Allegra was born in Italy, Milan. Her mother died when she was born, and her father never got married again, but always blamed Allegra for her mother's death.
She never had a good relationship with her father, in fact, he was abusive towards her. And always has a tad old-fashioned way he seeing things. Her family is a wealthy family very affluent in Italy, just as soon recognized in the US.
At the age of 15, she moved to the USA, and her father not only expanded his business but as soon as she arrived there, she was discovered by a scouter that gave her a job as a model.
Despite not being very approved by her father at first, he only allowed her to do whatever she wanted as long as she got a degree when she finished school. Less than 5 months after arriving in the 'new country', as a teenager, she was working as a model and then acting and slowly paved her way to fame.
With a lot of work trips and excellent professionalism, she managed to graduate in architecture. During this time of graduation, she met a guy that she thought would be the love of her life, and they got engaged, and shortly they married. At first, everything was perfect, until it wasn't.
Professionally, Allegra had a little decay, in the middle of her tumultuous marriage in which she was trapped. Her husband wasn't the person she thought he would be, he cheated on her didn't want to get a divorce, and threatened to ruin her career. After a lot of struggle she managed to get a divorce from her husband, what she did not know was that she was pregnant in the middle of the whole divorce process. She only knew this when she had a miscarriage, which was probably caused by the stress of all of it.
She packed her things and moved to a new city, wanting to have a quiet life. Allegra managed to turn around on her work, fortunately, everything now is well established, doing the things that she loves, which is her work, and figuring out what she wants for herself.
MORE TO BE ADD SOON, WHILE I FIGURED OUT MY MUSE...
She was at a coffee shop when she went to grab her request, much for her surprise it was the wrong to drink. She approached the person next to her. ❛ I think you got mine. ❜ @amarawashington / @willathyssen
Allegra was minding her own business when she saw Joseph fixing something on his house. She needed a certain help to repair something in her house too. One day she asked him to come over to her place to repair the sink. Once she heard the doorbell, she went to open for him. ❛ Hey, I hope you don't mind. Come in! ❜ @josephconway
"You've got an eye for this." She muses, a little absentminded as she tries to keep the jewels still as not to lose their places before she can secure any of them. It's a bit of a mess, how she manoeuvres to set her mirror down, that she almost misses the introduction. Freeing up a hand, she's moments from holding it out to shake when she retracts, instead offering her a warm smile. "It's nice to meet you, Allegra! I'm Cassie." Curiously, she tilts her head back to her new friend. "So, what brings you here today? You seem to have an eye for it, do you do these sorts of things often? A crafter, maybe?"
Allegra observed the other with a kind smile. ❛ Thanks. ❜ She watched Cassie trying to maneuver the mirror and the jewels. Part of her wanted to ask if she wanted another help… ❛ If you want help with it, you can count on me. ❜ She politely offers to her new friend. ❛ No, I don't do this kind of thing. I'm an international model and an actress. But I'm here to socialize and meet new people. I don't really know anyone around so… I thought I could give a shot coming here. ❜
Cassie can't understand making the effort to go anywhere just to look at your phone, but she can only assume that's a benefit of having a job she can leave behind when she finishes her shift. She tries not to speculate; at the very least, the other is alert enough to have heard her question and kind enough to respond as well.
"Thank you." She gives her a small smile with her gratitude. At her words, she glances back at her masterpiece and hums. "Oh? That's a great idea, actually, thank you again! Like— Here and here?" Somehow she just about balances the mirror in her hands, hovering jewels as close to the corners as she can.
Part of her was grateful that Cassie interrupted her. It was tiring responding to those emails, but the meeting will happen in the next hour or so. As a public figure, she has a lot of work to do later and trips to plan ( all part of work ). ⏤ A coy smile spread on her delicate features. ❛ Yes. Exactly, like you're showing me now. That way will stay more harmonic. But that's my opinion. ❜ Of course, if the other woman wanted to alter the design it was totally up for her. ❛ I'm Allegra by the way. ❜ If she is about to stay this city in an undetermined time, then should meet a few people.
Aaron can’t remember the last time he saw Allegra. No doubt in some chic New York City cafe, gossiping over coffees or tea. It probably when he was on Broadway, living a life that was entirely different to where he was now. And that was okay. He had made peace with the changes, knowing he had achieved his dreams and more and this was something new… an opportunity to chase alternative goals. “It’s a nice place, I gotta say. Different than home… but soft. Sweet. Good people, you know? He grinned, grabbing his coffee to take a sip. It had gone a bit tepid, but he didn’t mind. “I’m a teacher now, actually. Left acting behind… for a few reasons.” His breakup had destroyed him and it just took him out. Maybe one day he’d find his way back to it. “Teaching at the university. Living downtown. It’s a new life, but a good one. I can’t really complain.”
Allegra was glad to see a friendly face after so many years. Probably in New York, where everything starts and before her life went upside down, her personal life. Her professional life kept growing, fortunately. ❛ I see… ❜ Unlike him, Allie didn't know exactly what it was like to have 'love' and be surrounded by good people. She was lucky to meet a few people… But she isn't entirely sure what is home for her. ❛ I'm sorry about that. ❜ She refers to leaving the act behind. She ended up here because she had a tumultuous breakup with her fiancé. ❛ Lucky you! Well, I don't know what I want, except get away from a few people from NYC. And work. Dating is so complicated. ❜ Especially being a public figure where everyone knows her. The thing about that city, it is not everyone knows exactly who is she, or so she would like to think so. It is good to be incognito. @aaronjacoblevy
allegra: maybe we can find some resume of what we miss on the first movie on youtube...
allegra: and watch the second second, so my question is yay or nay ?
"your social media? what, you famous or something?" ethan asks with a brow raised. he doesn't recognize the woman from anywhere, but then again, his knowledge of celebrities is blissfully limited to about five or six people. "nope. you caught me on a good day." his voice is deadpan, as if her question barely fazes him. it's community service; he'd be stupid to do anything above the bare minimum.
She smirks at his question, it is rare to meet somebody who has no idea who she is. ❛ Yes. I'm a famous actress and model. I worked in one of these blockbuster movies. ❜ In reality, Allegra does not like to talk about her career that much… There is this part of her that worries if she seems 'arrogant'. The Italian blonde is a very down-to-earth kind of person, and humble. ⏤ ❛ How are you on your bad day then? ❜ It may seem like she purposely tries to irritate him, but Allegra is merely curious. Ethan is different from the kind of people she deals with daily.
He hadn't meant to turn heads, really. He just sometimes became suddenly unaware of himself, so trapped in his own head. And he had a beautiful voice, sure, but it's not like he was trying to call attention to himself. It's just when his mind went sort of fuzzy, and the music took over.. well, he just had to sing. But then he spotted an old friend, one he hadn't seen for a minute. "Allegra! What are you doing here? You live here? In Starlight Oaks?" He smiled, placing his journal down and scrambling out of his seat to get up and give her a hug. "I moved in 9 months ago, but... most of my life is centered around the university, now."
It's always pleasant to see a familiar face, especially in a town where she does not know what she is going to do, nor how long she wants to stay. She hugged him back warmly before adjusting her posture and giggling a little. ⏤ ❛ Yes, I do. I moved here a month ago, still, I'm not sure how long I will stay, but this is it. ❜ She admitted, sighing deeply flipping her silky, platinum blonde hair with the back of her hand. ❛ How about you? What are you doing? Do you live here? ❜
"shots first, then we sign up," she confirms with a nod, relaying their order to the bartender. "i need a little more liquid courage before going up there." with a laugh, they hand the second shot to allegra, raising it in a cheers. "salud! again!"
IF THERE WAS something it was clear, is that Allegra wouldn't arrive sober at home that night. At the least, she is having fun and their excitement was contagious, she clinked her shot with the other before chugging it down at an ease. ❛ Salud again! So, what are your music for the night huh? ❜

winnie had never sewn a day in their lives, but they were hopig that the strength in their fine motor skills would make this easy. it was only proving to be half-true, as they struggled to get the ears right. they looked over at the person next to them, hoping they might be of some assistance. "how, uh... how is yours coming along ?"
ALLEGRA tried a few things to do, and her little bunnies seemed 'ok', when they approached and talked to her, she showed them what she managed to do. ⏤ ❛ I supposed I could do better, but I'm not sure how to do it. What's wrong yours? ❜
