Your position at Free People…
Style Director.
Describe your personal style…
Hmmm that’s a hard one! My style changes constantly. In the summer, I wear more color and have a more 70s vibe, and in the winter I tend to wear a lot of neutrals but it really depends on my mood when I wake up! Right now my style seems to be alternating between a working girl from the 80s, a wannabe “Frenchie,” and a 12-year-old boy from the 70s! hahaha
