Who’s your favorite style icon? My maternal grandmother. She was always "dressed", believed in being overdressed at any time and didn't care what anyone else was wearing. As a tween, I loved digging in her mega closet (she was a treasure trove clothing/accessory hoarder). Her skincare regimen was on-point and always a priority. She bought my first "heels", taught me to be proper for an airplane ride, to keep my nails well-manicured, and loved to spend hours shopping. I spent hours teasing her hair to the perfect pouf! She became ill when I was old enough to do any real shopping/styling with her, but if she had been well, she would still have been rocking a bikini at 65!
