What are your predictions for trends in the New Year?
Camo
is having a MAJOR resurgence this year, I can feel it already! Army
green and canvas jackets have been everywhere, but I think we’re going
to see a smattering of modern camo prints on everything from bags to
jackets and denim, you name it!
When was the last time you had a fashion epiphany?
I can’t say I have them very often… I just get fashion-excited when fashion week hits and looks come down the runway that I never knew I needed! I mean, 3.1 Philip Lim’s tribute to punk rock 90s vibes? And Dries Van Noten’s light & airy grungey plaids? LOVE!
What is your favorite High brand, low brand? How do you mix high and low?
I’m
obsessed with Richard Chai, Philip Lim, Band of Outsiders, and I’m
loving the Rochas revival! I mostly shop at Madewell, J. Crew, Free
People, and Urban Outfitters, and try to emulate the looks I love most
on the runways with what I have. Work with whatcha got, ya know?
What is your go-to uniform for a day of work? The weekend?
I’m lucky enough to work in an environment that has no dress code, so you can always find me in a pair of skinny jeans and biker boots and a few layers on top. Chambray, all the way!
What is your favorite ILR piece and why?
I
love the drape circle & barre drape necklaces… I used to be really
into statement jewelry, but I’ve recently discovered an appreciation for
all things dainty, and these guys are the right mix of tough/industrial
and delicate!
Who are your style icons?
Marina
Munoz is the ultimate. She has an impossibly cool style and manages to
look super feminine and sexy while living in menswear. Taylor Tomasi
Hill is an obvious choice, but I love her bold color choices and
silhouettes… and that she can rock some high tops with a tulle Comme des
Garcons skirt! I also love Jenna Lyons, Caroline de Maigret, and Ada
Kokosar.
