Clothing acts as a tool to embody one's best self and communicate a personal story, rather than being a frivolous luxury.

“The clothes are the tools and how you put them together and the texture and the color and the silhouette and the proportion and ultimately how each piece makes you feel is the story. What you wear is the story. Fashion is like the icing on the cake.”

Having too many clothing choices causes stress and paradoxically leads to wearing the same few items every day.

“ironically what would end up happening is I would just wear the same thing every day because I could not pick out an outfit because there were too many choices”
