Style Files: Lyndsey Y.

What can I say about myself really, haha! Well, I'm Lyndsey Meaghan and I'm from a small town called Barnesville, Georgia. I grew up there and moved to Thomaston, Georgia when I was 11, and I'm hoping to move to Atlanta somewhere down the road! My job is to book and set up photo shoots for events such as fashion shows, parties, events, meetings, etc. I graduated from Penn Foster High School and I'm now signing up to get my Associates Degree in Fashion Merchandising. My interests include reading, photography, fashion, thrifting, drawing, poetry, designing, painting... Basically anything that has to do with art. :) 

How would you describe your personal style?

My style is VERY eclectic. I love vintage and very modern pieces mixed together - Basically, I dress to whatever mood I'm in. But lately I've noticed that my heart is leaning more and more to the "boho" style era each day. :)

What or who inspires you?

Nature inspires me more than anything really. I love how seasonal changes affect my mood and my color choices. Especially fall. All of the warm hues and the earthy tones mixed with all the layers... Pure bliss.

What are your fashion essentials?

Oh goodness! I absolutely could NOT live without a black cardigan. I wear one almost every day! I also love great chunky jewelry, open knitted beanies, big funky bags, and a great pair of flats. Oh, and that one pair of jeans that fit you perfectly.

What is your favorite item in your wardrobe?

My favorite item in my closet right now would definitely have to be my black suede boots! Ever since my mom bought them for me recently I just can not get myself to wear any other pair of shoes. They go great with everything!

What do you think is that one key item every girl should have?
Red lipstick or a sense of humor. :)

Do you have any fashion tips and tricks?
Fashion has no limits. You are the canvas and the clothes are the painting. You make it what you want it to be, not what others want you to make it.

Where do you shop?

I am a HUGE bargain shopper. Clearance and sales racks, here I come! My top hot spots are America's Thrift (only located in the southern states), Ross, Old Navy, Salvation Army, Goodwill, and Gap. My friends think it's hilarious that I won't spend over $10.00 on a shirt but they're amazed at how much money I save them when we shop together!
