Style Girl Jess James | Fashion Fix Outside Barney’s “Lady Gaga’s Workshop” entrance I spontaneously made my way to NYC a few days before New Year’s after receiving an urgent message from Alisa, a NYC-based styling client I worked with while I was in the city in September during Fashion Week, thanks to my dear friend Rachel Mcpherson. Alisa wanted to surprise her fiance Vic with a Style Girl shopping package for Christmas so I packed my bags, booked my ticket on the Bolt bus from Jersey and spent the next five days ringing in the New Year. Here’s the Top 10...
Style Girl Jess James | Fashion Fix Spending the day after Christmas with my parents in Jim Thorpe, PA, we came across The Emporium of Curious Goods. A frequent haunt during time spent at my Nana’s as a teenager, the shop shrouded in mystery and magic never failed in delivering “curiousities” – crystals, wicca spell books, incense and mystic potions.

Having an almost subconscious affinity for Egyptian aesthetics (particularly triangles and pyramids), I was drawn to...
Style Girl Jess James | Fashion Fix At home, wearing my new Barton Perreira glasses I was in sixth grade at the height of my middle school popularity (pre-”Zit City” as my sister christened my most awkward years) and saw my “social life” flash before my eyes.

Style Girl Jess James | Fashion Fix When Lynn at Ziabird told me jewelry designer Maggie Orli was coming to town for a trunk show, I knew I had to meet her. Taking note of my fondness for Maggie’s raw stones and handcrafted details in her jewelry, Lynn often points out Maggie’s newest pieces along with updates on her extensive and often exotic travels. With her jewelry in eclectic boutiques across the country, as well as stockists in England, Indonesia, Holland, Thailand, Sweden and Australia, I was surprised to find out that Maggie actually grew up right here in Wilmington....
