The Boyfriend as it is the most versatile fit. It can be dressed up or down, with flats or Louboutin’s.
DB: Which trend do you wish would go away?
Over the top embellishment, rhinestones and crazy back pocket stitching.
DB: Do you have a favorite Levi’s jean you love to wear? Why?
Customized 501, pegged leg, slightly oversized. I love it because it is the only one like that. You can’t find it in the stores. They are my own and allow me to show belts really nicely (I love a good accessory in an outfit).

A short bootcut with high heels.

Always pick the jeans that fit your body the best!

Eclectic, authentic, unpredictable, elegant and always with a neck treatment.
