Talk a little about you
Hello! Thank you for remembering me Mafalda, I
loved this proposal and I'm glad you wanna know a little more about me.
In fact this partnership between girls who
love fashion and the art of living seems amazing to me! I hope the readers can
identify with me.
But who am I? I am Adriana Lima, I am a very proud
Portuguese girl from the north (Minho)! I was born on the morning of November 5, 1995, I am
from Caminha, a village somewhere between the mountain and the beach, in
northern Portugal, I must say it is my favorite place, I was and am very happy
in the place that saw me grow.
I am aware that I am an enigma to many people, I'm
a girl who just entered the curious 20s and full of desire to explore my
creativity and give body and soul to many projects, including the Geraldina
Project and Dawnson's choice.
But I am like most of readers, a very real woman, measuring 1.65, weighing 49kg, with a shoe size of 37.5 and wearing
the number 36.
My passions are my family, friends, animals, beach,
photography and short trips. I like to collect shells, looks and sunsets. I admire my origins and all those around me,
I am a person who believes strongly in energy and am lucky to be surrounded by
very pure people that allow me to have the lifestyle I have, of relaxation and
"carpe diem".
When did your passion for fashion start?
My passion for fashion came up when
I was about 13 years old, by then I was a carefree ... I just wanted to wear comfortable outfits so I could
play in the street. When I started entering
adolescence, to have more parties, to enter the real female world where the
competition is unfortunately inevitable, I felt I had to prove who I was, take
a stand. And I have found in fashion a way to
express myself, I used to go to
fairs with my mother, she is the master
of business, she could buy
beautiful pieces with just two coins in her hands. She inspired me and I became like
her, I must confess...Bargaining
in order to be able to lower the prices of things I wanted to buy, so that I
could have more clothes with less, made me a fashion enthusiast. I like
trends, but I never lost my essence, so I mixed clothes from best known brands with
some second hand clothes. I love risk, not afraid to wear
what I like, I dress only for
myself and I'm very pleased when I can look impeccable,
sometimes with three euros sweaters, and pants of ten.
Did you ever think that would reach so
many followers? How was that evolution?
Instagram opens huge
doors for me, it has
been so positive. I have grown a lot and
became more independent. It is a platform that allows to me to know, meet other worlds, get inspiration from other lifes and expand my small projects, which previously only occupied place in my imagination. Lately I've done advertising
for some brands, some known, others less so, often publicit
small projects like mine. People are very generous,
I receive many gifts, I feel so cherished, both virtual
and personal level, it is good to be
recognized and 23k
enjoy my lifestyle
and want to follow me, is surreal. It's not
just numbers, they are real people that just with a
click show interest in knowing who we are and
this somehow gives us encouragement.
What has changed in your life since you've dedicated
it to this work?
For now this is not a job,
it's pure pleasure, not much has changed ... I'm the same dreamy, with
the same passions, I feel just a little bit more ambitious. This whole
process has been healthy,
I hate to be stopped and the Instagram and adherence of people to my pages has
been an encouragement to me. And well ... I must confess... It was there where I discovered my
purpose. I study Language, Literatures
and Cultures in Foreign Language in the University of Porto, never knew very well what my talent was, but knew
I liked dealing with people, studying
other cultures, languages etc.
But nothing yet made
sense to me. Now I know what is the way
forward, I will finish my degree
and can hardly start
studying Business Communication. I've found an assumption and that I love my life,
to go down that route.
Have you had bad moments? If so, could you
tell me one?
Yes, of course I've had bad times... I've always been judged, and unfortunately for my appearance. All my life I had to deal with
the fact that people think that I was too "snob" before knowing me, and from
the moment they start talking to me they completely change their opinion ...I think that people find me a
"nose up" because I am very active on social networks and can be
misinterpreted by taking lots of photos, who's on the other side thinks that I
suffer from a narcissistic complex, but I just like to capture the moments and share them with the world. Everything changed a little when I became public my projects and even than there are people that criticize and try to find a way to sabotage my little and honest work. The project that gives me most
pleasure is the Geraldina. Born in March 2015, raised by
my aunt Helena Gonçalves and me. She left everything to devote
to my grandmother Geraldina who suffered from Alzheimer's and her life was
becoming too monotonous and I thought she needed motivation, joy and color in her
daily live, to feel alive and remember to enjoy her talent in sewing and together we have created a brand (Geraldina_Project), there are
original pieces of crochet, applications, etc... A world apart! They can prove that it is all
done by hand and with great affection. Unfortunately my grandmother
passed away in October, and the project is now done in her memory. It was from there that people
have gained respect for me and gave Adriana an opportunity, saw me without filters, transparent and life goals.
What was the most positive moment resulting
from your work?
The most
positive moment for me was to be able to discover myself, to reinvent me
and challenge me every
day. I am very grateful for the support I have had in my
initiatives and the feedback of those who follow me. I still have a long
path ahead, let
all the negative
back and for now I'm enjoying the journey.
Where can we find and follow
your work?
You can follow me by Instagram: @adrianagolima, and my two projects (geraldina_project and dawnson's choice, clothes selling second-hand).
