WINKY DESIGNS: How would you describe your style?
JULIA SHUTENKO: My style depends on my mood. One day I want
to feel feminine and wear pencil skirts and next morning I put on my biker
boots and boyfriend jeans. I am probably never too girly and whenever I wear a
cute dress I pair it with edgier accessories, oversized coat and messy
ponytail. I like to play with my looks and am opened to new experiments with my
outfits. If I had to give my style a name it would be casual chic.
W.D.: Who’s your biggest style inspiration?
J.S.: I don’t have just one style icon and tend to seek
inspiration from the variety of sources. Probably the most of it comes from
street style photos and other fashion bloggers. I can spend hours browsing through
Pinterest mood boards in search of some new ideas. I love looking at models and
celebrities off duty looks and admire Jessica Alba’s effortlessly cool style.
W.D.: You have some pretty amazing pieces in your wardrobe
(J’ADORE)! Do any have a really great story behind them? Which one do you
consider your absolute fav?
J.S.: Ah, thank you! An item that holds the most
memories for me is the pair of Lanvin heels that I found during my trip to New
York. Do you know the feeling when you think that something was meant to be?
That’s how we found each other. I was exploring New York’s SOHO area and
stumbled upon a sample sale in one of the stores. And there they were, just one
pair and just one available size that fit me perfectly. That was such a
Cinderella moment!

| ERMAGOSH, we LOOOVE the Lanvin heels too! |
W.D.: We loved how you rocked our Words of Wisdom DREAM watch. What dream do
you personally have for yourself this year?
J.S.: I love that watch and every time I look at
it I feel inspired. This year I have set several goals that I would like to
achieve with my blog and am focusing all my energy on that. Dreams are so
important in life, they are the biggest motivators that help you move forward.
I wouldn't be where I am right now if I wasn't dreaming. Dream on, guys! |

W.D.: You have such a great resume with interning and
working in the fashion industry. Can you give our younger style savvy
readers any advice in pursuing a career in fashion?
J.S.: You have to be prepared to work very hard, be
determined, patient and never lose hope. The fashion industry is tough and highly
competitive and you need to be your best self in order to succeed. Be prepared
to start from interning and always be passionate about what you are doing.
Trust me, give it some time and people will notice you and all your efforts
will pay off!
