This week’s style diary is about the young and lovely Maya Henry. The young It-girl originally from San Antonio and who spends a lot of time in New York made headlines a few months ago for having a star-studded Quinceañera which reportedly cost her parents $6 million. But Maya Henry is more than that. She is involved in philanthropy and community engagement and is an avid supporter of the Hillary Clinton 2016 presidential campaign. Maya uses her social media and the hashtag #teensforhillary, which she hopes to use to mobilize her 40,000 Instagram followers and to bring awareness to issues involving female empowerment and opportunities for Latina American women. She hopes to show that even if you aren’t old enough to vote, you can still make a difference.
Recently, Maya attended the CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) Fashion Awards along with the likes of Beyoncé, Michael Kors, Heidi Klum, and Naomi Campbell. At the event, Maya was seated with Canadian international fashion model Coco Rocha and reality television personality Jonathan Cheban, who share Maya’s interest in fashion. This week, she is sharing with us her perspective on Style.
