MAKAYLA HARMON: "MY TIMELESS PIECE IS THIS DRESS THAT I WILL 'KNOCK ON WOOD' WEAR FOREVER, IT’S A DRESS MADE BY ALEXANDER WANG, AND TO ME IT’S THE VERY DEFINITION OF TIMELESS."
27th May 2014
Who is Makayla 'Mak' Harmon?
Well, I’m from Dallas, born and raised. I am crazy and very outspoken about things that bother me. I am at first a little quiet, I try to feel the room figure out what is and isn’t appropriate to say and do. But after a full day with me you will know a lot about me.
What did you do before modeling?
Before modeling I played volleyball competitively for many years. I was apart of a team that would travel around Texas, and the US, playing in tournaments on the weekends.
Your personal passion or hidden talents?
My passion is traveling. I love going to new places and seeing new things. Never for very long though, I thrive off of spontaneity.
Ten years from now (you will be…)?
Ten years from now I like to think that I have settled down into a life that I would be proud of, whether that’d be continuing to model, or working a full time job, either way, I plan to look back on life with no regrets.
Favorite word?
My favorite word is legendary, because every time I hear or say that word it puts a smile on my face, brings me back to simpler days when I was a kid watching movies and TV shows with my family.
What’s no fun?
Restrictions, when someone tells me I can’t do something, or if a sign says I can’t do something, that makes me want to do it that much more.
Instant gratification?
Dallas. Every time I go home its like this weight has been lifted off my shoulders, when I go home the whole first night I can’t stop smiling, I go to the same restaurants that will always be my favorite, I see all my friends that I’ve know since I was a child. I get to see my family and we talk for hours.
Current 'eye candy'?
Lights, light shows to me are the ultimate eye candy, I can watch light shows all night!
Something 'Timeless'?
My timeless piece is this dress that I will *knock on wood* wear forever, it’s a dress made by Alexander Wang, and to me it’s the very definition of timeless. It’s beautifully made, cut at the perfect length, it’s a dress that even guys can look at and say “that dress is perfect.”
A quote that sums you up:
“All I need in life is good tea, and someone to adore.”
