Profile

Where do you live? Please list country or state, not your planet.: Washington, DC

Do you work in the fashion industry?: I work in fashion

About Me ...: A 30-something shopaholic who loves style more than fashion, class over trends, and has never met a lipgloss she didn't like.

Fashion Industry Experience: I am a freelance writer specializing in beauty and style, and am a wardrobe consultant and personal shopper.

I am the owner and editor in chief of Wardrobe Oxygen (wardrobeoxygen.com), a site that offers tips and tools for all women to achieve personal style, regardless of age, figure or budget.

I am also the owner of My Wardrobe Today (mywardrobetoday.com), a blog where I photograph my daily personal style and provide beauty product reviews. The goal of this blog is to show that every woman can have style, no matter her age, dress size, or income.

I am a monthly columnist for Budget Savvy magazine, and am a member of and contributor for Splendicity and Coutorture.

I have over a decade of retail experience, mainly in personal shopping, training and visual merchandising. I have predominately worked in apparel, but have also worked in cosmetics and skin care. I have maintained my blogs and have been doing wardrobe consulting for three years.

Favorite Fashion Designer or Fashion Brand: Tom Ford, Vivienne Westwood, Diane von Furstenberg

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...): http://wardrobeoxygen.com

Gender: Female

Age: Over 18

What is hot in fashion this year?: It's hot to be true to yourself and not be a slave to trends. As Yves Saint Laurent said, "fashion fades, style is eternal."

Since you are new to the USA market, you may want to pick up a salesman guide (directory of buyer names and contacts). If you are not sure where to find those let me know.

I am new to the US market and I have just launched a line of 100% Silk hand painted apparel. Please take some time to look at the website: www.texeresilk.com. I will appreciate any comments and suggestions. Thanks
