November 08: We caught you looking sweet!

Bree Spriggs

Occupation: Student

Where we spotted her: UVA Grounds

Style sense: Bree’s glasses and bag are from Urban Outfitters, her coat is Express, and her vintage boots are from Antics. She got her J Brand jeans and her stud earrings at Nordstrom, and her sweater at Finch. Her vintage scarf came from her mom. We’re guessing the fact that she studies art history doesn’t hurt her sense of color!

Haley Anderson

Occupation: Student

Where we spotted her: UVA Grounds

Style sense: Haley’s coat is from Loehmann’s, her boots are from Nordstrom, and her jeans are American Eagle. She’s layered a J. Crew T-shirt under a Penney’s cardigan and topped it off with earrings and a bag from Forever 21. Best find: her necklace, which came from the Dollar Store. She says she’s influenced by magazines, but that she “doesn’t think too hard” about her style.

Christen Smith

Occupation: Student

Where we spotted her: UVA Grounds

Style sense: Christen scored her Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress on eBay and her J. Crew coat at a Lynchburg outlet. She rounds out her look with a Longchamp bag, J. Crew boots, tights from Belk, and a monogram ring from Capri in Richmond. She wears two special pieces of jewelry: her “evil eye” necklace from her mom, significant in the Greek Orthodox religion, and earrings from her boyfriend’s grandmother, who received them from her own high school boyfriend.

Amy Gawtry

Occupation: Mother of three, and owner of the personal wardrobe shopper amygawtryshopping.com

Where we spotted her: In Belmont

Style sense: Amy says she bought everything on sale, from her Scarpa boots, Anthropologie top, and LensCrafters shades to her Chloe and J. Crew necklaces, shorts from EG and blue velvet jacket from Boden. She gets her inspiration from her friend Julie Alspaugh and from magazines, and looks for things with a unique style that can still be worn while playing at the park with her kids. 

Maisie Violet

Occupation: Playing, taking baths, eating avocado and banana

Where we spotted her: Downtown Mall

Style sense: Maisie gets her style from her European father (not her tired mother). She’s wearing a Tea Collection shirt from Petit Bebe, a hat from Boutique boutique, Old Navy jeans and Cheeritoes socks from Whimsey.

Jasminka Herceg

Occupation: Works at Silverchair

Where we spotted her: Downtown Mall

Style sense: Jasminka’s sweater is from H&M, her skinny jeans are from Delia’s, and her boots are Steve Madden. She found her necklace at Banana Republic. She describes her style sense as “really random” and says perhaps it’s influenced by the fact that she’s originally from Europe.

Whitney Snyder and JoAnne Bennette

Occupations: Corporate accounts manager; Home furnishing manufacturer rep

Where we spotted them: Shopping at White House Black Market

Style sense: Whitney’s jacket is Bandalino, her slacks are Ann Taylor, and her pearls are from Marshalls. She found her bow bag at Claire V in Roanoke; her shoes are Nine West. She gets her style sense completely from her mother, a hair dresser. JoAnne’s silver jacket is from Handprint, her slacks and top are from Chinos, her shoes are Stuart Weitzman and her purse is from T.J. Maxx. Her jewelry is a gift from her husband. Because she works with home furnishings, she is constantly looking at texture and fabric and color, and so her work life and her fashion life overlap.
