Meet the Stylist: Ali J.

/ Wednesday, August 10, 2011 /
Meet Miss Ali J., student and Cotton Mill stylist extraordinaire. One of our newest faces, she has a passion for fashion that is hard to miss (she always comes to work looking like a million bucks!). 

1. What is your fashion background?
I am a seamstress and will graduate with a degree in Fashion Merchandising from David Lipscomb University in December.  Ever since I learned to sew as a freshman in high school, I have been in love with fashion--choosing fabrics, patterns, figuring out how to put pieces together. I love it all!

2. Who are your style icons?
I love Betsey Johnson! She has such a, over-the-top and quirky style. I also love Jessica Alba and Halle Berry; you can always count on them to look gorgeous on the red carpet.

3. What is a trend you love for Fall 2011?
Fur vests. They are so versatile and great for layering.

4. How do you describe your personal style?
Classic and chic, but with fun and playful pieces thrown in to mix it up.

5. What magazines or blogs do you read for fashion inspiration?
I don't have a lot of time to read blogs and magazines when I'm in school, but I do read Women's Wear Daily, Harpers Bazaar, and sometimes Vogue.
