IRL: Style, issue 8
Kimmie Smith - Height: 5'6"What do you do IRL?
I'm the Editor in Chief of Kitten Lounge, a site that focuses on fashion, style, beauty, food and music. What started as my initial passion for fashion and music (I am the great niece to the late tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson - but don't ask me to sing) I enjoy bringing people hidden finds, indie designers and musicians as well. This site has taken me to Fashion Week, press events and really allowed me to meet interesting people! I am also the designer of my jewelry line, Kitten Couture which allows you to wear seashell and stone lariats that you can wear the way you want to! Finally, I work with companies as a consultant to integrate Social Media into their plans. This allows me to show them why it's necessary! I love to go out and find the next best place to shop or eat at!

Why did you choose this look?
I chose this look as I like items that can be dressed up or down. I run around a lot and don't have time to change. I love how easy this outfit is. I would wear it just like this to go to an Editor Presentation during the day or to sit with my team to go over the editorial calendar for the following month. But I could wear this out to a party and simply bring a pair of heels with it. The color palette is perfect! I love the pops of color but that it.s not over powering and the light feeling is very whimsical. I love bringing in the grey tones of the bag as it's a great neutral and adds a pop of something in there. Finally, I love the necklace as I always wear pieces that have stone and I am a huge fan of silver. The way it peeks out of the little keyhole is perfect! This is definitely what I would wear to the next Fashion Week as it.s a mixture of a boho style brought to the modern day!

I'm graphic designer at a big design and branding agency in New York. I collect Eames chairs and am obsessed with mid-century furniture and design. I love taking photos of my adventures with my sweetheart and my friends. I also design and make jewelry, and love french bulldogs and talking about hair.

Why did you choose the first look?
I'm really digging the one piece swimsuit trend. This particular style is classy but sexy at the same time. I love the low neckline and ruffle detail. The colorful shoes add an unexpected twist to a solid black suit. I picked out this yellow tote to match my bright yellow nails and bring more fun into the look. I've been gravitating to my yellow nail polish recently, a fun cheerful color for summer that is surprisingly neutral! The silver jewelry is a perfect finishing touch for swimwear when you don't want your accessories to be too overwhelming or heavy.
What she's wearing:
- Clio Ruffled Maillot, Black $198
- EROL Large Canvas Tote, Sun $155
- ISKIA Link Wedge, Blueberry colorblock $238
- CELINA Signature Cuff, Moonbeam $78
- Brandish 'kraz' pick ring* $80
Why did you choose the second look?
I chose the dress for its feminine and floaty cut. The asymmetrical styling is truly unique. This is an easy piece to throw on and and feel effortlessly glamorous. I'm a big fan of the heel on these sandals, they add just a little height and would go with both casual or dressier looks. The stud detailing is fun and a little punk!
