Time is of the essence.

Cluse is an essential timepiece in my lifestyle. It gets me through the busiest of days, timing every second to help me reach my goals—big or small. 

When my day is fully booked with meetings and shoots, my Cluse watch helps me keep track of time without other distractions (for example, I would end up going on an Instagram rampage if I was to check the time on my phone). It helps me meet my deadlines, which is crucial when it comes to working with a variety of brands. 

Its simplicity keeps me focused, and completes my look overall. Its sophisticated in its own way, with an elegance that enhances my style. Simply put, my Cluse watch brings out the best in me both internally and externally.

“Never let the fear of falling keep you from reaching the top.”

I’ve always been afraid of heights—the thought of falling and the possibility of hurting myself scared the crap out of me. As I grew older, I learned that it was just all in my head. Although I still get that eerie feeling when I look down from a high angle, the satisfaction of overcoming that fear grew greater and greater. Just like anything I’m scared of or makes me feel uncomfortable, I perceive it as my motivation—a goal—to overcome it and not let it hold me down.

Going on a rooftop of an unfamiliar building and getting a 360 view of LA is something I don’t do everyday. It was breathtaking and I cherished every second. The perfect moment for my white kimono, where it stood out from the buildings and architecture. I polished the look with patent booties along with my favorite bodysuit and distressed jeans to give my laid back LA-look a city vibe to it.
