Mae Tan
How would you describe yourself?
I just came back from Bhutan and through trying to find myself on that trip, my answer is a little different from how I would have normally answered it. I feel like a pillar of strength when I am with my friends. I want to be there for people. I consider myself a people pleaser. I love making people happy and seeing them reach their full potential. I guess I would say that I am a person who has a lot of love to give!
How would you define your style?
A lot of the time, my style can be quite out there. A big reason why is because I want to try things differently. I like pieces that spark a conversation. I like the fact that clothes can do that. You can have something on you and people go, “Wow! Where is that from?” or “Oh, I love how you styled that.” That unexpected feeling when it comes to styling, when I am dressing up for events or when I am putting an outfit together – that’s what defines my style. I think about how I can leave an impression.
