Everyone meet Cathy Cooper, stylist of Echo Park, CA. She has long hair, tattoos, and sick style. I have no idea what age she is, but she still reminds me of all of the fashion lovers that I've ever seen in their 20s. I read this interview of her and it really expanded my google search. I find her so interesting.
Here is the article from closetvisit.com...

Discerning what is essential and what should be discarded.

Water and sleep.

My friends, my grandfather's guitar, art, my dog and the earrings my mother gave me
