"My mom recalls me freezing in the middle of my first ever runway. I was a shy but eccentric kid and I always had a fire in my heart. I feel that fire is where I got my confidence from!"

Of course, this comes as no surprise. "Rihanna is a big inspiration for me. She's very eccentric and eclectic in the way that she dresses and is very expressive, like, 'This is me.' You can understand her personality just by looking at her, and that's something I try to do with my fashion sense as well," Tati told CR Fashion Book.

The actress also said she gets some of her style inspiration from the late Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes. "I like old school and new school. When it comes to old school, Left Eye [Lisa Lopes] from TLC is big inspiration for me — the whole crazy, sexy, cool, tomboy-with-a-feminine flair vibe," she noted.
