Tour Fashion Blogger Julia Frakes's Bedroom
Name: Julia Frakes
Age: 22
Hometown: Northeastern Pennsylvania
College Major: Psychology
In 2007, a time well before personal style blogs were a "thing," seventeen-year-old Julia Frakes launched Bunny BISOUS. She garnered well-deserved attention for her eclectic wardrobe and informed writing, which was wise beyond her years. Since then, she's written for Paper magazine, modeled for Vogue, and contributed to countless other publications and campaigns. This is an impressive feat for anyone working in fashion, but it's particularly remarkable considering Julia's still in college. She's grown up in the spotlight of the industry, and as it turns out, her upbringing is one of her biggest fashion influences.
"My style is no doubt steeped in my childhood," says Julia, who's currently living in her Scranton, Pennsylvania family home while she finishes school. "There's a certain prairie aesthetic, which is likely the manifestation of growing up in the country, riding horses—with Pendleton blankets aplenty—and gardening in faded florals and straw hats." Julia's bedroom is reflective of this nostalgia, as she's outfitted her space with rocking chairs, re-purposed fabrics, and goods from her mother's store, Jane Leslie & Co.
