, Canada, Western Europe, and Africa twice (South Africa and Egypt). I have a friend moving to Africa — Ghana, actually — so maybe somewhere like that.

WHAT MOTIVATES OR INSPIRES YOU TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS?

My parents. They push me to do more intellectual things. Modeling-wise — myself!

IF YOU WERE STRANDED ON A DESERT ISLAND AND COULD ONLY HAVE ON BEAUTY PRODUCT AND ONE FASHION ITEM WITH YOU WHAT WOULD THEY BE AND WHY?

Mascara - I love it and I look 100 times better with it on! For a fashion item, I would bring a slip or t-shirt dress in a soft fabric because that seems to be the most practical and comfortable thing to wear on a desert island!
