Growing up in LA I was surrounded by fashion and entertainment. Interning for VIBE Magazine and working as a freelance stylist and visual merchandiser in my twenties, I was always at a party, normally dressed in a bodycon dress, heels, and clutch to match. I was constantly shopping at Foreign Exchange on Melrose, where I worked, or other trendy boutiques or vintage shops along the street. As I grew into my retail career, my style changed as well; my brand choices elevated but my core style was to always be sexy, chic, effortless, and confident. I definitely still went to VIP events and dinners and dressed elite clientele and celebrities for work, but I learned to take fashion risks. Ultimately, I understood HOW to shop and most importantly, where to shop! 

My chapter of motherhood has impacted my style tremendously. I never wanted to be caught in “mom jeans,” and even though you can see me in my own brand (Mink and Cookies), I still love to rock a sexy dress, high-waisted skirt, crop tops, and high heels. Online boutiques and Instagram have changed the shopping game and keep me on my toes. Styling tips from influencers, stylists, and celebrities now lie at the tips of our fingers, and we can scroll and purchase all on the app. It makes prepping for, say, a girls’ trip to Las Vegas fun and seamless. 

So where do my girls and I go to get all of our sexy, chic night outlooks? 

When we want to feel our best, boss-chick, sexy, turn-heads selves, our number one place to shop is House Of CB. For a contactless experience when we’re still looking for a jaw-dropping look, Revolve and Are You, Am I are our top favorites for the perfect party fits. And my absolute must-browse is Lionne Clothing.
