She received a bachelor’s degree in English with a minor in Photography from Georgetown University. When she's not covering her body in makeup swatches, Bella enjoys reading and writing poetry, blowing her rent money on plants, and digging around New York's finest thrift shops in search of a good gem or two. She also posts from La Bella Vita, her personal blog, which you can find at labellavitablog.net.
