Chaquita Collie on Fashion

What has been your biggest fashion faux-pas?

The wrong fit. Liking a garment and buying it is just half the battle. If it doesn't hug those curves the right way then the fit could be off.

If you could only shop at one store, which would it be?

My own...lol. I appreciate wearing my own clothes because I feel like I have accurately expressed myself for the day. People see me and think...wow that's a little different. I want ladies to wear my clothes and feel set apart.

If you could change one thing about your closet, what would it be?

Literrally? I want a massive closet with mirrors, vanity tables, organized shoe centers, mannequins and a shoe chair.

Survival of the fittest: What is one item in your closet that you will never get rid of?

That's too hard. Wait let me check...ok I won't get rid of my graduation gown.

If you were given the opportunity to have a famous designer revamp your entire wardrobe, who would you choose?

That's fun! I want Miss Sixty.

Name an actor/singer/celebrity whose wardrobe you admire the most.

There are a few so I'll just say KimorBeyonSanaaRaye.

What are your best and worst fashion purchases?

I usually make good choices that I have to live with. Best would be my sequin birthday dress from Arden B.

Who makes your favorite pair of jeans? Shoes? Dress or Suit?

Jeans: Express, Shoes: Steve Madden and Dress: MIZIQ

If you had to describe your personal style in one word, what would it be?

FabluxVanitMe

If you could bring back any fashion trend, what would it be?

I like the Egyptian/Greek dresses but I would love a flashback from the 40's - 50's era.
