Office Style: Meet Tameeka

“I moved to America to work at Free People, and I was so ecstatic to work in a place where I can wear flares and faux fur.”

Your position at Free People…
Senior Buyer of Intimates.

Describe your personal style…
Definitely feminine boho. I moved to America to work at Free People, and I was so ecstatic to work in a place where I can wear flares and faux fur. It’s a lot more casual and laid back in Australia!

What makes you feel confident?
I always feel confident after surviving a good workout — I go to a really intense yoga fusion class and sculpt 360 once in a while. That really pushes me.

Who is your style icon?
Cher and Sienna Miller. I hear Cher is going to be in concert in Philly this year and I am forcing a friend to come with me.

Favorite part of your job?

I love discussing product. I could do it all day and night then some. I also love my team and watching them grow. Lastly — but most important — the dogs!

What are your beauty + wellness must-haves?
Drinking lots of water, moving your body, puppies, meditation and sun cream.

What do you do outside of Free People?
When I am not at FP, you will find me spending lots of time with my gorgeous pup Winnie, taking a yoga class, hiking or in search of the perfect Mimosa.

If you had to wear one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?
My Old Gringo cowboy boots – literally wear them with everything.

Favorite place you’ve ever visited and why…
Palm Springs! I cannot begin to describe the beauty of this place — there is something really magical about the mountain views and the architecture. My now husband and I visited in 2013 for the first time and ended up having our wedding there 3 years later.

What song would describe you best?
Sisters Are Doin It For Themselves by Eurythmics x Aretha Franklin. I am one of 4 sisters and all about girl power.

Most embarrassing outfit you’ve ever worn.
I went through a headband phase when I was younger.. not in a cute way, more in a washed up 80s pop star vibe..

One piece of advice you’d give your younger self.
Its ok to be unsure about your purpose in life.

What’s the first thing you’d do if you won the lottery today?
Fly my mom over here from Australia.
