Journey of Fashion Designer, Clarissa

Rare Talk digs deep with Clarissa. 






How did you spend your freshman year in high school?  And how did you spend your sweet 16?

  1. I remember when I started high school. I was really afraid. I heard how the juniors and seniors were mean to freshman. I'd also heard about them throwing pennies. My have times changed! I guess guns have replaced pennies! I'm glad I started when I did!

  2. Hi There! Ys, I'd heard about the pennies too. But, that experience was far from my thoughts as they were consumed with "What can I wear today that can cover my big, pregnant belly?" or "What do my peers (and their parents) and my family really think of me now?"

    I had only a few pairs of actual maternity clothes, so I became creative in my thinking in wearing regular pants by using strings and fabric to add more elasticity and width to the waistline. I was often embarrassed by my situation and my self-esteem was shot. I often masked my emotions to enhance my insecurities. It was exhausting! While I got along well with people and never had pennies thrown at me, this thing called "LIFE" was. I am grateful and wiser nonetheless!

  3. One of the most beautiful things in life is being able to GO through things and being able to GROW through things!
