Lovelies meet: What I Wore
Name: Jessica Schroeder
Brief Narrative on your Personal Brand of Sartorial Fashion:
I aim to create looks that can't be nailed down in terms of space or time. Is that a woman from the 60s? 80s? 2000s? I combine modern and vintage pieces with a nod to eras of the past for a totally unique look.
How old were you when you figured out your sense of style?
I've always liked history, especially costume history, but I'm not sure I can claim to have figured out anything style wise! Just discovering new things as I go!
Who is your style icon?
The classic American woman of each decade.
What's your best piece of fashion advice for women?
Wear color!
Where do you shop when you want a bargain?
I always have an idea of a price I am willing to pay for an item... If the price tag is there or less, its mine!
Where are your top 5 places to shop overall?
Thrift stores (Beacon's Closet in Brooklyn), ModCloth.com, DSW, Target, Flea Markets.
What body issue do you dress around, and how?
I'm a big fan of loving the body you have. I'm pretty short waisted, but I have long legs, so instead of trying to even myself out, I just emphasize the good and hope the attention will go there!
