ZURI

I love twitter! To me it is the perfect way to interact with strangers without being too accessible to their personal lives. A friend that I introduced to twitter told me she thought it was for the stars. I began to tell her no but then I thought about it and simply said yes, because in our own right we are all stars. It was on twitter that I met a beautiful young lady and I had to share her with the world but instead of a Q & A session I asked her to share her life with us. I hope you find her as interesting as I do.

Kisses Bougie.

Bio:

"In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different." ~ Coco Chanel

Tracey, also known as Zuri, which means Beautiful in Swahili, is a lover of fashion, music and life. I am 28 yr old single, young, aspiring model/singer, born and raised in Washington, DC. I am a graduate of St. John's College High School, were I was in the school choir. After graduating I then went on to study music at Virginia Union University, but my love for music and singing came from being in church. That’s where it started. I have always had a love for music every since I was little, but not only have I had a love for music, but I have a love for fashion as well. I have always wanted to model, but didn't think tall or small enough to pursue it.  I always wanted to be a model because fashion is a deep passion of mine. To be a model, it takes more than just a pretty face. I think modeling is an expressive art form and tells a story without words. You can show movement in a still picture, and I think that is incredible to be able to have that skill. I want to be known as the alluring beauty with voluptuous curves. I love my curves because they are a part of me. They help make me the woman that I have grown to love today. This is the body that God gave me, why shouldn't I love them. They make me feel sexy, sassy and confident. As Coco Chanel said “A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.” My all time favorite model would have to be Marilyn Monroe. I loved her confidence and how she was not afraid to be herself. She didn’t care what anyone had to say about her and you just had to love her. My favorite color is pink, I love stepping out in a pair of my highest heels and my hottest outfit, feeling like I am on top of the world. Some of my hobbies include traveling, meeting new people, listening to music, singing, taking pictures, reading, watching sports, dancing and of course shopping. I love motorcycles and plan on owning one really soon. I am also big on family, because my family has always been there for me. We are very close even if we do get on each other’s nerves from time to time, but what family doesn't have its ups and downs. My family is very supportive of me in everything that I do, and for that I am grateful.
