Your look is very comfortable chic. How would you describe your style?

Classic with a twist; I really prefer to wear neutral colors and add pops of color. And, since I started working here, I find that I'm wearing more pink.

Ah, so the pink walls inspired you.

Yes, and there's just lots of pink in the store.

Do you work here full-time?

No, just part-time because I'm studying nursing, taking my prerequisites at SAC to transfer to UT-Austin. I already have my bachelor's degree in art history and anthropology from TCU.

So how did you decide to study nursing?

I worked in the children's emergency room at Methodist Hospital for about a year; that's when I decided I really wanted to be a nurse.

In the meantime, working here must be fun and very tempting.

Yes, but I don't get to shop as much as I'd like. But I do love the fashions here, and Galeana (Woodson) is great to work for. She's way more fashion-forward than I am.

So you probably learn a lot about fashion from her, huh?

Yes. I never really stayed on top of the trends before, but now, thanks to, Galeana I stay ahead of them. And I definitely get inspired working here.

What was your inspiration today?

Well, I was wearing a pretty dress, but then it started raining, so I changed into this comfy linen tunic — I like the way it looks with my skinny jeans. I layered a sequin tank underneath for a little sparkle and threw on my pop of color, a pink belt.
