i see all colors. every one of them. i try my best to respect and use all of them too.

for example, there's a color i don't really like...black. and gray too.

they're too dull for me, yet i still try my best to wear those colors, because i see the true meaning of them.

yes, i'm an instagram model. well, i was never really fond of the word "model," it seems too professional for my type of case.

i, byun bom, am just a basic girl who likes to dress up.

i've been doing it for awhile now—posting my outfits on instagram—ever since I graduated from high school. i'm, 23, so that's like what- about 5 years now?

i think i have about 3 million followers, which i always thought was odd. my fashion was not special, at all. whatsoever.

yet, so many celebrities like and comment on my posts. maybe it's because they sense this passion i have for clothes, because i am very passionate about wearing clothes, no doubt. i rarely wear any big branded clothes, and i try my best to style outfits from local thrift stores.

i also have this type of perspective with colors too. the laws of colors and how there's primary, tertiary, or complimentary colors mean everything to me. i can easily pick out which colors suit which depending on the emotions of the person i'm dressing. its a simple mix and match for me. so...maybe that's why people like it?

or maybe because of my personality on social media? how i seem so nonchalant about my job as a "fashionista," yet the clothes on my body somewhat contradict it. it confuses them.

"is she happy?"

"so colorful...but she seems mad?"

no one from social media really knows what i'm like, which is why i've been on instagram for so long. no one knows who i truly am in real life, they only know my clothes and my perspective of colors. it's funny to see them guess what i'm like; it's interesting to read the things they say about me whether it's trash talk or compliments.

so maybe that's it? they like me for my fashion? my personality?

or...the easiest answer out there: i often connect with the most popular korean pop sensations as well as actors. once in awhile, the managers of popular korean artists ask me to dress their idols up when they go out in the public doing small things, which i don't mind at all. it is hard to go through with it sometimes though, a lot of people think i suck at it. but all in all, their opinions don't really matter to me; most people just don't see what i see anyway.

so i guess it might be a mix of everything then. i've been contemplating about this for an hour now. scrolling through my own pictures, judging myself.

i guess it does matter to me about who looks at my pictures. sometimes i ignore them, because sometimes it's too overwhelming. but then later on, i review and look.
