Real Life Style Inspiration: Aileen Estrada

This week, I’d like to introduce you to the Fabulous Aileen Estrada. She has been a HUGE style inspiration of mine and I’m so excited to share her amazingness with you all! Aileen was born in Hollywood, Florida but now lives in Montreal, Canada, studying Creative Arts in college. The fashion style Aileen’s most comfortable in is grunge or colorful vintage pieces from the 80s and 90s. She is awed by the fashions back then – everyone just expressed themselves so much more through their physical appearance. She loves the trends and fads they had – everything was better, even (especially) the music. Occasionally she’ll dress really girly, frilly things and dresses, the works – but only at home, alone. When Aileen goes out, she’ll throw on a band tee and her favorite shoes (creepers)…She enjoys shopping at thrift stores best because she can find something new every time she goes. There really isn’t anything better. She also likes ogling at American Apparel as she walks by. Aileen is a lover of 80s and 90s movies and TV shows, the sound old records make, road trips, science fiction and school. When she “grows up,” she’d like to become a rockstar ideally. Other than that she’d really just love to travel and write a book. Check out the incredibly inspiring photo gallery filled with some of my favorite photos of Aileen! I like to think of style as a modern day LOLITA (I mean, it’s one of her favorite films…and she draws a lot of inspiration from it)!
