Gabi Valladares

Gabi is a fourth year student at Northeastern University studying communications, but she also has a not-so-secret love for beauty and fashion. You can find her on Newbury Street every weekend perusing the new trends, or down in the South End searching through mountains of vintage treasures. She thinks the best look is au natural so you’ll often see her sporting soft colored makeup and neutral nail polish. However, on a few occasions she can be seen wearing the brightest teal nail polish available in stores. As for fashion, Gabi keeps it simple with layering the basics, throwing on a belt and adding some big, bright accessories. She’s a firm believer that looking looking fashionable doesn’t need to cost an arm and a leg; all it takes is some creativity and a few magazines for inspiration! Contact Gabi

She is a lover of vintage clothes, stacked heels, and gaudy jewelry.

Kenzie is a recent grad living in Boston. Day to day she lives and breathes the world of strategic communications, but in her spare time Kenzie enjoys learning new things in the kitchen, trying her hand at Pinterest DIYs and pursuing the perfect pair of jeans.
