Fashion isnt for me. I dont care about fashion and models. I
usually wear comfortable clothes, like jeans, T-shirts and
sports shoes or boots in winter. Most of my friends wear the
same kind of clothes. We dont talk about famous models,
music is our favourite topic of conversation.
I dont use make-up either because Im too young and my skin
is fresh and clean. Madeleine Whooper.
