Junior Nicole Do, a Vietnamese student at El Modena, embraces her culture with her sense of style. She loves wearing traditional garments such as the Ao Dai during Tet– Lunar New Year– and other family functions. “I like to embody the season of the culture, but I don’t wear it to school, ” Do says.
At school, she prefers to wear black jeans and any type of blouse or tee with platform vans and some earrings. She conforms to her family’s conservative ideals, but occasionally shows a little skin.
