Ep. 79: A Fashion Career, Overcoming Cystic Acne & Posting Fire Bikini Pics Ft Chrissy Rutherford
An encore episode with Harper’s Bazaar senior digital fashion editor, Chrissy Rutherford. Chrissy has some advice for hopefuls wanting to work in fashion: "If you don’t love it, you won’t last a week”. Chrissy tells me what it’s like being a digital editor and why her perspective as a woman of color is important right now. We discuss foundation (who is it really for?),miracle cures for cystic acne and her relationship with her hair dresser. My favorite part of the interview? Chrissy gives me her candid POV on posting bikini pics and it’s an attitude more women could learn from.
