Meet the Rookie: Thaina D
Thaina D, the lanky, afro-rocking Brazilian, grew up wanting to be just like her sister and maybe one day become a stylist. Although we have yet to have the privilege of meeting her sister, if they’re anything alike she is undoubtedly lovely. Similarly, Thaina’s style speaks for itself and her success as a model has sent her on a new path that she’s determined to make the most of. Because our Portuguese is a little rusty (read: non-existent) and Thaina’s still mastering English, there was bit of a language barrier. Thankfully, some nifty modern technology (Google translate), helped us through some questions.
