Visionaries, episode 12: Influential Fashion with Andy Torres, founder of StyleScrapbook
How far can your dreams take you?
Truth be told, dreaming without the act of doing doesn't work as one would expect. However, mixing the two can definitely make the difference between achieving your dreams and being left on the bench.
Our guest today, Andy Torres is what people would call a go-getter. The precise embodiment of perseverance and resilience.
Andy is the founder of StyleScrapbook - a curated fashion blog focused on presenting fashion in a relatable, inspiring, and affordable way.
Her resume includes working as a host for Cosmopolitan TV and E! Entertainment Television series “ELLE Mexico Diseña”. She has also collaborated with several brands including Dior, Louis Vuitton, Burberry, Levi’s, Nike, Reebok, to name a few.
But 14 years ago the landscape was completely different. Andy started her blog out of finding herself unemployed, with big aspirations yet with very few people that believed in her potential.
Despite the roadblocks, she managed to keep her lively spirit alive and become one of the most successful fashion bloggers worldwide.
“I am so much more than just a content creation machine”. - Andy Torres
