INDIVIDUALISTIC STYLE: Molly McGinn
Each week I feature someone who stands tall and is always distinct from the rest.
ARE.
a breath of fresh air in a city that was made of commonalities and stereotypes
"In my head" being the key phrase.
I had just moved to Greensboro, NC to study Interior Architecture

When planning for the MY FASHIONABLE FRIEND clothing swap,
I realized this would be a great excuse to get her down here.
I crossed my fingers and it worked!
She sounded amazing, authentic, beautiful, care-free ...just as I had remembered.

personal style.

What experiences have most shaped who you are?
"The first would be learning to play guitar from my Dad. The second would be a heartbreak, 9 years ago. It changed everything. And the third would be today; I try to let today teach me what I need to be the person I'm supposed to become. It doesn't always work that way, but I try."
