Yes! I’m a labor and delivery nurse here in Dallas.

Espresso Martini 🍸

The ZOZO dress!

Model: Alison Kay Bowles
Age: 24
Hometown: St. Louis, Missouri
1. How did you get into modeling?
I was always told that I could never model because of my height. I was temporarily living in New York City for awhile and thought, why not give it a shot? It’s not often you get the opportunity to live there! I walked into an agency and they signed me after showing them my work.
2. Do you have another occupation? If so, what is it?
Yes! I am a travel blogger with my website wanderinheels.com where I give free travel guides, fashionable looks, and I sell my presets. I am also the CEO of Alison Kay Inc., a digital marketing agency.
3. If you were a cocktail, what would you be?
I would be a French 75 because I have great taste ;)
4. What was your favorite style you modeled?
Everything in Cotton Candy print!
5. Fun fact!
I was a taste tester on the Food Network once!

Model: Heather Lee O'Keefe
Age: 24
Hometown: Palm Beach Gardens, Florida
1. How did you get into modeling?
My mom put me into baby pageants when I was little, then I was a baby model for awhile. Then, I took time off until my teens when I needed to start thinking about paying for college. Pageants and modeling have both helped me put myself through a 4-year undergraduate degree and now law school!
2. Do you have another occupation? If so, what is it?
Yes! I will be graduating law school next month. I'll take my Bar Exam this summer to become a licensed attorney!
3. If you were a cocktail, what would you be?
A strawberry basil martini... my fave! 🍸
4. What was your favorite style you modeled?
I'm a sucker for a great flowy dress, so I'd say any and all of the BuddyLove dresses! There's too many to pick just one!
5. Fun fact!
I used to be a competative equestrian and even qualified for the World Champions!
