Jas tends to stick to clothing that she knows looks good and doesn't like to take risks with her outfits. Opting for oversized t-shirts and flattering dresses over trying out the latest trend. Her favourite colours to wear are soft browns and olive greens as she feels they compliment her skin tone and help to make her look tanned, even during the winter where she feels exceptionally pale. Most days Jas can't be bothered with makeup, but when she does want to dress up a little more, some eyeliner and a nude lip is her go-to. Her style is hassle-free and effortless, yet still clean and sophisticated looking - a true reflection of what she is like as a person.

While her brother is a more even mix of their parents, Jasmine clearly favours her Filipino mother. With almost the exact same eyes as the elder woman, many have mistaken them for sisters and often comment on just how alike they look. Jas doesn't mind this though, since she thinks her mother is beautiful. Her skin is a gentle honey and spattered with freckles - the one thing she can attribute to her father. Although her face is small, her lips are thick and puffy, offsetting her little upturned button nose. Jas has a slim stature, standing at above average height for an American woman; although she doesn't exactly tower over her friends.

Perfectionist | Thoughtful | Tightly Wound | Hopeless Romantic
(i) The one trait that Jasmine puts across before all else, is her sheer need for perfection. The apartment she shares with her brother is one of the tidiest homes you will ever find a twenty-something year old living in. Even as a child Jasmine would organise her dolls and make sure they were perfectly groomed, unlike your average little girl with ratty haired barbies missing most of their clothing because she misplaced it. Many of her friends make fun of her for this need for a cleanly and ordered life, but Jasmine doesn't mind, because they all eventually come to her, asking for help with something or the other that wouldn't have been a problem if they were as tidy as she.
(ii) Jasmine loves gift-giving, and boy is she amazing at it. After finding out what your favourite thing is, Jasmine will make it a personal mission of hers to get you a present pertaining to said favourite thing for your next birthday or christmas. Very few people can compete with her excellent choice of gifts, in fact, it's something a lot of her close friends struggle with as she always buys them the most perfect thing, that they feel under a lot of pressure to get her something just as good. It's not all about material things though, and Jasmine is thoughtful in other ways - if she sees a friend that's down, she'll do anything in her power to make them feel better, be it watching a cheesy movie, binging on ice-cream, or just sitting and listening to them rant for hours.
(iii) Going hand in hand with her perfectionist ways, Jasmine doesn't deal with discord all too well and can get stressed pretty easily if she comes home to find a messed up apartment (thanks to her brother) or something else along those lines. Jasmine knows full well this is something that she needs to work on.
(iv) She is in love with the thought of love. Having seen her parents so happy while she was growing up, Jasmine craves exactly that and can't settle for anything less; which is why she's had very few partners in her life. Jasmine doesn't do flings or one night stands, nor is she constantly on the look out for 'the one', instead favouring the approach that they'll come into her life when she least expects it. Jasmine is the kind of girl who wants to fall madly in love and have the perfect family.
