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

Kathryn Sena
Kathryn is a firm believer that fashion and beauty are cyclical — everything comes back! Knowing that looking good doesn’t have to be expensive, she likes to mix less expensive vintage clothes with new pieces. She loves following the latest trends in beauty and fashion, but thinks it’s more important to feel confident in what you’re wearing than to follow what’s “in.”  Kathryn idolizes Audrey Hepburn and feels that no woman should underestimate the power of the perfect little black dress. When it comes to hair, she has finally stopped straightening and is always on the search for products that will enhance her thick, wavy, and sometimes unruly, mane. An aspiring fashion writer, Kathryn believes a woman can never have enough shoes and that you should wear the clothes, the clothes shouldn’t wear you. Contact Kathryn

Kristina Crowley
When Kristina is told that she resembles a young Anne Hathaway, a new excitement strikes her every time that she one day will have her own Devil Wears Prada opportunity.  Ever since her first manicure, it has been Kristina’s passion to share her love of fashion and beauty with others in every way possible. As a Communications and Journalism student at Northeastern University, she constantly finds herself looking to the fashion inspiration of the unique city of Boston.  Kristina believes that every person can be a fashionista, it simply all starts with the confidence.  If you feel great about how you look, everyone else will see it too. So put on some mascara and cute boots, and strut your style for the world to see!Contact Kristina

Sarah Friedman
