It has been a long time since we photographed our favorite intern turned merch assisant Gigi so today we dragged her onto the street. Below is a G- Chat we had with Ms G where she describes her look:

  • Blog:  How would you describe your look?        
  • Gigi: hmmmm good question     
  • Blog: How would you describe your pants?
  • Gigi: It's definitely structural lol
  • Blog: True.. how do you feel in that jacket?
  • Gigi:  I feel pretty bold in the jacket
  • Blog: Like butt kicking Pat Benatar bold. Sum up your look in a few quick words
  • Gigi:  Well let's see... It's an updated 80s inspired fall look.  I don't normally wear pink, but I think the coral shade suits the fall season and my usually flushed cheeks.
  • Blog: Well put! Thanks!

    At Exquisit24, it is not your tree that counts this December 25th but your tree stand. Exquisit24's Swarovski studded Christmas tree stand is not guaranteed to make your tree look more festive,  but it will make your wallet much lighter at a whopping $14,770.
