She has a slim, statuesque build and seemingly flawless, warm, caramel-colored skin. Dark, thick locks of hair cascade down her back and curls around her youthful face. She has a prominent nose and full lips that always look poised to speak something important, but her most compelling features are her piercing brown eyes that can change from affection to aversion in an instant without notice. Weighing in at a little over one hundred sixty pounds (thanks to a consistent workout routine) and standing at five feet, ten inches tall in flats with all the grace and poise of a queen, Kyla probably could have been a model if she had wanted to venture into that profession. She carries herself elegantly with good posture, long confident strides, and her head held high. Due to this and her love of high heels, she often looks taller than she really is. The young woman also has a total of five tattoos; three cover her entire forearm, and the other two are on her thighs. When it comes to her fashion sense, it's no surprise that Kyla always dresses to impress and loves making statements and setting trends. Her style can best be lumped in with urban-chic or street wear fashion. She has a talent for putting an interesting twist on what she wears, mixing high-end and low-end effortlessly. She does love striking makeup, though only when she wants to make a scene; her everyday glam consists of nude and brown shades of eye shadow, lipstick, and blush; she makes sure not to cover her freckles when applying makeup. As far as jewelry goes, Kyla is always iced out. With her flashy necklaces, rings, and bracelets, she can make the most basic and minimalist outfits look like they belong in a fashion editorial.[/indent] [color=#7A2528][b]Personality:[/b][/color] [center]Confident [color=#7A2528]♦[/color] Brutally Honest [color=#7A2528]♦[/color] Charismatic [color=#7A2528]♦[/color] Careless [color=#7A2528]♦[/color] Free-Spirited [color=#7A2528]♦[/color] Non-Committal [color=#7A2528]♦[/color] Comical[/center] [indent][color=#7A2528]»[/color] Ever since the day she was born, Makyla Jones has been an adventurous free-spirit, something that she without a doubt inherited from her mom; Kyla's mother was the epitome of a free-spirit. She was child of the 60's and 70's; she made her own clothes, dated men on her own terms, always spoke her mind and had a mess of thick, Italian-American hair, which she never wanted to tame. Kyla vividly remembers going through puberty and her mother telling her that she didn’t have to shave her legs or wear a bra if she didn’t want to. She was taught that makeup, clothing and all other objects of vanity should be tools to make her happy, not anyone else. She was shown that women can too be bold and adventurous. Kyla took her mother's advice to heart over the years, so it’s no surprise that she ended up being a free spirit herself. For as long as anyone can remember, Kyla has also proven herself to be a calm, cool, and collected individual. Kyla is very laid-back; she doesn't stress over little things, simply preferring to take them in stride. If you were to ask one of her close friends to describe the young woman, the first few words that would come spilling out of their mouths would be something along the lines of "sarcastic," "brutally honest," or "quick-witted." In her community, Kyla is known for her ability to come up with hilarious jokes or comebacks on the spot; this can easily be seen in one of her earlier YouTube videos where she hosted a "roast session" with a couple of boys from the local middle and high schools. Another positive trait that Kyla possesses is her personality or charisma; this, paired with her natural ability to make others laugh, was what initially drew people to her videos. Unfortunately, while Kyla does have many great, positive attributes, she also has a few that she needs to work on improving or getting rid of altogether, the main one being her brutal honesty. While this can be fun to use in her videos, it also tends to put a burden on her long and short-term relationships. Kyla always speaks what's on her mind, and doesn't always stop to think about how what she says will affect the feelings of others. When this is paired with her sarcastic nature, it is easy for Kyla to hurt the feelings of those she cares about. Another negative aspect of Kyla is that she is very non-committal; unlike most of her peers, Venus prefers not to be tied down to just one man or woman. Although she is very upfront with this, she has unfortunately broken her fair share of hearts. [/indent] [color=#7A2528][b]Habits:[/b][/color] [indent][color=#7A2528]»[/color] One habit that Kyla desperately wishes to get rid of is her strong case of Resting Bitch Face; despite her genuine, friendly nature, the young woman often "scares" or intimidates those who don't know her too well with her mean mug. Another habit that she is working on would be her unconscious tendency to use foul language or profanity when engaged in regular conversation. Like her mother, Kyla has the mouth of a sailor; when paired with her careless and uninhibited nature, this can definitely be a recipe for disaster in certain situations. Kyla is also a bit of a cleanliness freak; when she isn't working or doing something related to school, she can often be found straightening things around her room or apartment. She also takes two, and sometimes even three, showers a day: one in the morning, and one before bed. A habit that may also annoy some of her neighbors would be how late she stays up every night; thanks to her busy schedule, Kyla will keep her lights burning until at least two o'clock in the morning.

She was raised by a single mother named Beatrice who worked as a high school art teacher; she didn't bring in much money, but she made just enough to afford them a two-bedroom apartment and keep food on the table. Since Kyla's father was an anonymous sperm donor and her mother rarely brought men home, she never had a father figure around the house; not that she needed one. Kyla always believed that all she ever needed in this world was her mother, therefore she never tried to find out more about who her father was or why he'd gone to lengths such as helping impregnate random women for a couple hundred bucks. When Kyla was sixteen years old, her mother decided that it was time for a change; Beatrice packed up all of their belongings and moved the small family to New Orleans, Louisiana, where she would soon obtain a new position as an elementary school art teacher and place her daughter into one of the local high schools to finish her secondary schooling. It was around this time that Kyla began to realize just how easy it was for her to make other people laugh. Not only would she participate in the group roast sessions that would go down during lunch, but she'd also eventually begin to record these sessions. By the end of Junior year, Kyla had accepted the challenge of becoming one of YouTube's hottest personalities; she begged her mother to buy her a better camera, and eventually began to branch out into many different categories and topics for her videos. Makyla graduated from high school with a solid B average and a heart set on being a fashion designer. Lucky for she and her mother, the young woman was accepted into a University not too far away from home where she could further her education. It wasn't until after Kyla's 22nd birthday that she decided it was time for her to move out of her mother's place; Redwood Apartments was not only her best option for financial reasons, but also for commuting purposes. Since she doesn't drive, Kyla figured it would be smart to live close to her college campus; in other words, it wouldn't cost much to take a Lyft to and from her few destinations. [/indent] [color=#7A2528][b]Extra:[/b][/color] [indent][color=#7A2528]»[/color] Kyla never learned how to drive; she's always been so used to just taking the subway or catching a cab. [color=#7A2528]»[/color] She has a black cat named Jupiter and believes that he brings her good luck.

I just don't think that we'll ever be super close friends since I'm a lot more more outgoing, extroverted, and... chatty than she tends to be."[/i][/indent] [color=#7A2528]»[/color] [color=a36209][b]ᴄʜᴀʀʟᴏᴛᴛᴇ ᴀɴɴᴇ ᴛʜᴏʀɴᴇ[/b][/color] [indent][i]"It's really unusual for someone as charismatic as I am to not be able to find the right words at any given time, but whenever I'm around Charlotte, I never know what to say out of my mouth.
