Me and Maryan
My friend Maryan is a Pinktastic photographer and blogger, she recently interviewed me and did a photoshoot with me. We had soo much fun and I want to share the interview with you guys and the pictures. Please check out Maryan’s website at Dash Photography and her other site The LocalDash where you can see other interviews as well. Thanks so much Maryan, the pictures came out too cute!
The Local Dash Interview:
She interviews celebrities on the red carpet. She is friends with Lisa Wu of the Real Housewives of Atlanta (so don’t be surprised to see her make an appearance on one or two episodes). She adores Dita Von Teese. And this hardworking fashionista knows how to celebrate pink! She loves flirty, sexy and fun pieces like Betsy Johnson and she has mastered how to find key pieces from the most unexpected places like Goodwill and Vintage Stores and alter them in a way that dazzle. Introducing my girl….Tammie Reed of Talking with Tami!
“Tammie Girl”, what’s your signature style?
Hmm Maryan, I don’t know if I really have one lol. I love so many pretty things but I love the color pink and adding it to anything I wear. I love a poofy dress too. I have a very eclectic style of dress. Flirty, sexy and fun!
Biggest Splurge?
My biggest splurge is anything Betsey Johnson or Tarina Tarantino love their stores, omg too pinkalicious!
I gotta have?
I gotta have a Pinkalicious dress, eyelashes, fab purse, my M.A.C. Cosmetics, pinktastic shoes, great pedi and mani and of course great sparkly accessories! What girly wouldn’t love that ha!
Favorite Labels?
My fav labels are: Betsey Johnson, Patricia Fields,Barbie, Lilly Pulitzer, Pink from Victoria’s Secret, Juicy Couture, St.John, & Pinup Girl Clothing
Favorite Stores?
Betsey Johnson, Juicy Couture, Anthropology, Vintage stores, Saks and Nordstroms
Growing Up, Which celebrity did you love and why? OR who inspired your style?
I loved Madonna’s style when I was growing up.
Currently which celebrity inspire your style?
Today Dita Von Teese’s style really inspires me….Va Va Voom!
What’s in your Ipod/or what song makes you want to get up and dance?
I’m really liking Black Eyed Peas new song, “Imma B” that makes me wanna boogy!
What motivates you?
What motivates me is waking up and looking at my kids faces. They make me wanna do better, go out and tackle this crazy world. I don’t want them ever to need anything!
What makes you feel glamorous?
A nice hairdo,perfect makeup, sexy heels and a pretty pink dress and a lil sparkle makes me feel glamorous.
Something you own or outfit that you can’t part with? Why?
All of my Betsey Johnson dresses and shoes I will never part with! All 20 pairs of shoes are dear to my heart, pretty much all of my Betsey Johnson things, Dear Lord! I think because she is a lover of pink and we have similar taste, plus she is fun and energetic makes me love her so much!
What’s your biggest fashion secret?
One of my biggest fashion secrets is that I love to shop at Goodwill and vintage stores. Half of my wardrobe is from there and people always ask me where I get my unique pieces from. Yes, I love going to those stores! It’s therapy for me lol.
