“Tanice, you will be missed greatly by so many,” wrote supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. “I always enjoyed our time together. Such a vibrant and beautiful woman. My thoughts are with your family who you always spoke of so dearly.” British singer-songwriter Vanessa White echoed the sentiment: “This is so heartbreaking!!”<\/p>\n
But perhaps most poignant are the words of Samuels\u2019 own inner circle. “The sadness will not lift,\u201d wrote one close friend. \u201cThis beautiful woman who was such an incredible best friend…will be with us forever.\u201d Another family member posted saying their \u201cheart breaks\u201d over the loss.<\/p>\n

Now, the fashion influencer community Samuels was so integral to finds itself doing what it does best in hard times: coming together in solidarity and support. Est\u00e9e Laundry, The Patricia Bright, and a constellation of Samuels\u2019 modeling, branding and blogging contemporaries have publicly offered sympathy, condolences and prayers as her family grieves.<\/p>\n
At the still-early stages of what promised to be an ascendant career, Tanice Elizabeth Samuels demonstrated that influencers can be about more than beautiful imagery and consumption.

With grace, wisdom and vulnerability, Samuels shared not only her life but her vibrant self with the world wide web. For those struggling – as we all do – she remains an example of open-hearted living.<\/p>\n
Though gone too soon, her legacy of empowerment through storytelling and style endures thanks to a digital footprint buoyed by love. In that sense, like her feed of elegant ensembles and thoughtful reflections, Tanice Samuels\u2019 memory will remain perfectly curated: beautiful, nuanced and unforgettable. She will be dearly missed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
