am honored to be
surrounded by stylish,
hardworking, talented
women every single day. Working in the fashion industry and specifically specializing in styling my client in local designers and boutiques gives me an ever-expanding network of bad-ass women who inspire me daily. Women have been inspiring the outcome of style since the very beginning. The biggest style icons of the decades still stand the test of time with their ultra chic and progressive looks.
Take a walk down memory lane with me as we remember some of the most iconic women in style throughout the decades and how to use their unique looks to influence fashion today.

1920’s - Coco Chanel: Classic, Elevated, Basics
Coco Chanel revolutionized women's fashion during the Jazz Age with her loose fitting, drop waisted LBDs and strands of lushes pearls. An inspiring “rags to riches” story, Gabrielle, “Coco” Chanel, grew up poor but through grit and hard work became a French fashion designer and a synonym for classic, chic, and effortless style still to this day.
To pull a modern Chanel look together focus on a black and white color palette, gold and pearl accessories, tweed fabrics and classic silhouettes.
