Web Toolbar by Wibiya Hi, My name is Zoë Damacela! You may recognize me as the winner of Seventeen Magazine’s “Pretty Amazing” Cover Contest! I’m 19 years old and the C.E.O/ President/ Lead Designer at Zoë Damacela Apparel . It is a custom made and ready to wear clothing company that I’ve been running since the age of 14. I mostly make formal dresses for women ages 18-35, but have made everything from baby clothes to prom dresses. I’ve even created garments out of interesting materials like corn husks & paper bags. I love fashion and business! Thanks for visiting my page! xo Follow @ZoeDamacela Tumblr (3.0; @zoedamacela)http://zoedamacela.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_magzbgv1711r2jasto1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_magzbgv1711r2jasto2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_magzbgv1711r2jasto3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_magzbgv1711r2jasto4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><span><a href="http://www.zoedamacela.tumblr.com">http://www.zoedamacela.tumblr.com</a></span></p> <p><span>Dear Charleston, SC,</span><br/><br/><span>I hope you have a thing for brunettes because I have a crush on you.</span><br/><br/><span>Xoxo,</span><br/><span>Zoë</span></p>http://zoedamacela.tumblr.com/post/31700626353http://zoedamacela.tumblr.com/post/31700626353Sun, 16 Sep 2012 21:11:40 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0pw9aX0YQ1r5dsbpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://zoedamacela.tumblr.com/post/31700524806http://zoedamacela.tumblr.com/post/31700524806Sun, 16 Sep 2012 21:10:25 -0400<p>yes! so sorry about that- here’s the link :) <a href="http://zoedamacela.com/collection/"><a href="http://zoedamacela.com/collection/">http://zoedamacela.com/collection/</a></a></p> <p>thank you!!</p>http://zoedamacela.tumblr.com/post/31700083174http://zoedamacela.tumblr.com/post/31700083174Sun, 16 Sep 2012 21:04:16 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maf6lcNTCe1r2jasto1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.zoedamacela.tumblr.com">http://www.zoedamacela.tumblr.com</a></p> <p>It’s official.
