Evangeline’s Guide to Embracing Your Inner Sparkle:

STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD

Don’t feel like you’re forced to fit in – you don’t have to be a pretend version of yourself. Whether you are a rainbow, unicorn, or a diva embrace your inner-self!

FIND YOUR OWN STYLE

Sometimes I blindfold myself and randomly choose my outfits, then it’s a surprise! I think of my mood as a color, if I’m really happy today I might wear pink or maybe change my vibe to purple. Try switching up your style based on your mood or breaking out of your style comfort zone.

FEEL HAPPY EVERYDAY

Looking at bright colors makes me smile and gives me a boost of energy. For my Kids Choice Awards dress, I felt like a rainbow with feet walking down the orange carpet. I want people to smile and feel happy when they see the fun outfits I create!

INSPIRE OTHERS

I always want to encourage our fans to live the best life they can. I love to give tips in videos and answer comments and write back to fan mail. And I love all the encouragement we get from the GEM Squad!

ENJOY BEING A KID

Being the youngest sister is the BEST! You don’t have to deal with as much responsibility. I recommend taking as long as you can to grow up. Enjoy the easy life!

TRY NEW THINGS

I LOVE KNITTING! I am always trying new hobbies and this year was knitting. It’s great to sit back and relax when I’m bored and knit. And I love to give away my creations. I suggest you make a list of all the things you want to try.

DREAM BIG

I’ve always wanted to be a Comedian. It’s my dream to make other people laugh and smile. Find what makes your heart happy and go for it!
