THE BAG:
1. What essentials do you carry in your Hipsters for Sisters bag?
I always have my iPhone of course (I don't go anywhere without it!), Smiths
minted rose lip balm, car keys, cash, lipstick queen (hello sailor) cc &
cash.
2. How do you determine the perfect bag to go with your look?
Well I buy into a bag that will be a great cross over piece. I chose
the Indigo bum bag cause navy can be a neutral and go with just about anything,
even black.
3. Favorite local haunts (shopping, dining, etc!) i.e. - where does your
Hipsters bag go on a typical day with you?
Since I’m a stylist I go to some major stores where policy is that you
have to check in your bag in studio services — this means you better wear
something with pockets because your hands are full of clothes and where do you
put your iPhone?! That’s why my Hipsters
for Sisters bag goes with me on my pull days, no muss, no fuss. The stores I
frequent include Nordstrom, Barneys, Zara, Madison, Intermix and Madison.
THE STYLE:
1. Describe your style in 10 words or less
Effortless, chic, polished, edgy, versatile.
2. If you could only wear one outfit for the rest of your life, what
would it be?
I cannot answer that question, there is nothing I would commit to even
if I love it more then life itself right now! The main reason that I live for
fashion is that you have the ability to change — you can be anyone you want to
be at any time. That is fashion.
3. What piece(s) are you looking to splurge on next?
Lately I am really into shoes, I want to get some flat form sneakers
or flat form loafers like the Stella McCartney ones. I feel like I can see that
trend staying around for a while and its a great balance between dressed up and
dressed down.
THE PROCESS:
1. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
I usually pick out my clothes the night before, something I did when I
was in elementary school and I still do it to this day. You never know what is
going to happen in the morning, so I get as prepped for the next day as soon as
possible. Last minute emails happen, social media, blasting out my TFS post for
that day and general conference calls. So it takes me about an hour to get
ready that includes a good breakfast. I always have a good breakfast to skip
lunch.
2. Breakfast, lunch & dinner – what are you eating?
No lunch like I said before. Breakfast: gluten free waffle (plain), 2
dates, English breakfast tea, and 1 hard boiled egg. Dinner: my husband is an
amazing cook and he makes us lots of veggie dishes that are gluten and meat
free.
3. On a typical day of taking pictures for your blog, how many bags does
your team need to carry? What’s in the bags?
For the blog, its just my husband and I. I have a rolling rack in my
closet of items to be shot and looks I want to talk about, so its very planned
out. We schedule a day and do about 5-7 looks since we are both working all the
time. Sometimes when we have down time we will go out and shoot the look I am
wearing at the moment — that happens probably 1 day every week.
4. Top tips for taking the perfect photo?
Find your angle, find something that represents you — once you find
that you will automatically relax and then its perfect because being yourself
is true style.
5. AND FINALLY: What’s your style motto?
"Fashion
shouldn't just be about the latest labels or how much you spend or even at what
stores you shop; true style can be found at the ends of the earth and in the
most unexpected places. Fashion is defined by how you creatively style an
outfit- how it makes you feel and essentially how you make it your own."
