Fashionista of the Year!

27 August 2011 by Carolina Engman

CHIC. Remember back in may when I was nominated for ‘Fashionista of the Year’ in the Swedish magazine CHIC’s annual award? Well, on Wednesday evening the award ceremony took place, and I won!!!

Now, remember that shoot I did where they gave me the most insane disco hair? It was for the latest issue of Chic where I’m on the cover together with swedish popstar September! Sooo surreal to see myself on a cover, something I truly never thought would happen (especially not with a gigantic afro) but it only proves that anything is possible! Huge thanks to everyone who voted, I truly have the most amazing readers and your support means the world to me!!
