When she’s not attending fabulous events, Alina shares her fashion savvy via her fabulous blog, Fashionista 2.0 and various other publications. We just had to know what this NYC fashionista had to say about fashion, beauty and style.
HM: Describe your style in one word.
AF: Glamorous.
HM: Who is you favorite fashion designer?’
AF: Marchesa’s Georgina Chapman because she is as glamorous as the clothes she makes!
HM: What is your dream travel destination?
AF: Nice, France.
HM: What would you pack if you could only bring one item?
AF: My Blackberry.
HM: What makes you feel glamorous?
AF: Dressing up and going out to a great charity benefit in New York. There’s nothing more glamorous than supporting a good cause!
HM: What is your best-kept beauty secret?
AF: I use baby oil as a makeup removal because it works so much better than the actual pricey makeup remover!
HM: What advice would you give to those who are aspiring to make it big in the fashion industry?
AF: As Winston Churchill once said “Never, never, never give up!” This is the best advice for anyone looking to be in fashion. Persistence is key to making it in this business!
HM: Who has the best tweets?
AF: Ivanka Trump. She is an exceptional business woman and someone I most admire. Her tweets are a mix of promoting the work she’s doing in real estate, fashion and charity with a bit of cooking advice as well!
HM: What is your favorite online shopping destination?
AF: Sephora. I love checking out new makeup products and splurging when I can! Artistspringboard.com is also good for a great fashion find from Europe. It’s an online fashion boutique based in London that sells clothes and accessories from emerging designers so it’s a sure guarantee that you’ll find something unique.
HM: What are your three fashion must-haves?
AF: My three fashion must haves are:
· Oversized sunglasses
· Over the knee boots
· Sparkly black sequined jacket
