How did your career in styling start?
The opportunity to become a stylist came when I was doing my apprenticeship in fashion photography. I fell in love with the idea of helping other people to look their best. So, I pursued it and here I am!
What’s fulfilling about your job?
From formulating fashionable ideas to producing stylish looks, going through the whole process of styling is very fulfilling for me.
How about challenges?
Since a styling requires you to find trendy items at a given budget, this job challenges me to more resourceful.
We know that you're a photographer and you travel a lot. What's the best Instagrammable travel destination for you?
My biased answer would be Seoul, South Korea since I’ve been there more than 15 times already! LOL I love how they complement style and design. Everything is visually aesthetic that it makes you want to dress fashionably.
This month, we want our subscribers to learn some style cues and fashion clues. What's the fashion clue we need to learn in order to dress confidently?
