Hi! My name's Deja! I'm 19 about to be 20, and I dress in what's comfortable! If I get more confident, I may just try out some neon goth styles! I really like the bright colors in contrast to black! But for now, T-shirts and mom jeans! I like gaming, drawing, Reading, pretty much anything Artsy Fartsy or Dorky! I really like Exclamation marks apparently! What I'd like to do is something in the arsty field, I really want to be an actress honestly. But as far as a day job, I feel it's really important to find a job you really like.

What is up people of the internet?! I'm Melia but all my friends call me Mels (you can too! We're clearly best buds now 😄) I'm 19 years old so I'm one year into this adulthood party. Anyway I'm very much into architecture, space, art, film, food (mostly baking) and obviously fashion. I describe my personal style as grunge princess because I feel like if Kurt Cobain and Iris Apfel are your two biggest style inspirations that's the way to go. In life in general, I'm not exactly sure what I want to do yet it ranges from production to real estate to fashion styling, whatever it is though I'm going to be happy doing it. Oh my major is Media Marketing and I'm starting my junior year on Monday (eek!). With SCSC specifically I want to talk about EVERYTHING. Style inspiration, general life things, music, our relationship to the universe as a whole etc. It's going to be a lot of fun! Big thanks to everyone for reading and following along with our journey! 💗

Hey guys my name is Ololade Ogundowole (its like saying holiday but with an L). I am 18 years old. I go to Moreno Valley college. I love Anthropology, mostly because I believe that it is the light of the world. I love observing people, mostly because I believe that people are not always honest and the only way to get the truth out of them is to observe them and read their body language (I once spent a whole week binge watching a 5 season show called Lie to me, I still think they could have ended it a little better) . I love reading. I can honestly say that reading is my most favorite thing in the world (I would really pick a book over anybody, I know its odd). I don't think that I have a style or any sense of fashion whatsoever. I am African. I like to surround myself with friends who know more than I do and are more experienced than I am, because life is about learning who you are through the people you surround yourself with. I live by an African proverb (Idiom), UBUNTU meaning "I am what I am because of who we all are."

Why hello anyone out there (this includes aliens, because damn it they're real!). My name is Haley Rene and I'm currently 20 years old. My areas of interest are what I refer to as the 3 P's: Psychology, Photography, and Poetry (I promise I don't have a fetish for the letter P). I honestly have no style whatsoever, I'm just a potato, very plain, admiring other people's style from afar. My main interest is in people: mainly listening to people and helping them in anyway I can. It's always a judgment free zone around me, I promise. I hope to spend my life helping people. My personal motto is There's Beauty in the Struggle, and I hope to help people see the beauty in their struggle.

Hello and welcome to SoCal Style Collective! My name is Vanessa, I'm 20 years old, and I started this organization to encourage and help young people pursue their true passions in life. No matter what others may say about the arts, music, and other areas of interest that people see as "just hobbies," I believe these fields and the people that pursue them are extremely valuable to our society in various ways. If you stay long enough, my friends and I will prove that to you and we'll look good doing it too! 😎 I hope to become a graphic designer and fashion designer in the near future, but currently I'm using my skills and fashion know-how to take SCSC further and inspire others to do more with their talents.
