Summer Bellessa's journey as a model began at the tender age of four, and by the time she was 17, she had already had the opportunity to travel the world, working in some of the most renowned fashion capitals, including Paris, Hamburg, New York, Miami, London, and Tokyo.
Throughout her modeling career, Summer had the pleasure of working with numerous prestigious brands, such as Clairol, Sears, Target, Shiseido, Secret, Glamour, AT&T, and Vidal Sassoon, which not only honed her skills but also broadened her horizons, exposing her to the world beyond her hometown of Chicago Heights, Illinois.
As her modeling career progressed, Summer's entrepreneurial spirit began to flourish, and she effortlessly brought together creative and talented individuals to launch Eliza magazine, a fashion and lifestyle publication that could be found in Barnes & Noble stores across the country.
Today, Summer is a multifaceted creative force, working as an art director for various brands and magazines, a producer, and an actress. Her credits include appearing in the found footage thriller Amber Alert, opening case 25 on Deal or No Deal, and creating content on her YouTube channel The Girls With Glasses.
However, Summer's greatest creation is her family, which includes her husband, Kerry Bellessa, and their three loving and rambunctious children, Rockwell, Phoenix, and Nova. She has a remarkable ability to seamlessly integrate motherhood and stylish living, a talent that has been showcased in her heartwarming blog post on Babble.com, in which she allowed her four-year-old son Rockwell to dress her for an entire week, titled "Toddler Stylist," which went viral and led to her being featured on The Today Show, The View, BuzzFeed, and even earning her a Tedx talk.
