How do you stay true to yourself in Isabel Marant Sale high school? I remember that that can be hard.
You have to separate who you want to be and who others want you to be. You have to prioritize things like dressing for yourself. It’s way easier said than done. Something like cutting your hair, it seems Isabel Marant Shoes Sale like such a menial thing, but I think it signifies…strength.
With Instagram and influences like Petra Collins and Tavi, it’s easier to dress for yourself. Amandla Stenberg inspires me to not care about what others think, and that trickles down to the way I dress and wear?my hair. It’s all about attitude and “screw it, I’m a teenager, I’m going to experiment.”
You have to surround yourself with other people who feel the same way. Then it’s easier. You’re all looking like freaks together and that’s fine. You’re part of a gang. There’s this feminist band called The Menstrual Cramps, they have this hit song called “My Bush Aint Your Business” just find people who want to sing “My Bush Aint Your Business” with you.
What do you wish adults would ask you?
“What do you think?” We’re not asked that enough about important issues. Adults are so fascinated about their own thoughts. I rarely get asked, “What do you think about this? What would you do in this situation?” When they’re generally interested, that’s a good feeling.
We pop out like a little spark into the world. Were rebellious and unsatisfied with the world. Teenagers are really good vessels to articulate emotions because they feel things in such deep ways. My love for Ryan Gosling runs deep. But as we get older, our little fires die down as our priorities shift to money and we begin to settle. And that’s the problem. We need to retain our angst and frustration because when we get into positions of power, we’ll have global warming on the top of our to-do list, underlined three times.
