MEET BILLIE BILLIE

 

 

 

 

 

Meet Billie Billie. 

Also known as BIllie Edwards, Billie is BABE. 

She isn't just the naturally beautiful lady, She in the past few years has been working with some incredible people. 

But Billie's beauty doesn't stem from just her appearance but her 'I don't care for what you think of me' attitude with an elegance about her presence and holds interests that makes you want to keep on questioning her.
I chatted with her about what she's been up to, how she's juggling her busy life and the ocean, how it's been working with Volcom and what she's planning next and boy is it exciting!

Hannah: Miss Billie, How is life? You look like your thoroughly enjoying yourself these days, Where are you now?

Billie: Hannah! Life is wonderful. I’m living in Brisbane for uni at the moment. I sneak down to the Gold Coast whenever I get the chance to visit my family, friends and the ocean though.

Hannah: That's rad! How has it been juggling uni life (studying fashion and business), modelling life and beach life, as I know the ocean is a must for your survival growing up in Cabarita Beach, how have you been fitting it all in?

Billie: Haha yep, I guess I’ve been pretty busy! Uni and work do take up most of my time – but I enjoy them so much that I can’t complain. Yep! The ocean is definitely my esape when I’m stressed. I feel so lucky to call Cabarita home, it’s the most beautiful town to come home to and just chill out.

Hannah: Glad to see your getting it all done. I know that beautiful Cabarita makes it worth the while to come home to. Over the history of your modelling, who are some of the past people you have worked with and who has been your most memorable?

Billie: Oh I’ve been blessed to meet and work with some very lovely people. I’ve made some really great friends with some very creative and like minded people – which has come in handy with my studies at time too.

Too be honest my favourite modeling jobs have been for my friend Simone’s swimwear label EPV modeling with Tahnee. The three of us can’t take anything seriously when we are shooting. We usually end up eating too many lollies, laughing at each other’s boy stories and looking like dorks in front of the camera. I like modeling when I don’t have to take myself too seriously and get to work with positive, chilled out people.

Hannah: That's great, I've love the Eau Paix Vie girls and their work. Another project I've seen you involved with looking like your were enjoying yourself was Volcom. Towards the end of last year you won the Volcommunity award, became an ambassador for Volcom and recently shot their campaign with Steph Cherry (who I dressed at Fashion Week), tell us a bit about it all and how it has been working with them..

Billie: I feel very very blessed! Volcom have looked after me so much these last few months, I’m so grateful to work for such awesome people. Basically I model, blog and attend some events with them – so it’s pretty amazing that I get to call that work! I get to visit the beautiful Bondi Beach a bit too, which is always fun.
That’s great you met Steph! How rad is she? Such a beautiful and down to earth girl.

Hannah: She's very different to a lot of other models she's been surrounded by, she's a lovely girl. I keep up to date with your blog too, which is an incredible assortment of photographs, both yours and sourced, do you plan to further your blogging?

Billie: Oh thanks girl! At the moment it’s more of a hobby then anything, I use it to stay inspired and creative while I study fashion. For now I like having fun with it and not taking it too seriously.
I also have a blog for Volcom on volcomunity.com where my posts are a lot more personal. I’d love to keep working on that more seriously – a travel blog would be radical.

Hannah: I'd love to see more! So what can we expect next from Miss Billie?

Billie: I’m back to studying hard again soon. But if all goes to plan I’m actually moving to India at the end of the year! I’ll be doing exchange with my university and studying fashion in New Dehli for six months.
So that’s what I’m very nervous and excited about.

Hannah: Thank you so much for joining us here at HWC. We wish you all the best with your future endeavours and hope you keep killing it in everything your doing.
