Okay let’s get back to Alice! Alice is our go to fashion contributor and while she is one of our newest to the team you’ll have read a few pieces by her already! She’s written on wardrobe essentials and put together a killer watch list. Alice has answered a few q’s we’ve put to her to help you all get to know her a little better.
So without further a do, meet Alice Hamid.
Name or nickname if you have one:
My family calls me Alisa (Al-ee-sa). It’s how you say Alice in Russian!
Zodiac sign:
Scorpio
Where do you live and what do you do?
Ottawa, and I’m an actor!
What is your dream career/career goal or ambition?
To act consistently and work with people I look up to.
What makes you feel pretty and smart/what does it mean to you?
Surrounding myself with positive people and those who support me make me feel pretty and smart. When I’m with people who truly love me, I am my most confident, and when I’m confident, I feel pretty and smart! Being pretty and smart changes for me. Sometimes it’s physical (when I have an amazing outfit on/having a good hair day), but most times it’s about my mood and how I’m feeling on the inside.
One piece of advice to your younger self:
Take more risks!!!
Who would you say is your biggest role model or icon (fashion, career, fitness, personal or otherwise):
My mom. She is the most selfless person I know and has a huge heart. The best compliment I receive is when I am compared to her.
What you’re reading/watching/listening to:
I am currently watching Your Honour. Man, it is a tough show to watch, but so good and intense!
Favourite thing in your closet right now?
My black straight leg jeans from Mango! I am 5’10” so whenever I find jeans that are full length on me, I’m happy.
Next place you hope to travel to near or far (when it’s safe of course)?
Russia!
Best word to describe you and why?
Determined. When I have my mind set on something, I work hard towards achieving it.
What is your fitness or wellness routine?
MadFit!! I used to never work out, but MadFit’s Youtube channel changed that for me. I genuinely love working out now, and am more confident in myself than I have ever been.
What is your favorite thing to write about?
Film and TV. I love movies and shows because they evoke so much emotion and opinion. I really love hearing other people’s thoughts on something they’ve recently watched to see how they interpreted it.
What is your guilty pleasure?
The Bachelor!!!!
Favourite quote:
Someone else’s success is not your failure.
What is your favourite piece you’ve written for PSCO?
I just joined PSCO, but I loved the piece I wrote on Wardrobe Essentials!
Where can people find you online? What is your handle?
What is one thing I didn’t ask but you want people to know about you?
That I would love to hear from you! I’m always looking to improve my writing and connect with our readers. Let me know what you want more or less of.
