Hi my name is James, I am a 2nd year student attending Berkeley College in Manhattan. I major in Marketing with a minor in Fashion Merchandising. I am determined to become a great stylist and run my own branding company, such as my idol Rachel Zoe. I am willing to assist in shoots, editorial spreads, magazine shoots, to learn as much as I can. I am a great listener, responsible and funny. I think to survive in this industry you have to have a little sense of humor no?

What is your favorite fashion website? (list the web address, NOT the fashion sites name. If you only list the name, the link to your favorite fashion site will not work...)
Well I can only speak for my passion, menswear. I really think bright colors are being accepted more, along with light weight khaki suits for summer, also the return of the bowtie is prevelant.
