The Supermelon

Alright, so last week or so, I get an email from Patrick Lee, editor of The Supermelon, to do a "real style" article about me. Of course I was more than willing and extremely flattered to participate in his article. More so, when I saw Jessica Yorkin, a friend who I've talked to on forums often, was also featured, I had to do it as well.

They made this awesome collage of previous outfits and a few other pictures that I never posted. Click on the college to take you to the direct interview, and leave your comments or thoughts while you're at it!



Your Look? My style varies day to day. Girly shoes. Tight jeans. Perfect waves (born with it). Frilly shirt. Biker jacket. Nude lips. Bangles, loves them. High hems. Basic clothing. Sometimes eclectic. Sometimes casual. Sometimes inappropriate. Really, it’s all about my mood.

Inspiration? There are many things that are a day to day inspiration. Namely people — all sorts. Sure small things inspire me (music, literature, oldies), but it’s all derived from the human sweat. I’m currently loving Kate Lanphear, Alison Mosshart, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mary-Kate, Carine and Julia Roitfeld, Margherita Missoni and street style. My boyfriend James and best friend Ted are always inspiring me as well, albeit, mainly to maintain a good head on my shoulders.

Favorite Haunts? I love re-consignment stores because the thrill of finding an awesome designer item is the ultimate high. Personally, being a college student on a budget, I wait for end of the season sales. Such as today when I went to the Barney’s Warehouse Sale and picked up a pair of these awesome light pink Stella McCartney jeans et al, for such a great price. My other secret is Shopgoodwill.com, I’ve been tracking down some beat-down Doc Martins that I seriously need to invest in before Fall.

Grooving To? Joy Division’s post band New Order, French Kicks, Late of the Pier, Kanye West, The Kills, Broken Social Scene, Cut Copy, Cold War Kids, Out Hud, Rhianna, Goldfrapp, and Yeah Yeah Yeah, you know, to name a few.

Can’t Live Without… Any fabulous girl canNOT live with 5 necessities: dark jeans, bad-ass heels, white-v neck, blazer, and a smile. Oh, and I don’t think I can live without the Internet.

On Saturday night, I’m rocking… the clouds away, letting the music have its way, then stealing your heart away.

Anyway, The Supermelon is an awesome, clean website that features a ton of up-to-date news from fashion to traveling. Ever so often, they pick a stylish gal to be featured on their website, you can also go ahead and email them in a chance to be featured as well. Other than that, it's also great to have in your bookmarks as a highlight of what's going on in the fashion industry.
