Here it is! Our second monthly feature! We picked this girl not only because of her style, but because of how sweet and caring she is. We both grew up with her because she attended the same school district as us, but only recently did we get the chance to really hang out and talk to her. Grace is super crafty and actually crocheted her shirt as well as her high waisted shorts. She's also really cute with a great sense of humor (not to mention she's athletic AND can sing). We are so blessed that Grace could support us on our blog and we'll support her in anything that she does in the future. Find out more about her in the Q & A below.
Grace Horn
Q: Who do you look up to?
A: I look up to my cousin Rebecca who is currently living in Florida (but had lived in Iowa). Growing up, I was always looking up to her: her clothes, athletic ability, just everything in general. She was Miss Iowa and now she is an elementary school teacher. She even continues to help her mom out on the farm she grew up on.
Q: Who influenced your style?
A: I don't think any one person influenced my style. If I see someone with an outfit I like, I'll make my own version of it. Sometimes I see things on pinterest too. What I wear also depends on the setting...like a for a family picnic I might wear khakis and stripes. I have a very versatile style. I could be a rocker chick one day and a boho girl the next.
Q: What do you do for work?
A: I work at a summer camp with 5 year olds. I'll also be a fitness instructor at Penn State University.
Q: What are your hobbies?
A: I love making cards, crocheting, and working out. Health and wellness is definitely a priority of mine.
Q: What are your goals?
A: Honestly, I really want to be a singer. But for now my goal is to graduate from Penn State, become an elementary school teacher, and also be a really awesome fitness instructor that can change peoples' mindsets about their health.
Q: What's your nationality?
A: My dad is Italian and my mom is Dutch. Both of my parents are German too.
Q: Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
A: In 10 years I'd like to be a local elementary teacher who is married with two kids (hopefully 2 boys).
Q: Why do you dress the way that you do?
A: I dress the way that I do because my style has matured. I also dress the way I do depending on how I feel that day. A lot of things have influenced and matured my style including my amazing boyfriend Jesse. I go through stages though, for sure.
Q: Why do you get up in the morning? What drives you?
A: I have extreme anxiety about being late so I get up pretty early. Plus the morning is my favorite part of the day because of breakfast. Specifically banana bread oatmeal...
Q: If someone gave you the power to save one species on Earth, what would it be and why?
A: So this little boy at camp caught a praying mantis in a cup for the counselors, but they made him set it free. I learned that praying mantises are actually very helpful and beneficial. They eat all of the bad insects in your home and garden, so I'd save that species.
