An Interview with Lexy of BeautyFash

Hi! I'm Lexy, a 30 something Style'nista from Philly. I blog over at BeautyFash {from Sequins to Cilantro!} where you will find my latest outfit creations or "What I Rocked", my delicious and easy recipes as well as some beauty babble. I started blogging in 2010 and enjoy it more each day. Stop over and say hi!

This interview was published on Monday, August 13, 2012.

What do you do when you're not blogging? What is your job?

Lexy: During the hours of 9-5, I am a city girl working in a super busy corporate office, running 100 miles per minute. My other full time job is being a mommy to my kiddies, ages 12 and 9, and a wife! Somewhere in between, I find the time for blogging.

How would you describe your personal style?

Lexy: I would describe my personal style is fun, practical and creative. I believe in making my style my very own and living by my own rules. I like to keep it fun by adding lots of color and creative by unconventionally wearing items, like dresses as skirts and rocking tops backwards for a new neckline

Three things in your closet you cannot live without:

Lexy: My black silk boyfriend blazer, my dark denim skinny jeans and my black and gold Tory Burch "Reva" flats.

Great fashion steal:

Lexy: All of my blazers are great fashion steals because they have all been thrifted and of the 40+ that I own, none of them were over $5.00!

What types of items do you like to save $ on and what do you splurge on?

Lexy: I like to save money on novelty pieces by combing the racks at the thrift store and finding unique and cheap items. I have been known to splurge on handbags and I don't mind spending the money for a classic and well-made handbag that will last for years.

Do you keep your older clothes or do you like to keep your closet small and organized?

Lexy: I am just starting to get over a slight closet hoarding problem and being afraid to get rid of the pieces that no longer work. I now like to keep a small, organized, color sorted closet.

4 things you can't live without:

Lexy: My iphone, nail polish, lip gloss and my light denim H&M jean jacket!

If you had a time machine that could take you back in time, what year would you go to and why?

Lexy: I would go back to 2004 - the year I was married. I know it sounds cliche but my wedding day really was the best day of my life!

On the first day of hot weather, you'll find me:

Lexy: At the water park with the kids! ...having just as much fun as they are, getting on every single water ride in the park.

I am passionate about:

Lexy: Taking care of my family. And looking great doing it!

You think this is fascinating:

Lexy: The world of blogging is fascinating! I have gotten so much inspiration from style, food and beauty bloggers!

This scares you:

Lexy: How quickly the years are going by scares me. Which is why I try to savor every moment! :)
