During the last couple of weeks I have had the honor of working with Phoenix Fashion Week on the MIM Rocks Fashion Show. Phoenix Fashion Week chose the top 5 stylists (shown above) in Arizona and gave us the challenge of styling 14 models, choosing the music, make-up and hair to go with our Spring theme.

This has been such a fun and amazing experience overall and I wanted to share my journey so far with all of you! To get started I met with owner Kim Kendall with Clothes Minded in Phoenix. Her boutique has a wide variety of local designer collections that I will be using in the show! Kim and I went over prints and colors that would coordinate well with the idea I was shooting for in my head.
This past Wednesday I was interviewed by Lauren Pfingstag, with Phoenix Fashion Week for the show, I was asked about the collection, what my inspirations were behind my looks and what to expect on the runway! Above, is the outfit I wore for the interview and below is where I bought my pieces from!
