Other Voices, Other Geniuses: Krista Anna Lewis
my kristal ball
Krista and I met some time in college, but I trace the origin of our true friendship (when I put her number in my phone) to being bridesmaids together. I love being a bridesmaid. We should have bridesmaids for other events in life.
Krista is one of the chicest people I know. She has perfect skin and hair, like a milkmaid in a children’s book. I am always texting her for advice about buying things because she literally works for Glossier, the coolest cool girl brand.
Krista also got engaged over the summer so you should probably follow her on Instagram now so you can get the wedding content when it drops, for inspo.
Other Voices, Other Geniuses: Krista Anna Lewis
What song are you especially into currently?
I think about it all the time by Charli XCX. It's such a #blessing to be the same age as charli to get this song when I'm feeling so similarly.
What book is currently living by your toilet/bed and how are you liking it
Psychonauts by Mike Jay - It's a wildly entertaining history of psychedelic and drug research in western science. I keep pausing and reading aloud particularly wild parts to my fiance as they are half asleep at night.
What news topic will always get you to click?
What the Olsen Twins are doing or wearing
What celebrity do you genuinely think you could get with if you met under the right circumstances?
This might be my toxic trait but I low key think Harry Styles and I would vibe. Josh O'Connor is actually way more realistic tho.
Please put a selfie here:
I was feeling my makeup this day:
When have you been or felt the most FAMOUS in your life?
I got recognized by a Man Repeller fan on the SUBWAY PLATFORM and she said she loved my work as we walked past each other on the stairs going to the Q at Canal street. It was a traumatic work environment, but hot damn that felt cool.
What is your current Lock Screen?
A photo I took of my now fiance in the shower on our first vacation together. It's blurry and therefore artsy and not as lewd as it sounds.
What is your most deeply held but illogical belief?
Hmmmm what a tricky question. IDK I'm pretty fucking logical.
How many tattoos do you have, and where on your body are they? If none, what would you get if you had to?
Hold on let me count... 8! They're on my arms, ass, torso, and ankle. I'll let you guess which one's a strawberry.
What is your most irrational fear or anxiety?
Cockroaches. Like, they're fine, they're not going to hurt me, but I'm convinced they will eat me alive.
What is the coolest object in your apartment/house/domicile?
An Andy Warhol drawing I found in the trash in SoHo. Circumstances make me believe it's legit but I will not be sharing them.
Who or what is your most problematic fave?
Kim Kardashian
What is the name of your most active group chat and what do you typically message about?
Chani 4ever and it's the girly's chat. For a long time astrology was the main topic. OH that's my most illogical belief: Astrology.
Please recommend a product. Any product.
Boy Brow Arch, it just launched, I worked on the campaign and I have not seen it get the love it deserves. Best brow pencil I've ever tried.
What do you think Taylor Swift is doing AT THIS VERY SECOND?
Woah, this kinda blew my mind. She doesn't normally exist in the same spatial plane as my consciousness, so I am unable to acquiesce to your request.
What is the most annoying thing about the city where you currently live?
The fucking stench. I'm so over how shitty this city is taken care of aka defunded by Eric Adams.
With an unlimited budget, what elective or cosmetic surgeries would you have done?
OMG hold my drink, I watch too much plastic surgery analysis youtube videos for this question. I'd be getting a facelift and a boob lift in like 15 years. I've also recently been fantasizing about lipo. All celebrities being skinny again has really fucked with me lately.
But realistically, I'd be getting so many more lasers and a bit more botox. Lasers and shit like emsculpt really seem to be where it's at. Maybe a hint of lip filler. I really want trap-tox and masseter botox to help with my chronic neck pain and tension headaches lol.
How did you meet your best friend?
Swedish classes in college <3
Who or what gives you the ick?
Putting myself out there visually on the internet. Really working on this one because it's also so fun to participate in digital life.
If you have a pet, put a picture here. If you don’t, a picture of your medicine cabinet. If you have more than one pet, pick the cutest:
I just got a new kitten named Penny! Here she is for the first time cuddling with my existing kitty Coco. Bonus content is my Grandma's nude in the background.
Do you have a weird/useless/random skill? For instance, I make great friendship bracelets.
None of my skills are useless but they are pretty random. I knit and crochet! I know how to use a power drill! I know how to paint a room! I watch enough DIYs that I believe I have the ability to make a house.
Do you want a friendship bracelet?
You've already given me one!
How did you meet the person to whom you lost your virginity?
Tinder but also at a friend's art opening like a year before the tinder match.
What is a conspiracy theory you actually think is true?
Jeffrey Epstein's death seems a bit too convenient... Same with the Boeing whistleblowers...
Thoughts on God?
Nah, but also a nifty name for the unseen energy that binds us. String theory and dark matter seem to be prove everything humans have turned into religion is like kinda legit, though. We're all so small but part of something way bigger, ya know?
