LOOK OF THE DAY 9.24.2013

Save The Future

Sometimes the weight of the world seems to weigh a little heavy for my comfort. For whatever reason, the best way for me to shake it is by putting on a fun outfit and a great playlist. This look is a reflection of this. Check out one of my jams below. 2 Chelsea Coffey LOTD 9.24.13 3 Chelsea Coffey LOTD 9.24.13 JPG 4 Chelsea Coffey LOTD 9.24.13 5 Chelsea Coffey LOTD 9.24.13

This is one of my favorite sweatshirts in time. Short of it getting physically destroyed, I plan on hanging on to it forever. Hopefully it’s message plants the seed for those who view it to give back, get involved and make a difference.

Looking for an organization to get involved with? Check out my nonprofit Mia’s Closet. We’d love to share our story with you!

New job. New beginning. Endless opportunity.

Hey guys!
This is long overdue, but I have exciting news! God is amazingly wonderful and gracious! I couldn’t be more excited to announce that I have a new job! As of September, I was brought on the Houston Style Magazine team as their Fashion and Social Media editor. My first assignment was Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Spring 2013 which I attended with Houston Style Magazine National Entertainment reporter Rebecca Briscoe in New York, New York.
I had the wonderful pleasure of interviewing author and celebrity stylist June Ambrose after the Rebecca Minkoff show! Video below, enjoy!

June Ambrose on MBFW, Her Must Haves &  Being a Rockmom!

For those of you who may be unfamiliar with June, aka the Style Curator and Rock Mom, here’s a tidbit about her from her website: 

Whether designing custom metallic leather pants for Sean “Diddy” Combs and Busta Rhymes, One of a kind pieces for Jay Z & Will Smith or Styling & crafting couture outfits for divas such as Zoe Saldana, Missy Elliott, Kelly Ripa, Kim Cattrall, Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige, Alicia Keys, Estelle, Garcelle Beauvais and Ciara, June has left an indelible mark on today’s youth, inspiring countless trends and major fashion statements found in popular culture.

Despite various accolades and titles, June Ambrose has been every bit of an awesome example of how to grace her transition to greater fame in humility. She was unbelievably warm and approachable and gave us a meaningful (& long!) interview. It was a really pleasant experience, and I will definitely use her welcoming disposition as my personal standard in the future.  Just watch 😉
Best,
-Chelsea
