&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;About Me&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Sixteen and Sydney. I&#39;m an ABC (Australian born Chinese) student whose life is a series of homework and assignments, exams and school blazers but that&#39;s ok because I&#39;m about 6 months away from graduation and liberation! I use my spare time (and study time) to watch TV shows, to Facebook and to sew. You could name just about every popular TV show on air right now and I probably follow it!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I guess to describe myself, I&#39;m a realist dreamer. I&#39;m passionate and dedicated towards what I really want - a life in the exclusive world of fashion.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I have the mentality of a realist - absolutely crazy about lists, plans and organisation! I go after what I want in a sensible way - I follow procedures and make plans to achieve goals.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Though it&#39;s conflicting because I have the heart of a dreamer. I love to experiment, create, redefine and push the boundaries in design. In design I strive with chaos and&amp;nbsp;spontaneity but in life I crave structure - I guess that&#39;s good for the business side though!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I have a vision of my own label in the hopefully not too distant future but in the mean time I focus on surviving the last few months of school, partying like a m****rf****r, travelling and on my path to design school!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;tr-caption&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;I&#39;m coming for you baby :&#39;)&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;It&#39;s my dream to go to Central Saint Martins in London for fashion design and so I&#39;m going to document my process, troubles and discoveries along the way. I&#39;ll talk portfolio development, my own Year 12 Textiles Major Work, my creations, visions and desires. I&#39;ll post all kinds of inspiration along with general musings on life, school, fashion and travel.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I&#39;ve been to about 13 countries across Asia-Pacific and Europe + US. Hong Kong isn&#39;t just a fashion capital, it&#39;s also my absolute baby!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;WARNING:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I don&#39;t follow specific designers or fashion &#39;genres&#39;. I&#39;m not a hipster or a mainstreamer, I don&#39;t value monochromes over patterns or shoes over bags. I love what I love and it&#39;s not always at the forefront of cutting edge fashion! I don&#39;t have a &lt;i&gt;distinct&lt;/i&gt; style but I also promise it&#39;s not the typical teenage &#39;Show Pony&#39; or &#39;Princess Polly&#39; outfits. (I&#39;m actually family friends with the owner of Show Pony so no offence intended there!) However I do love blazers and button up shirts but also in moderation. You&#39;ll find that my inspiration and my fashion wants are sourced from a variety of people, styles and stores so I&#39;m sure you won&#39;t be bored.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;There&#39;s not much else I can tell you about myself so I guess you&#39;ll just have to follow my blog to learn more about me as I post!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Kisses for the misses,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
