Barthélémy
Victoria Heiður Barthélémy (22) is a cellist, violist, and classical singer.
Outside of that, she’s also a lifeguard.

where I got them.
▶ Heeled Hunter rain boots
▶ Random grey shirt
▶ Anchor ring
▶ Ear plugs
▶ Matt & Nat bagArm and chest tat-
toos by Habba Nero & Noksi
▶ Mac & NYX lipstick

Describe your style in 5 words: Inde-
pendent, dark, sophisticated. Just
give me black and I’ll be happy.
Favourite stores in Reykjavík:
I don’t shop in Reykjavík much be-
cause I am broke as fuck, but I really
like jewellery stores like the Hidden
People. They sell stones and such.
Favourite piece: My body modifications. I
have my tongue split, ears stretched, and
lots of tattoos. I think it is the best thing,
a calculated distortion of the body. It’s
clothes but it’s not, it’s a part of you.
Lusting after: Ear weights. Glass ones. I have
ordered some and I can’t wait.
Least favourite trend: I don’t think that
people ever have to follow rules or trends. I
feel like trends are a sad part of modern so-
ciety. People follow trends to feel like they
are not alone. I guess, at the same time, it’s
a good thing because it makes them feel
better. But really, don’t do what people tell
you. Just do you.
