I am wearing a 3.1 Phillip Lim navy tank over an Armani Exchange dress. These are my favorite pair of shoes (I even ride my bike in them), but then again platform Chloés never go out of style. My bag is also by Chloé. I love to wear bright eye-catching colors (especially when meeting new people!). When my clothing choices are fairly conventional, spice up my look with an offbeat accessory like this off-centered belt (J.Crew).

Jena has a razor-sharp sense of style. She runs the Chicago-centric fashion and beauty blog, ChiCityFashion. Most recently, she interviewed of-the-moment nail polish designers Ginger & Liz.
I spotted Emily, yet another impeccably dressed American Apparel associate. Every time I see a well-dressed American Apparel employee I fall more in love with the “New Look.” I adore the quirky twist on classic styles. The new collection can easily be blended in with such disparate brands as classic prepster label J.Crew, as well as ultra-trendy fashion superpower H&M – two of my favorite places to shop. It takes cojones to pull off some of their oddest pieces (e.g. micro-mesh harem pants), but isn’t that what great fashion is all about? Confidence and trendsetting go hand-in-hand, and true style is never created by followers.
