What are your closet essentials?

Right now white Nike sneakers, good leather jackets. I only really wear black, so I guess anything black.

What is your biggest fashion regret?

There’s a lot of fashion regrets. This is a regret, but it’s also kind of amazing. I was interning at Oscar De La Renta and I got my name ‘The Pouf’ in college, from when I used to tease my hair up high. I was a PR intern and it was show day and the day before I had just gone to the Carolina Herrera show. It was the season where they did the bouffant headband. I was like, ‘Oh, I love that! I’m going to do that!”. But, the person who keyed that show, was also keying the Oscar show and did basically the same hair. So not only did I get kind of scolded for not being able to fit a headset on top of my hair, the hair person was upset thinking I saw the hair test before the show. It was a crisis.

You always splurge on, and you always save on…

I always splurge on leather and I always save on probably jeans, because I really don’t buy them.

What is one piece of clothing you wish you could steal from your 16 year old self?

I don’t know. I had a pretty amazing homecoming dress. It was a shorter red dress, with a bubble hem and a massive bow on it. I don’t know that I’d wear it now, but it was something that I’d probably steal.

What inspires your style most?

I definitely have a mental moodboard. I’ve always loved the way the Olsen twins dress. Love the Olsen twins, love Catherine Deneuve, Stevie Nicks and Edie Sedgwick.

Your #1 style tip is…

This is a tip that was given to me that I sometimes struggle to follow, but I think it’s a good one. People wake up in the morning, and put something on, and look in the mirror and think, ‘No, I hate this’. I learned recently that every time you change, your self confidence goes down. It’s good for people struggling with negative body image to put something on and just keep it.
