#Inspo: I dress a lot of my clients with a monochromatic style as an easy way to show creativity or individuality. It comes across as very confident and cool.
Styling Tip: For the busy men and women on the go… Choose a palette using different shades of the SAME color. This is a great way to get ready quickly, and always looking like the best-dressed person in the room.
My Favorite Way to Wear it: Going one step further and mixing fabric textures. Example: red leather pants with a red sweater.
Trendspotting: Gigi and Bella Hadid wear a lot of monochromatic looks, as well as Victoria Beckham. Men and women everywhere can rock this look, especially in the office.

Epic Fail While Shopping: Have a plan before you enter the store. Shop with a purpose. Search for specific pieces to complete one look at a time. Otherwise, you can become overwhelmed, sidetracked, or worse, buy something you will never wear.
Your Favorite Fashion Book: “Dress Scandinavian” by Pernille Teisbaek.
Steal Style: Evangelie Smyrniotaki (StyleHeroine) and Gilda Ambrosio.
Your Fashion Superpower: When I meet a woman in person, I can scan their body like an X-Ray machine with my eyes, and tell them their EXACT size/measurements as well as what designers work best for their body shape.
