Name: Krys Arkeketa

Age: 22

Relationship status: Confused

Hometown: Lawrence

Time in Lawrence: Whole life

Occupation: Student at Haskell

Dream job: Mortician

Describe your style: It changes, usually with how the weather is. In the summer I usually sport more rockability style but in the winter I tend to go a little bit more alternative, because you can layer that better.

Fashion trends you love: I really like the pastel hair colors, and I like that androgyny is in style now.

Fashion trends you hate: I don’t like Ugg boots; I think they’re really ugly. I don’t like flat-brimmed caps.

Fashion influences: I like a lot of pin-up models, so I get a lot of inspiration from that, but also I would have to say Nicki Minaj — it’s kind of trashy, but glamorous at the same time.

What are your favorite and least favorite things about Lawrence? We’re really community-based, and I really like that. My least favorite would have to be how people react after sports teams win.

Tattoos or piercings: Septum and eyebrow piercings; seven tattoos

What’s your spirit animal? My spirit animal would have to be Elvira. She’s really rad, and she’s a strong woman but also she’s really feminine.

Whom do people say you look like? When my hair was longer, people said I kinda looked like the evil witch lady in “Once Upon a Time.”

Tell us a secret: “Moulin Rouge” was not a bad movie.
