In Memory of Selena

Tags: Selena

Maybe it was how even against her father's disapproval, she ran away with her fiance Chris Perez, all in the name of love. Or perhaps it was the way she ached to tend to a farm, and how Perez happily agreed to bring her every farm animal without hesitation. But it could have been her perseverance since knee high. Or the fearless fashionista in her who shined in studded bustiers and luscious loose curls. No. Every aspect of her world is what made this woman adored by millions. Saying that much, today, March 31st, marks the 14th anniversary of Selena's death. Celebrate the beauty of a life taken too soon.
