LB:Your favourite make up brand?
RHESA: " I don't wear a lot of make up outside of modeling, but i like Mac abd Maybelline. can't go wrong with vaseline on the lips."

LB: Which is more fun,Photoshoot or runway?
RHESA: " Photoshoots and runway lets me interpret the designers ideas in different ways so they are both fun to do.  But l love working the runway.It was very scary in the beginning, l get a little more confident with each show. I practice my walk at home too so before l go on the runway, I  tell myself to have fun."

LB: What do you do for fun?
RHESA: "Hanging out with my friends shopping in Camden Market or Brick Lane is always so much fun. I also love baking with my mum and sister."

Pretty intelligent answers right? It was a pleasure chatting with her and Lauries Blog wishes her all the best in her future endeavours.
