SPOTLIGHT "Pandora Lynn" CHATS WITH PSB


PSB:What inspired you to pursue plus size modeling?

Pandora Lynn:I think just the appreciation people started showing me when I started to appreciate myself was what led me to pursue modeling. I was approached about it on several occassions before I started working as a model. After my first show, I could not deny that there is something people see in me, and I dont want to hide that. Its confidence, love, faith, and hope that comes from my soul that really makes a difference when living in this world, and people can see that.
 
PSB:how many years of experience do you have modeling?
Pandora Lynn:I have modeled for just about two years now.
PSB:What are your goals as a plus model?
Pandora Lynn:I want to continue to do runway, and hopefully get into commercial, and more print modelling. I would like to be more in the entertainment business as an actress, as well as the music industry. More than anything I just want to keep inspiring women of any size to be happy with who they are; because beauty opens doors, but only virtue can enter. I feel like I represent that in any picture, or show that I do.
PSB:Who /What is your inspiration?
Pandora Lynn:My mother is my inspiration. She taught me the value of a human being. She taught me that no matter if you agree with what they do or who they are, they are still here, and everyone has a heart. So, you love them in the midst of anything. You dont have to put yourself around them, or be hurt by them. But, you never turn someone away who needs love, even if it means just giving a friendly smile. I think that plays a big part in being successful as a Plus Size Model. I run into so many walks of life each and every day. It is about standing strong in who I am, and who I want to be. Whether its in front of the camera, down the runway, or just embracing people at an event; it is something I have to value in myself, because that is the only way anyone else will value me too.
PSB:Who are your favorite Plus size designers/Retailers?
Pandora Lynn:I am a fan of the boutique "The Ultimate Dressing Room" in Houston, Texas and "N-V-US Fashions" in San Antonio, Texas. I like to shop at DOTS, Lane Bryant, Rainbows, and Ashley Stewart. I just started working with "Lady L Designs" as one of her first plus size models for her plus size line she added to her petite line. She is a wonderful designer and I am so excited to travel down that road with her.
PSB:What is your favorite fashion Trend this year? (Optional)
Pandora Lynn:The trend for me right now is short skirts, fitted tops, and a trucker hat (worn backwards or frontwards).
PSB:Favorite quote of all time
Pandora Lynn:"Sometimes this world will turn your life upside down, so you can start living right side up."

PSB:Do you have any upcoming events we should look out for?
Pandora Lynn:My first photoshoot with Lady L Designs is coming up this week, so pictures will be posted on facebook soon. Also, I will be modelling for Clear Hair Products at a hair show in Rosenberg, Texas. I am hoping this summer fills up with more events to come.
