My next adventure...

It's amazing how in life when one door closes another opens. I feel so blessed to have experienced so many great things in my career from buying for a fantastic specialty store chain, to writing a daily shopping column for kansascity.com and now I am on to my next adventure...

I am flattered and utterly excited to be joining an innovative new company called Style Spies. Style Spies was started by 2 Kansas City natives, Mollie and Erin. These busy Mom's wanted to start something that combined all the things they love and are passionate about, and still be able to do it from home and be with their kids. This is how Style Spies was born! Mollie and Erin have an extensive background fashion and have had the opportunity to work for some of the best companies in the nation.

Mollie was a buyer for uber successful retailer ShopBop and also manager of the storefront Bop which is located in Madison Wisconsin. Mollie now lives in the suburbs of Chicago and is the apparel buyer for the high-end Children's store Wonder. On top of her multi-faceted career she is also a fun-loving Mom to a toddler girl and boy.

Erin spent years working for top modeling agencies like Ford, Elite and Arlene Wilson. She also went on to do celebrity styling in L.A. After having 2 daughters, Erin began repping the ever-popular line children's line, Mini Boden. She now resides in Houston with her family.

And then there is me! Kansas City's very own Style Spy! I will be doing everything from individual closet consultations, personal shopping, styling news segments, fashion shows,  public speaking engagements...you name it! If it involves fashion, we want to be a part of it!
