ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: Styling Hard Shadows Day 1
Whenever I wear a scarf with leggings and a cardigan, my mother calls it the LA uniform. Today, I wasn’t wearing leggings, but my cigarette pants are pretty close. And while I don’t think it’s necessarily an LA uniform, it’s the perfect wardrobe combination for a stylist.

Today, I assisted Reinaldo Irizarry on an editorial for A-List International. The first model forgot to wear something that wouldn’t need to go over her head. So, I gave her my cardigan as she sat in hair and makeup. The second model was freezing in between takes the entire day. My scarf quickly solved that problem. My outfit choice was very functional.

As for the shoot itself, it was an amazing experience in the Hollywood Hills. Reinaldo pulled fabulous clothing (I’m obsessed with this Valentino) and shoes (aren’t the PVC Manolos to die for?), photographer David Solomini was creative beyond words and I adored watching Sutan from America’s Next Top Model create a fur eye for the final look. Tomorrow, it’s back to the styling rack for another day of  “Hard Shadows.”
