Especially when people see a photo and assume what they want. Does that bother you that people may think less of someone because of the clothes they have on? Do you think women should be mindful of the image that they are portraying? (Mirielys Perez) I think that yes, I think women should be mindful of their image, but also know that they don’t have to spend more to look good. You can’t even tell what type of clothes someone has on sometimes. I think its less about brands and more how you fit in clothes, I mean I found a sale where dresses where for $5.99 each and I got a whole bunch and everyone has complimented them in my photo shoot and have no idea I spent $40 something on Five dresses. It’s also how you wear it and how confident you are in it! (SISS) What is your favorite Food? What is your favorite book?  When do you feel the sexiest? What was the craziest or riskiest thing that you ever did in your life? (Mirielys Perez) I love Sushi, but I don’t have it as often as id like because of my goals to get back into my pre baby body, My favorite book has got to be the 48 Laws of Power and The Host, I feel the sexiest right after I shave my legs (I know its weird), The craziest thing I have done in my life is probably got my tongue pierced the same day I sky dived when I was 19.  (SISS) Who in this world right now is a definition of greatness and why? (Mirielys Perez) Right now I think there are so many great people trying to do right by our communities and our world that I can’t just choose one. (SISS) How much is fitness important to you and your career? How many times per week do you workout? Can you tell us more about foreverfearlessmag.com ? (Mirielys Perez) Visuapex sounds like a great service, how is this going for you? Fitness is definitely a priority in my life it keeps me sane and goal oriented. If it wasn’t for fitness I don’t know where I would be today. I workout 5-6 times a week depending on how busy my schedule is.  Foreverfearlessmag is a beauty and fashion blog that I created so long ago that I am now starting to revisit as a hobby and potential money maker.
