I met Lily Saporta-Tagiuri in the 4th grade. Back then she had a head full of braids and bracelets up to her elbow- she has always stuck out against the crowd as a girl with her own style. Today she pulls together brilliant outfits of rich fabrics, vibrant colors, funky prints and delicate details that inspire those around her to play with their own wardrobes in new ways.
