Fashion Statement

Seen at: Gulfshore Life’s Fashion Fever at Blu Sushi

Who are you here with? My boyfriend, Ryan Chiodo.

What are you wearing? A Donna Karan blouse and a Betsey Johnson skirt that I bought eight years ago. My shoes are Nine West. I’m also wearing a beautiful watch that my boyfriend bought me, and my earrings and clutch are from Italy.

Why did you choose this? I’ve had this skirt for a long time, and lately I’ve been inspired to wear it again. I just wanted to do something different.

What is your fashion philosophy? I’m a mom on the go, so I believe that you can be practical but at the same time look fabulous by combining different pieces, like affordable shoes with one piece that may be a little more pricey. It’s all about feeling comfortable.

Whose style do you admire? I like a combination of Nicole Richie and Jennifer Lopez. Nicole’s fun, and J. Lo is flirty.

What are you most comfortable in? I love dresses.

Where do you like to shop? Lots of different places, but Anthropologie is my favorite store.

What is your favorite accessory? A smile.

What new trends do you like or dislike? I don’t like to go too trendy. I like to mix and match, because trends always go out of style, but classic never does.
