Yonela

Nothing like the pride of wearing dad's bag; Yonela (Yum-Yum) is a vision in velvet black and chocolate brown. Her copper and black braided hair completes her "ethno-boho" look: "I wouldn't call my look strictly boho...I'm not scruffy!"


"I have no icons. I dress to fit my style. But my best philosophy has to be 'wear it when it's out.' I'm taking a BSc in Earth Sciences and want to go into diamond mining one day...or maybe even oil refining."



"I found my dad's bag in the garage, all covered in this white stuff. Since no one else was using it, I cleaned it up and brought it to varsity. Now I use it every day." Her dad's postman bag is a diamond in the rough—the first of many special finds, we're positive.
