NAME Audrey "Gucci" Wayne WHAT DO YOU DO? I'm a Design & Management Student at Parsons. But I'd say I spend most of my time cleaning my apartment, smoking cigarettes, and spacing out. WHAT SHIRT DID YOU CHOOSE AND WHY? Tha Teflon Don...cuz I think I'm Big Meech WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY READING/ WATCHING/ LISTENING TO? Reading: Ethical Theory and Business....for school, obvy. Watching: Portlandia, 30 Rock, Parks & Rec, Curb Your Enthusiasm re-runs, MSNBC's Lockup, and a lot of standup on Netflix instant Listening: The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, A$AP Rocky, 2 Chainz (aka Tity Boi), Lil Wayne (I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU), Aaliyah, and Fiona Apple WHAT WAS THE LAST GREAT MEAL YOU ATE? Crispy Fish and Maiz y Poblano tacos with a Michelada from Tacombi....mmmmmm! WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT YOU TREASURE? My friends, family, and boyfriend. But a material thing? My metal-cast bird skull necklace.Or my bed. Or this lucky charm thing my cousin made me for my 21st birthday. Ugh. I don't know. This is a hard question. Onto the next one... WHAT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACE YOU HAVE EVER BEEN TO? A Buddhist Temple in Nara, Japan with my sister Charlotte. The temple is set in a mountainside and took several hours to get to from the city. Both the temple and the nature surrounding it are unbelievably beautiful. We woke up at 6 on a rainy morning to pray with the monks and then the two of us took a walk through the temple's cemetery. It was unreal. WHAT DO YOU LIKE/DISLIKE? Like: Approximately 40% of the world. A short list includes: Q-tips, tattoos & piercings, incense (Nag Champa...oh, yes...), gin, pugs, perfume, liquid eyeliner, and cigarettes Dislike: The remaining 60% of the world. Several things included in this 60%: Dubstep (and the "Skrillex" haircut girls have been doing), people who don't like pugs, plastic bags, people who don't reduce, reuse, and/or recycle, wilted lettuce, the return of 90's fashion trends, and long emails WHOSE SENSE OF STYLE DO YOU ADMIRE? Erin Wasson, Rihanna, and Christine Lai (blogger and designer of UNIF clothing label) to name a few. I feel like my style is different everyday, so my style icons change daily as well. Why do you ask such hard questions?!? WHO WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE ON THE NEXT DEERDANA SHIRT? Larry David, Steve Buscemi, or Bill Hader (possibly as Stefon..!)
