 If you could pick 3 fashion must-haves that every woman should own, what would they be?

1. Form fitting pencil skirt
2. Great Fitting Leather Jacket
3. Killer pair of heels or stilettos

What’s in your pockets right now?

My cell and lip gloss. Can’t leave without having both of those with me LOL..

 What is the one biggest pet-peeve?

Tardiness, I appreciate when people are on time, and I always make a point of arriving early.

What’s a great fashion tip that you can share with The Fashion Records readers what would it be?  

Pay more attention to the fit of your clothing rather than the size/number.  When you clothing fits you well, you always look more put together and confident. Another tip: you don’t have to break the bank to look fashionable and stylish! Frequent your local thrift and consignment shops you will be amazed what you can find.

What’s the most important lesson that life has taught you?

To never take the presence of loved ones for granted. None of us are promised tomorrow. Love them while they are here!

What’s the one place you should NEVER go on a date?

Uh… .maybe JAIL… anywhere with the right person can be romantic and fun

What would you say is your signature style?

 I’ll wear pretty much any style and stay current with trends, but I’m also aware of what works and doesn’t work for my body type.

Is there anyone who you admire or draw your style influences from?
