Ashley Park, the talented actress who plays the role of Mindy Chen in the hit Netflix series ‘Emily in Paris’, has recently opened up about her experience filming in the beautiful city of lights. In an exclusive interview, she shared her love for Paris and her passion for fashion, along with her tips for mixing high and low fashion. But there was one thing she couldn’t stop talking about – her love for Taco Bell.
As a Korean-American actress, Ashley Park has always been proud of her heritage and has never shied away from incorporating it into her work. However, while filming in Paris, she found herself missing one of her favorite American fast-food chains – Taco Bell. In an interview with Vogue, she revealed, “I miss Taco Bell so much. I know it’s not the most glamorous food, but it’s my comfort food.”
Park’s love for Taco Bell is not just limited to the food, but also the memories associated with it. She shared how she used to go to Taco Bell with her friends after school and it became a ritual for them. “It’s not just about the food, but the memories and the nostalgia that come with it. It’s a reminder of home for me,” she added.
Despite being in the fashion capital of the world, Park couldn’t resist her cravings for Taco Bell. She even tried to find a Taco Bell in Paris, but to her disappointment, there wasn’t one. However, she didn’t let that stop her from enjoying her favorite fast-food. She shared her tips for mixing high and low fashion, saying, “Just like how I mix high and low fashion, I also mix my love for Taco Bell with my love for fashion. I would wear a designer outfit and pair it with a Taco Bell t-shirt or accessorize with a Taco Bell-inspired accessory.”
Park’s fashion sense has always been praised, and her unique style has become a source of inspiration for many. She believes that fashion should be fun and not taken too seriously. In her opinion, mixing high-end designer pieces with affordable fashion is the key to creating a unique and personal style. She also encourages people to experiment and not be afraid to mix different styles and trends.
During her time in Paris, Park also discovered some amazing vintage shops and thrift stores, which she incorporated into her fashion choices. She believes that these hidden gems offer one-of-a-kind pieces that can elevate any outfit. Her love for vintage fashion is evident in her character’s wardrobe in ‘Emily in Paris’.
Apart from her fashion tips, Park also shared her love for the city of Paris. She described it as a magical place that has a special energy that can’t be found anywhere else. She fell in love with the city’s architecture, art, and culture, and it has become her second home. She also mentioned how she enjoyed exploring the city and trying out new restaurants and cafes.
However, the one thing she couldn’t find in Paris was her beloved Taco Bell. But that didn’t stop her from enjoying her time in the city. She even joked about starting a petition to bring Taco Bell to Paris. “I think it would be a hit here. Who wouldn’t want a taste of America in the heart of Paris?” she said with a smile.
Ashley Park’s positive attitude and love for life are truly inspiring. She has shown that no matter where you are, you can always find a way to incorporate your passions and make the most of any situation. Her tips for mixing high and low fashion and her love for Taco Bell are a reminder to embrace our individuality and not be afraid to be ourselves.
As we eagerly wait for the second season of ‘Emily in Paris’, we can’t help but wonder if we’ll see some Taco Bell references in the show. But one thing is for sure, Ashley Park’s love for Taco Bell and her fashion sense will continue to inspire us.
