Exciting news Fashionistas!!! Just as we do with our own closets, it was time to evaluate the great pieces we have and analyze what we were missing. In the fashion world, it’s referred to as a closet audit.

That being said, we have done some auditing of our own and are excited to say we are now in the process of many new and exciting changes! We will continue to hold true to our brand and continue to cover all things fashionable while expanding into lifestyle categories.

Ulysses Vazquez is our first Fashionist-o! He is an accomplished fashion stylist and interior decorator. Raised in NY, Japan, and NJ Ulysses was exposed to and gained an appreciation for fashion and style by his mother at an early age. His extensive travel gained him an appreciation of art, culture, fashion and interior design. Ulysses spent several years holding top fashion styling and management positions at Hugo Boss. He dressed local socialites, celebrities and sports personalities. Just some of these included, Heidi and Cole Hamels, Daniel Briere, Allen Payne, Mike Quick, Joan Jett and Kenny Loggins, before leaving to open his own fashion and interior design business.
