Wear Your Dreams by Alice Oluyitan
06: Grasie Mercedes - #FASHIONGIRL: How this girl moved to LA to pursue fashion blogging and acting!
This week, Alice has a chat with Grasie Mercedes, the fashion blogger behind Style Me Grasie. Grasie is a triple threat: she is an actress, a TV host, and of course, a style blogger. Her fashion-forward looks have been featured in Glamour, Lucky Magazine, and Who What Wear, and her style even landed her a feature in the Refinery 29 book Style Stalking.
Here’s what we learned from Grasie:
If you’re struggling to keep some balance in your life, whether it’s with work or your social life, remember to do what’s best for you. Don’t take on a job or project if you don’t think it will benefit you or your brand.
Don’t compare yourself to others. The most successful girls are the ones who are true to themselves!
When following your dreams, don’t be afraid to take that bold step! It might be scary, but as Grasie said, nothing is irreversible.
If you really want something, make it work! Grasie moved across the U.S. with very little money in her pocket, but she knew she was doing what she was meant to do and made it work. Now she’s a successful actress, TV host, and blogger!
