Rock Paper Vintage

Rock Paper Vintage is one of our contest winners! Let’s learn more about Rock Paper Vintage.

Tell us a little bit about yourself.
I'm from Reno NV, but moved to NYC a few years ago to study fashion at F.I.T. I run online vintage store, Rock Paper Vintage and free lance as a fashion stylist.

How did you become interested in fashion?
I've been interested in clothes and fashion my entire life and started sewing and creating my own clothes at an early age.

What are your dreams and aspirations?
I feel like I'm living some of my dreams right now :) - being in New York City, running my own clothing store, and getting the opportunity to work with talented photographers, models and stylists! It's amazing!

How would you describe your style? What’s your favorite look at this moment?
I have an eclectic style, like most girls. I love vintage pieces with personalities of their own and my looks can range from rock ‘n’ roll to delicate and feminine. I suppose it’s probably a very rock goddess style!

Where do you get your fashion inspirations?
From designer runways, to fashion blogs, to people walking in the street! NYC is full of fashion inspiration everywhere from the sidewalk to the subway.

Where do you shop? What are your favorite brands?
I wear primarily vintage pieces, so I shop mainly at thrift stores, flea markets and vintage stores. There are too many fabulous brands to pick a favorite ;)
