Seven Days of Dapper: Alexis Agsaulio

We’re back with a brand new Seven Days of Dapper! This week we’re featuring a week’s worth of style from Alexis Agsaulio, a California-based Pediatric Nurse . *Photos by Florence Pidlaoan.

Bio:
Hey! My name is Alexis Agsaulio. I’m 27 years old, currently residing in Orange County, California. I originally grew up in the Inland Empire for about 18 years of my life. After my mom passed away from terminal cancer, I decided to leave my first year of pre-nursing to become a missionary nun for three years! “Wait, what?! Did she just say she was a nun?” [Laughs] Yes, believe it or not, I grew up very religious in the Catholic faith. I did, in fact, struggle growing up knowing deep down who I really was, but because of what I was taught, I couldn’t fully come to terms with it. I guess you can say that when I decided to enter into the convent, I was also trying to run away from those “tendencies.” After spending a year living in Delaware, then two years in the Philippines, I decided it wasn’t meant for me. So, I came back and followed through with my original plan of becoming a nurse, which brings me to today. I am working full-time as a Pediatric Nurse, specializing in traumatic brain injury rehabilitation, and it has been a rewarding journey. I have also taken up financial services part-time as well. I’ve been a tomboy my whole entire life. Even as a kid, I’m sure my mom always noticed my choice in style (I hated dresses), and even after coming out as a lesbian, I never fully accepted the sense of style and fashion that I had secretly longed for. It wasn’t until I met my current girlfriend that I began to feel completely comfortable with dressing the way that I had always wanted to. I always felt myself conforming to what my past girlfriends wanted me to wear and the kind of style they liked. But, for the first time in my life, I was finally able to express who I truly was through my sense of style. No more holding back.

Although this is considered my workout attire, you will sometimes find me wearing something similar to this on a lazy day at home or if it’s a day off with nothing to do and I need to run some errands!
