...I've worked at Mercantile Portland for over 17 years. I enjoy the clients, working with the merchandise, and the creative people I work with. My style isn't based on trends. I dress more for what looks best on my body - usually with a hint of trend. I like the feel of simple silhouettes. Cool and easy - adding jewelry for fun. I love jewelry!!! My go-to to transform any outfit is jewelry, 100%. Layering bracelets or necklaces - something that draws your eye in an interesting and creative way. I love the personal relationships I've built over the years with my clients; building their trust in me to evolve and try new things. Making someone feel great and knowing they look amazing is one of my favorite parts of the styling process. 

What's a common fashion misconception that you'd like to debunk?

You don't have to be ruled by trends. Wear what looks best on you. Just because something isn't ON trend doesn't mean it's out of fashion.
