Fashion icon: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. She’s a minimalist, and I love what she pieces together.
Fashion regrets: Overalls. They somehow seem to always fall off of me in public places.

Not enough of: Forgiveness.
Always up for: Pancakes.
Never up for: Being around ungrateful people.
Early for: A workout.
Late for: Going out. I can never decide what to wear.
