TWELV DIARY #12: BRITT LINN

MODEL: BRITT LINN

AGENCY: RED NYC Models

PLAYBOY'S 2014 MISS MARCH IS BRITT LINN...

Where are you from and what is your name: 

My name is Britt Linn and I'm from a small town in north Jersey.

How were you scouted to model: 

I was scouted online and eventually came to NYC to meet with everyone at my agency.

Which agencies are you associated with: 

Red Model Management NYC

What are the challenges you have experienced during your modeling career:

I had never ridden the subway or spent much time in NYC before signing, so that took some time to figure out!

What do you love about the industry: 

I love all of the creative minds that collaborate to create beautiful fashion and images: everyone is so unique!

Favorite designer: 

Nicholas K. - stunning!

What would you tell anyone who want to discover modeling…advice to break it in the industry: 

I would say stay true to yourself! There is only one you and no one can duplicate that- own it! 

Who is your role model: 

My brother- he is the kindest soul I know.

Personal style: 

My style is pretty eclectic- I love everything from tribal patterns and earth tones to combat boots and leather-mixing patterns and feeling comfy is the usual.

Currently coveting:

A getaway in the mountains! I was born in a very small town so I crave the scenery and smell of the woods this time of year.

Upcoming projects:

I'm really excited to be shooting for Italian Vogue this week and I just wrapped up a cover shoot for Chaos a few days ago! 

Workout regimen: 

I wish I could say I consistently work out. I try to squeeze in yoga and a run a few times a week, but mostly I hop off the subway early and make sure I walk alot.

How do you balance everything: 

I honestly just take life as it comes and remind myself that all of the hardwork I do today will pay off tomorrow.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years: 

I see myself still modeling, having a cozy apartment in manhattan, and going as far as I possibly can!

What is something you are unable to live without: 

Icecream.

What is something everyone does not know about you: 

In second grade I was on an elementary wrestling team: I made boys cry.

MANY THANKS TO BRITT LINN
