Your favorite bargain stores are... I shop at a lot of local thrift and vintage stores, and I love to shop on Etsy for unique vintage pieces. My other favorites are Forever 21 and H&M. Occasionally, I can find great sales at Urban Outfitters as well.

Items that are worth the splurge to you include... I usually splurge on shoes. Shoes are worth saving your money for because the quality of the shoe really matters in the long run. Occasionally, I'll also splurge on a piece of jewelry if it's something that I know I'll be wearing for a long time. 

Your must-have trend for 2012 is... I'm really looking forward to continuing to mix masculine and feminine pieces again this year. 

Your favorite item in your closet is... My vintage motorcycle jacket.

The style in your town/city could be described as... Usually it's pretty laid-back, and honestly it can be quite boring. 

Your dream job would be... Probably blogging full-time. Or, I'd love to work on my vintage shop full-time and not have to worry about anything else. That would be pretty awesome. 

Your go-to outfit for a night out is... I usually go for a nice body-con dress with a jean jacket over it and a pair of giant platform boots.

To a job interview, you would wear... A blazer, a pair of high-waisted trouser pants that fit nicely (not too tight or too loose, and not too long at the bottom), a feminine-colored blouse beneath the blazer, and some closed-toe heels. 

The most played song on your iPod is... Right now it's Lana Del Rey's "Video Games."

Your future aspirations include... I'm an art student, and my concentration is Illustration.  I'll be getting my Bachelors in Fine Arts in about a year or so, and then I'll see where my art takes me from there.
