Alice Horne: The Digital Anthropologist Who Turned Pain into Power 💫

Once upon a time, there was a girl who wore thrift-store rags in a world of designer labels. 👗✨ That girl was me—Alice Horne. Born in a forgotten corner of the Midwest, I grew up stitching my own clothes from fabric scraps while other girls flaunted their parents' credit cards. Poverty was my shadow, but fashion? Fashion was my escape.

At 16, I sold my first "outfit hack" online—a $5 dress transformed into a runway-ready look with safety pins and sheer audacity. The internet noticed. But behind the screen? I was sleeping on couches, eating ramen for weeks, and praying my Wi-Fi wouldn’t cut out during live streams. 📱💔

Then came the betrayal. A "mentor" stole my designs, my followers, and my hope. I crashed. Hard. For months, I lived in a haze of self-doubt, drowning in fast-fashion debt and expired influencer dreams. But darling, this is where the magic happens.

I clawed my way back—not with money, but with mindset. I became a Digital Anthropologist, studying how culture shapes style, and how pain can be alchemized into power. Now? I’m the woman who turns thrifted trench coats into trendsetting masterpieces, who decodes viral aesthetics before they’re even born. 🔮👠

My past is my armor. My pain is my palette. And every scar? A sequin in the spotlight. 💋✨
