Who are your favorite Pinup Models?
Mosh, Ashley Marie, Gina Carla, Vintage Vandalizm, Greta Macabre, Sabina Kelley
Past or present inspiration?
Raquel Welch and Sophia Loren. Raquel, because she owned her sexpot role fiercely and confidently. Sophia, because she was stunning and eminated class and made men wish they had her and women want to be her. Both are exotic and amazing looking in their 80’s.
What is some of your favorite clothing lines? Favorite Designers?
I love Modcloth, Unique Vintage, HellBunny, and Pinup Girl Clothing. Wish I could afford them all!
If you could shoot with any photographer, past or present, who would it be?
Sherbert Birdie and Celeste Giuliano. The images they create are so breathtaking and perfect. They make anyone into bombshells!
What is your favorite color and why?
Red. Its passionate, attention grabbing, symbolizes love and power, and just looks great when I wear it J
If you could have dinner with anyone, living or dead who would it be?
Dita Von Teese. I would faint. She is a goddess. To have some of her sophistication, style and personality rub off on me would be a dream come true!
How did you get your model name?
Well Ive always liked the Mercedes vehicles because they are luxurious and create envy. It was also my name in Spanish class. I thought the z made it more unique. As for the Minxx, I have a male friend who always says, “Heres my saucy little Minx!” I just loved it. It represents me well I think!
What is your favorite city to visit and why?
Miami, Florida. The Cuban population remind me of my grandmother. The beautiful sand, ocean, social scene and food make it worthwhile.
Do you have a favorite song or artist?
You will laugh, but my favorite song is Everything-Hooch. Or Foo Fighters-Darling Nikki. Gotta love 90s!
