EDITOR'S LETTER
ELCOME TO THE ISSUE Summer is finally upon us. The sexy romanticism of Summer is filled with those sweet nostalgic memories of vacation, endless days spent poolside or sun drenched at the beach. Summer fashion evokes that feeling of play, crisp whites, sexy silhouettes and flirty vibrant colors. In this issue we hope to inspire and re-create those magical moments with a fresh take on Summer fashion and beauty. We also bring you to one of our favorite and most stylish Summer escapes- Puerto Vallarta. It’s in this breathtakingly picturesque setting, with the exoticness and authenticity of traditional Mexican charm that we had our Cover shoot with Kristin Cavallari. We instantly fell in love with this mother of three, entrepreneur, creative visionary and author of her new book, ‘Balancing in Heels’. She is proof that as a woman we can be smart, talented, inspiring as well as nurturing. Don’t miss our Model Diaries interview with her to learn more about what’s next for our ultra-sexy and inspirational Cover girl. I would like to extend a warm thank you to the beautiful contributions of Pixi by Petra, Mystic Tan, Versa Spa, Sunday Riley and Ecopeace Swim by Aqua Green as well as the Tourism Board of Puerto Vallarta, Villa Premiere Boutique Hotel & Romantic Getaway as well as the Grande Fiesta Americana, Puerto Vallarta.

MODEL DIARIES
Kristin Cavallari
Sexy, smart, creative, a fashion icon and a true inspiration as a career woman and mom, Kristin Cavallari has somehow perfected the ultimate balancing act. Mother of three, the wife of Chicago Bear’s Quarterback, Jay Cutler, a successful entrepreneur with both a jewelry and shoe line, Kristin is the girl that instantly lights up the room with her grace, poise, infectious giggle and, somehow, completely relaxed persona. On a quick getaway, we brought Kristin to the vibrant paradise of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico where, with her natural glow and sun-kissed radiance, she took to the main stage for our cover photoshoot. This is where we witnessed first-hand her secrets to ‘balancing in heels’...and this is what we found out.

Tell us about your latest book, Balancing in Heels. My book Balancing in Heels is about every area of my life, so there’s a lot of fashion, beauty tips and tricks, a mom chapter and a wife chapter. Those two chapters are kind of like a mini memoir. It’s like a trip down memory lane so it was a ton of fun to write. I also have about 20 recipes in the book, since I love to cook. What do you find to be the most challenging aspects of being a mom? I think the hardest part of being a working mom is that I miss my kids a lot. I live in Chicago, but my work is always in New York or LA, so I always have to travel for my job. That usually means I’m gone for a couple of days at a time, but FaceTime helps a lot. I think the other hard part of being a mom is that, when you finally have kids, you realize how selfish you are. I think we are naturally selfish beings. When you have kids, that can kind of be a shock at first. I think just trying to make time for yourself is very hard. Especially now that I have 3, finding that time can be very difficult. What’s the most rewarding part about having kids? The most rewarding part about having kids is there’s just so much more love in your life. I finally feel like I have a real identity. I feel like I have a purpose here in life now. I’m a mom to these three amazing little babies and my whole world just kind of opened up. How would you describe your personal style? My personal style is effortless, minimalistic and chic. 26

TRY: VERSASPA & MYSTIC TAN A beautiful bronze glow can wipe years off your complexion while even have contouring effects that can trim inches from your waistline. But if you want to protect yourself from the harmful effects of the sun (i.e., wrinkles, brown spots, or, worse, skin cancer), the only safe glow is a faux glow. Our favorite products from Mystic Tan and Versa Spa are formulated to look natural, dry quickly, show up instantly and give you the ultimate tan without the baking tan.

Versa offers the world’s best self-tanning with powerful anti-aging skin care benefits. Products are infused with Brown and Green Marine Algae to enhance collagen and elastin and improve skin firmness, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (an alternative to Botox) to diminish fine lines and wrinkles and Squalene to promote cell growth while Mystic Tan makes self-tanning customizable by offering the world’s first full range of bronzers that match your skin tone. Whether your skin is fair, ruddy, olive, medium, dark or yellow you now have options instead of the traditional “one size fits all” self tanning color which is brown. It allows you to create a perfect healthy natural glow.
Having invented the modern day spray tan and having tanned over 100-million people over the last 15-years, both Mystic Tan and Vera Spa know self-tanning better than anyone else. They created each of the lines to fill a void in the market. With Versa Spa they realized there is a real need to merge skin care with self tanning to make it part of every woman’s daily beauty routine. The better your skin looks, the better your tan looks and by detoxifying cells and boosting hydration, creating a better looking, longer lasting more natural tan. With Mystic Tan, they saw a need to customize tanning with a full range of bronzers shades to match and enhance individual skin tones. Imagine if all women had to wear the same color foundation? It wouldn’t match everyone’s skin tones and that’s the way self-tanning has been until now. Mystic Tan allows you to create a perfect natural glow that matches your own individual skin tone perfectly. 39

THE ULTIMATE SUNLESS TANNING TIPS:
1
Legs
are the secret weapon of beauty and sunless tanners can make legs rock. Experiment with different shades, frequency and amount of product use to create shimmering legs that turn heads, and make you ‘walk tall’.
2
Do not exfoliate
right before you use a sunless tanner. Your skin contains important amino acids which help the tan develop completely and evenly on your skin. If you aggressively exfoliate right before applying sunless tanner you stripaway the amino acids and the tan can develop unevenly. It's better to exfoliate the night before.
3
Never go more than one shade darker

To get rid of that tell-tale self-tanner smell,
than your natural skin tone, or you risk spritz the lotion with looking orange or like your favorite perfume you have a fake tan. before applying. You will smell and look great too!
Summer is THE season among seasons. Some people love winter most and some love Spring most but, everyone LOVES Summer. Relax, Party, Frolic, Flirt, Tan, Tone and Enjoy. All you need is: • Positive-up-for-anything attitude • A strong SPF. • A good self tanner. It’s better to use self tanner because you don’t run the risk of premature aging or skin cancer. Even if they are in the sun, most women always cover their faces so Versa Spa’s Gradual Tan Face Moisturizer is a must-have to even out your skin tone. It’s great because it can replace your daily moisturizer. • You also want to have a good hat, an oversized beach bag (I prefer rattan) and what would summer be without flip flops? 40

HOW TO GET SMOOTH FOR THE SUMMER
MODELISTE FAVORITE The Cool Fix is a blue gel/lotion that literally fizzles out all the irritating side effects of hair removal with a soothing, time-released formula. Beneath its calming blend of botanical extracts and combination of gentle exfoliating acids that slough away dead skin, so that any hairs trapped underneath the skin can be easily shaved or waxed off. $25 for 5.3oz, $11 for 2oz, Available at Ulta.com
TOP TIPS to getting the perfect shave every time:
We have this tagline: the cleaner the skin, the closer the shave. The best place to shave is either in the shower or just after the shower because the heat from the steam will soften the hairs and help them to stand up. When you rinse in the shower or after, apply a moisturizer or The Cool Fix which boasts ingredients that are nourishing to the skin such as Boerhvia root and vitamins (A,C,E) that protect the skin from the free radicals in the environment.
Want Smooth Legs? Anthony Sosnick, founder of Anthony Brands reveals the ultimate guide to a perfect shave.

What you love most about Summer.
I live in Soho, NYC and the summer here is amazing. There is an energy that boils up from the street – especially at the first sign of warm weather. All of the New Yorkers that were cooped up in tiny apartments during winter months burst out with a fresh energy and eagerness to enjoy the great outdoors, or as we like to call it, Central Park. I love taking advantage of the warm weather and jogging outside or playing with my two twin boys at the park.
SHAVEWORKS
is a premium women’s shaving line under the Anthony Brands umbrella. The products range from luxurious shaving creams, oils, after shave gels, and lotions and all incorporate a luxe feel and the best ingredients in order to achieve the best shaving experience.

THE ULTIMATE SECRET TO GETTING CLEAR AND BRIGHT SKIN If the arrival of summer has you worried about breakouts from the heat, sweat and sunscreens, you’re in luck. Summer skincare is now a fullblown skin-care affair with a variety of unique and innovative products. We turn to Clearogen’s smart-products which offer deep-cleaning satisfaction and lasting results to prevent blemishes and give way to a healthy glow. Celebrities and Dermatologists turn to Clearogen, a travel friendly 1 month supply acne regimen to clear blemishes on the surface and prevent acne formation underneath the skin. Clearogen is different from all other acne products as it uses botanicals to block the hormone in the oil glands responsible for acne while using gentle ingredients to allow the skin to heal.
Why its Unique:
The Clearogen Foaming Cleanser gently cleanses dirt, oil, makeup, and bacteria that can provoke acne. Clearogen Clarifying Toner uses botanicals and a low percentage of salicylic acid to eliminate pore-clogging impurities while reducing redness and irritation. Botanical extracts support natural cell turnover for smoother skin. Clearogen Acne Lotion uses a low percentage of time released benzoyl peroxide to kill bacteria or you can choose the Sulfur Lotion that works just as well and is effective for sensitive skin too. Both lotions clear blemishes while botanicals reduce DHT (dihydrotestosterone) in the oil gland and regulate oil production, the root cause of acne. Together, this trio will produce a clearer, smoother complexion. 60
HERE ARE OUR FAVORITES: CLEAROGEN ACNE SYSTEM 1 MONTH SUPPLY This travel friendly 1 month supply set is easy to take with you wherever you go so you can keep your skin smooth and acne free.
What it is formulated WITHOUT: - Parabens - Sulfates - Phthalates
What else you need to know:
The products in this set are dermatologist formulated, dermatologist recommended, and clinically proven 95% effective. They are formulated using natural ingredients and powerful botanicals. They were not tested on animals and are cruelty-free.

How to Shop for a Hair Brush Like a Pro with

Mason Pearson 1
Not all brushes are created equal, and moreover, not all brushes were made for your hair type. We asked the pros at Mason Pearson what to look for when shopping for one this Summer to make your hair healthy, lustrous and beautiful. Mason Pearson is a range of grooming tools designed in 1885 for the purpose of distributing the natural oils secreted from the scalp onto the hair. The materials used comprise all natural premium boar bristle, natural, cured rubber used for the pneumatic cushion, cellulose acetate handles, and, in some models, nylon. With the inspiration to provide the ladies of the day an effective, efficient grooming tool for the hair, Mason Pearson created a patented pneumatic cushion (the first of its kind) which conforms to the contours of the user’s head allowing the bristle to penetrate to the scalp this making the act of brushing hair efficient and effective. This Summer, the biggest trend is to achieve the most beautiful healthy looking hair you can have! Mason Pearson is a grooming tool and should only be used as such. It should never be used for styling, especially in conjunction with heat-producing tools.
Tips to choosing the right hairbrush:

3 Must-Haves:
Depending upon your hair type and style, either an all boar bristle or a boar bristle with nylon hair brush for daily at-home grooming, an all nylon Detangler brush for wet hair, a “Pocket� size hair brush (either all boar bristle or mixed boar with nylon) for the purse, a Rake Comb, and a Dressing comb.

June is Beautiful in your Skin Month! Are you doing too much or too little for your skin?
You can start exfoliating once a week and can go up to three times per week depending on your skin sensitivity. Over manipulating the skin is a big NO! Regular use of excessive exfoliation with chemicals or mechanical methods can lead to damage of your skin. If you exfoliate to the point that your skin turns red and flaky, STOP! Be gentle to your skin and treat it with care. A dermatologist can advise you on caring for your particular skin type.
Your diet plays a large role in promoting your skin’s ability to maintain its natural moisture. Include foods that are rich in essential fatty acids which are commonly found in salmon, flax seeds, walnuts, and olive oil. A healthy diet that includes three to five servings a week of these essential fatty acids will aid in reducing red, flaky, dry skin. Include some Chia in your diet. These wonderful seeds contain high levels of Omega-3 which your body needs but it does not produce. Omega-3's help keep skin hydrated. Chia seeds are hydrophilic, absorbing more than 10 times their weight in water.
DR. SCHWEITZER’S QUICK TIPS
FOR HEALTHY AND YOUNGER LOOKING SKIN 1. Wear sunscreen daily. Use a moisturizer for the face that has an SPF of 30 or higher.
C
2. Do not over-wash your face. Excess washing strips your skin of the protective oils that assist in trapping moisture.
elebrity Dermatologist William Schweitzer, M. D. of ProDerm Image Cosmetic Dermatology explains that your skin is the largest organ of your body and perhaps it is the most wonderful as well. Your skin covers your entire body and acts as a shield from the elements. Your wonderful skin bends with ease, warns you when something is too hot or too cold, repairs itself when broken, and plays a huge part in your appearance. Protecting your skin and spending a few minutes a day on your skin care routine can help prevent lasting skin damage and take off years worth of wrinkles and age spots.
Don’t forget your neck, chest, and hands! Chances are you are applying sunscreen to your face on a daily basis but neglecting your neck, chest, and hands. The neck, chest, and hands are also exposed to the sun and at risk of premature aging and skin cancer. Even if your face looks youthful, your neck, chest, and hands could be an age giveaway. A range of issues can affect the appearance of one's neck and hands, depending on age, sun damage, fat atrophy, muscle weakening, skin laxity, and body weight. There are several non-invasive options that can vastly improve your appearance producing younger a looking neck and hands.
PROTECT FROM HARMFUL UV RAYS
OVER EXFOLIATING
Wear sunscreen daily. There are plenty of sunscreens available but the right kind of sunscreen can effectively protect your skin from the damaging UV rays. Choose a sunscreen that has an SPF of 30 or higher and contains titanium dioxide, zinc, mexoryl SX, avobenzone. These ingredients provide excellent sun protection and are not absorbed into the skin. 74
Getting rid of dry, dead skin cells can leave your skin looking smoother and supple. Over exfoliation can cause more harm than good to your skin. Start by testing any new product on a small area of your face and watch to see how your skin reacts. The proper exfoliation for your skin type should leave your skin looking and feeling smoother and refreshed.
3. Stay away from tanning beds or the sun, do a spray tan instead. 4. Moisturize your skin daily, this will make your skin look younger and brighter. HYDRATION Drinking 6-8 glasses of water daily does not necessarily mean that your skin will be automatically hydrated. The water you consume daily first goes through your intestines where it gets absorbed into your bloodstream, is filtered by your kidneys, and is absorbed by cells in your skin and other organs aiding in your bodies hydration. The moisture in your skin can be preserved by avoiding the use of harsh soaps that can strip away natural oils. Instead, use a mild, nonabrasive, alcohol free cleanser. Minimize your exposure to moisture depleting elements such as the sun, harsh winds, low humidity, alcohol, and prolonged baths.
5. Limit the number of products you use on your skin. Using too many anti-aging products can irritate your skin. 6. Be patient and give the product time to work. While some moisturizers can rather quickly plump up fine lines, most products take a few weeks to work.

JESSI MALAY
Tell us about your blog and what makes it so unique and one of the hottest style blogs out there? My blog mywhiteT.com was born out of a desire to merge my worlds of fashion and music. As an artist first, fashion has always played an integral role in my artistry, however, my label at the time, Warner Bros Records, always wanted me to be something I was not… They were always trying to make me more eccentric, more of a Nikki Minaj or Lady Gaga, and that’s just not me. The label would criticize me for not having a “look” but I’m just more attracted to street style and everyday fashion. That’s part of the reason I decided to start the blog..a little bit to show and prove and just put into words what is style to me. I then started to get a lot of engagement from my readers on my hair, makeup, and beauty routines so I decided to start doing tutorials to answer some common questions I was receiving. What I really love about that aspect of the blog is that it’s become more of a forum where my readers and I can engage with each other and share little beauty tips and tricks we discover along the way.
The music section is also very important to me and constantly evolving. I started my just sharing a lot of my own music, original and covers, and music videos I was creating, but now also write reviews and report on other music and artists I feel passionate about. The blog evolves itself naturally, partially just as my own passions and goals develop, and partially by whatever my readers are craving at the moment. I always just try to keep the conversation open. You have some really amazing beauty tutorials on your blog. What are 3 of your holy grail beauty products? Thanks! I swear by Ling’s Vitamin C Serum and Oxygen mask! The combination of the two has left my skin feeling more supple and looking brighter than it ever has! Also still love using St. Ives Apricot Scrub to exfoliate! I’ve been using it since I was a kid and I swear nothing is better! 97
You also are a very talented singer. Is music a direction that you see yourself moving more towards in the future? Thank you so much! Music and performing is my first passion in life and will always be my heart. That’s where I started…I’ve been in performing groups touring the world since I was 8, then signed to Jive Records as a teenager with my girl group No Secrets, then solo to Warner Bros Records right after that. The label system was tough for me and I felt like I never got to do what I really wanted to as an artist. My best friend and I started our production company together a few years back and I’ve been recording and releasing new music independently that I love and have toured with. It’s only in the last 8 months or so that I really took time off from music to further develop the blog, but yes, I’ll always continue making music and hope to be back out on stage performing again soon! Do you write all of your own songs? Where do you draw your inspiration from? I do co-write all of my own music. Inspiration comes from everywhere…life, relationships, desires. Stories you hear about other people’s lives. Sometimes I’ll just be sitting in a nail shop and overhear the girl next to me telling her nail artist about her life and get inspired. Great ideas can spark at any time.
Do you have any style icons or do you admire any one’s style that you tend to incorporate it into your own? I tend to really gravitate to and admire 70s glam! That was my mom’s era…she loved disco and raised me on Donna Summer’s music so I love everything gold, glam, feminine, and sexy! My style icons are Bianca Jagger and Brigitte Bardot who weren’t afraid of a little drama or making heads turn.
What is your most memorable blog outfit you have written about on your site? My favorite outfit I’ve featured on the blog was this long, dark purple, silk shirt dress from Missguided, partially because it was just so reminiscent of that whole 70s glam era I spoke about earlier, and partially because the photos just really turned out stunning. My photographer Gabriel and I shot it in a loft downtown, just at sunset, so the light was coming through the large industrial windows just right, creating all of these really dynamic shadows on the wall and the dress. People loved that look.
How do you create your looks? Are there any key components to creating a complete look? Sometimes it’s difficult creating a complete look or knowing what will be great on yourself. So sometimes, while I’m putting an outfit together, I think of it on a different girl, one of my friends, and what I would tell her to add or change if she was trying it on for me and asking my opinion. I also think complete looks are all in the details, and that doesn’t have to mean a lot of accessories, but just one great one. I like conversation pieces like the Aquazzura Wild Thing sandals when they first came out, or the Celine Trapeze bag that had such a unique shape, unlike any bag we had ever seen before.
What would you say is the biggest challenge about fashion blogging? The greatest challenge about fashion blogging is that the grind never ends. I literally work around the clock. Between my posting schedules across all social media platforms (IG, Twitter, FB, Snapchat, YouTube, Musically), writing and posting almost daily blog articles, attending social events, visiting showrooms, constant emails, creating treatments for new projects with brands, styling, location scouting, shooting, editing, it’s so many jobs in one. What is your favorite type of jewelry to wear? Rings! I’m obsessed with them. I live with a ring on almost every finger, never take them off, and each one has a special memory attached or a special meaning to me. I also really like mixing gold and rose gold and diamonds. Go-to piece of clothing. A great white tee. Hard to believe that with all of the gorgeous pieces I’ve collected over the years, that’s my go-to, but it’s true. I never feel better than when I’m in the perfect white tee and jeans. That’s why I named my blog what I did. What summer activities are you most looking forward to? Can’t wait to just lay on the sand at the beach for a day (with no shooting involved! Ha!) What fashion trends are you looking forward to in summer? Obsessed with bodysuits! A great bodysuit goes well with everything from cutoffs to a suit or maxi skirt! That’s what I’ll be living in all summer. What do you like to do in your spare time? When I have any, I love to go out dancing! I love salsa dancing and reggae music so there are a few little hole in the wall spots here in LA I frequent when I want to just have a drink and really enjoy myself. What is your most used emoji? The monkey with his hands over his eyes is a regular… he’s just good for so many things! Also been frequenting the little spicy chili pepper for all things hot! lol What is currently the most played song in your iTunes? Desperado by RiRi

JILL WALLACE littleblackboots.com
What originally inspired you to get into fashion blogging? I’ve always had a fascination and draw to the fashion world and when I caught on to the world of blogging I was instantly intrigued. At the time I wasn’t around many people who shared my same interest so blogging seemed like the perfect avenue and way to join the conversation and be a part of a community of like-minded people.
What is your latest splurge? I just moved into a new apartment so I’ve been decorating. It’s really the first time I’ve splurged on furniture and household items rather than just inheriting whatever’s been given to me. I just bought this stunning Moroccan wedding blanket that I’m putting in my living room on the wall over my sofa...It’s gorgeous and makes me happy when I look at it. Where would you like to travel to most that you haven’t been to yet? I’ve been dreaming of Cuba ever since my dad took a work trip there when I was a little girl, and came back with all of these stories about the amazing music and salsa dancing in the streets! I just got word that I’ll be traveling there for work next month and couldn’t be more excited! Also dying to visit Tokyo! Just seems like such a different world and culture, and I hear nothing but amazing things about the people. 100
Guilty pleasure? S’mores Poptarts…pretty disgusting I know. What advice do you have for anyone who wants to get into fashion and lifestyle blogging? Don’t be intimidated by the competition. Everyone has something unique and different to offer and as long as you hold true to that, work hard, and stay consistent, you’ll find success. What did you love most about the Modeliste blogger trip? The girlfriend experience! So often on work trips, it’s hard to really enjoy yourself at all because you’re on such a tight schedule, constantly concerned about capturing your every moment and shooting everything. But I thought there was a really nice balance of all of that on this trip and we really got to enjoy ourselves and connect even closer as friends! From going out dancing til 4, to that amazing dinner we had on the sand the last night when we all happened to be dressed in white. I loved the entire experience.
How would you describe your style? Jill: I am definitely a west coast girl through and through. Most of my outfits have an undone, ease about them. As I get older I am drawn to more simplistic, clean lines but I’ll always love a bit of a boho or western flare thrown in somewhere. What are some of your must-have fashion essentials for summer? An arsenal of solid denim is a must-have for me. Most of my days are spent in denim cutoffs or cropped high waisted jeans. Also cannot forget tons of neck scarves and chokers. What do you hope your readers take away from your blog? I hope my readers get a better sense of my personality. It’s difficult to convey much through a couple sentences on Instagram so I hope that through my blog people can really hear my voice. What are some of your favorite places to shop? I am a big Zara fanatic. The addiction is real. I also love Revolve, Free People, and neighborhood vintage shops. What are you currently wearing? I am currently wearing cut cropped Joe’s Jeans, a Mate the Label tee that says “Bahama Mama,” and black leather sliders from Topshop. Also special appearance by a claw clip in my hair. 101
Where would you most like to travel to that you haven’t been yet? One day I will make it to Japan. I also really would love to go to Boracay, Philippines and Bali. What plans do you have for your blog in the next 5 years? In the next 5 years I imagine I will be in a completely different phase in my life so I’m sure my blog will reflect that. I hope to keep growing, sharing, and expanding on my interests and lifestyle beyond just fashion. Stay tuned! What is your favorite hairstyle for when you’re running late? Messy ponytail or just leaving it all down and messy! What is your favorite dessert? Now you’re speaking my language. I have the craziest sweet tooth so it is difficult for me to choose just one but I’d have to go with Sprinkles red velvet cupcakes. What are some of your fashion tips for festivals like Coachella? Always wear comfortable shoes- there’s tons of walking, dancing, and feet trampling involved at festivals. I would also say that if you want to stand out from the crowd, try creating outfits that are unique and original. Shop where most girls aren’t shopping and mix in vintage pieces. Lastly would be that more is more- it’s the best time to fully go for it! Should you wear that 4th necklace?- YES. What is your favorite piece of jewelry you own? I have a gold and jade necklace my dad brought back for me from a trip to Asia. At the time I thought it was hideous but I am thankful my mom hung on to it for me because it is now one of my sacred treasures. Do you have any current sunglasses style obsessions? I currently am a big fan of small, round sunglasses. Also really digging crystal frames and green lenses. What are you most looking forward to in summer? This summer I am looking forward to spending time outdoors with friends i.e. picnics, weekend getaways, and splashing in the water. I also am excited to work on new work projects and life changes! 102
Do you have any favorite handbags at the moment? Saint Laurent monogramme leather bag, Givenchy Antigona bag, Gucci Dionysus, and Chloé Faye!
What was your favorite part of the Modeliste blogger trip? Dinner on the beach at La Palapa. The food and view was beyond amazing!
Who takes your photos for the blog? The majority of my photos are taken by my boyfriend who actually was the main catalyst for me starting my blog. When he’s not available I usually shoot with fellow blogger babes! We’ve all become quite the novice photographers ourselves. What is your most used emoji? Jill: Probably the laughing/crying face because I’m usually laughing/crying. What is your most played song in your iTunes library? Future Islands- Seasons (Waiting On You) What advice would you give someone who wants to get into the world of fashion blogging? My advice would be to not try to replicate what you perceive it is you’re supposed to be like because of what is already out there. Most important thing is to have your own voice and aesthetic and stay true to it. Also that you need to be ready to hustle!
103

TENI PANOSIAN missmaven.com
How did you get the name for the blog? I’m a really indecisive person and I cannot hone in on something to save my life. Like, if I’m deciding on a name or what to wear, but I think I got the name way before I started the blog. It was five years ago, and at the time I was studying brand strategy and marketing and everything in my head was all about how to market a product properly and make a memorable name so that’s how it came about. I was in school on how to market yourself correctly so Miss Maven was memorable. Maven is a buzzword, and it definitely encompassed what I wanted to do. It was just one of those moments where I actually didn’t go through dozens and dozens of names. I just found it, and I was done. How would you describe your blog? My blog started out as strictly beauty but with the rise of social media and my presence on YouTube, I think that people really want to see more diverse content- like more of my life. At first, I really wanted to make it into an online magazine, very professional, but more and more I saw that people wanted to see my personal style and my personal taste, so it kind of transitioned into something a little more casual. For instance, when I hosted dinner for my friend and then showed how I did the tablescape, or what I wore to an event, my fitness routine and what I’m listening to at the gym. It’s more of a peek into my life now and not just strictly beauty.
106
Tell us about your YouTube channel. Same thing, it started out as beauty only, which I think got me my following, but I think as people evolve they want to see change too because they’re growing up with you. Especially with Instagram, me posting photos of what I’m wearing or people asking me how I decorated my house. Fashion, specifically was one thing I was particularly careful about, because I didn’t want to be that “beauty girl” who didn’t know anything about fashion. It’s such a specific thing, and there are so many people out there who are so good at it and committed to being a fashion expert, so I sort of just positioned myself as ‘This is my personal style, this isn’t the right way, this isn’t the wrong way, this is just what I’m wearing.” I think the response is getting more favorites than my beauty stuff. So, I like how much more diversified the content is now. Do you have a favorite tutorial? I think my Turks and Caicos travel diary is my favorite. I love doing travel diaries. They are so much more dynamic than just a typical to tutorial. It’s kind of like a motion picture where you really get to get creative with the editing and tell a story as opposed to here’s an instructional video from A-Z which can become a little stale, but the Turks and Caicos was definitely my favorite.
What is your most asked about beauty question? It’s brows 100%. Brows are one of the things I get asked about the most. Also hair- mine used to be Ombre so it was really dry and damaged but now it’s my natural color again and it’s getting to be shiny again. So people are asking about that and how I get that. What would you say makes your blogging style so unique? In the blogging world, it’s kind of easy to fall in line with what everyone is doing just because there is a style. I just try not to get sucked into that. I really try not to read other blogs or look at other accounts because I don’t want to ever think that subconsciously I am copying someone else’s style. So I just kind of let whatever inspiration I have dictate what content I put out there. Whether it looks like blogger content or not, I just go with it. Because otherwise you end up in a sea of the same. How do you get the inspiration for your posts? I just think about the questions people ask me and what I think is useful for people. Before, it was a lot of product reviews, but I didn’t really find that helpful for anyone so then it’s like “what is it that 107
Do you have any tips for capturing snap? Snapchat is interesting because I think that the funny moments of your day, that’s what people want to see. Like if something random happens, like my dog staring at the pool swan and barking at it because it’s moving, that’s like a moment. That’s just one of those things that you’re by yourself at your house and you wish you could laugh with someone about it, but you’re alone so you’re like “I’m just going to snap this.” It’s just those moments that people wouldn’t otherwise see. It’s your raw life. How would you describe your personal style? My personal style is quite simple. You won’t see me accessorizing a lot. If I’m going to make a statement, it’s still going to be with something understated- simple but bold.
we do day-to-day that’s going to benefit someone.” Someone who an on-the-go mom who only has 5 minutes to get ready in the morning. It’s kind of necessity that drives my content. How do you interact and engage with your audience? I reply to comments all the time. If you’re going to take the time to watch my comment or read it, I’m going to write back. My audience knows I definitely go back and read everything. And I do giveaways so I go back and say “thank you” to them and obviously I wish I could give something to everyone but I can’t so it’s just my way of showing appreciation to them. If they weren’t reading and watching, I wouldn’t have a career.
108
What are the top 3 things on your bucket list? Teni: I would like to go to India. I had a friend go there and she said it’s like an life altering experience but you kind of have to be emotionally ready to go. I want to go and do some work there and not just vacation. I think it’s important to go to other parts of the world and see how people are living. But in general, I just want to travel more. I want to save all the dogs in the world. Using my influence to raise awareness about spaying and neutering. I want to go to Capitol Hill and change some laws that have to do with animals because they’re just not strict enough. I guess the last one is get married because that scares me a lot so that would be like getting over a fear and accomplishing something cool. What are your beauty product obsessions? I need a good eyebrow pencil. Sometimes I don't really put anything on my face and it will just be my eyebrows really polished up. The one that I’m using right now is by Hourglass, it’s called the Arch Brow sculpting pencil and I really like it. I just like a nice light-wear foundation but not foundation-more like a BB Cream. One that I like right now is the Nars Velvet Matte Skin Tint. It’s so good, very lightweight but it gives you a good amount of coverage. Also, there’s a lip oil by Hourglass that I wore this morning and it looks like a gloss but it’s a lip treatment. Also there’s a product my Jouer it’s called the Luminizing Highlighter. I like liquid highlighters more than powders because they blend in with your skin more and look more natural.
What was your latest beauty splurge? It was a highlight compact by Tom Ford. The color is called Moonlight. You swirl a darker color and lighter color and it’s like glowy veil over your skin. What’s one of your biggest beauty tips? I think cleansing is so important because we all want good skin and the first step is keeping it clean. I know a lot of people just use wipes to take off their makeup at the end of the night and they call it, but that’s not enough. So, I would say take a few extra minutes to take all that extra makeup off. There’s one product by Skinmedica that’s very good and gentle. I think it’s called the gentle cleanser. What are you looking forward to most in Summer? I’m looking forward to just being in a bathing suit and going to the beach. It’s so much more about layback style than the rest of the year. Do you have any funny beauty moments that you look back on and think what was I thinking? There was a period of time where I really laid on the blush and did full strip lashes and a full smoky eye, and it was just so much. Now I’m just so easy. What do you always carry in your handbag? I have a hand sanitizer in my bag. A lip balm, I love the one by Jack Black. It’s their lemon Shea Butter lip balm. And sunglasses. I really like Dida. I have so many of their sunglasses. What has been your favorite travel destination? Turks and Caicos. It was definitely experience there. The people were really nice, I learned a lot there. How do you keep in shape? I have a trainer that I see two or three times a week. She’s a power lifter, so I need her because I can’t weight lift by myself and you can really hurt yourself if you weight lift without a professional. It’s funny because I just did a hair tutorial the other day and people noticed my toned arms. I hate cardio but I love weight lifting.
What’s next for you? I think a little bit of a shift in content. I would really like to go into more narrative style work just more meaningful content that will be more motivating for people as opposed to just giving beauty tips and making people feel beautiful. Just give people the ammo to do what they love to do. What has been your favorite part of this trip in Puerto Vallarta? I love just how nice everybody is here. In the entire community I haven’t met one person who has been rude or mean. I think the culture here is very welcoming, just kind and laid back. No one is high strung and everyone’s just having a good time. If you could say anything to your fans what would you say? Thank you! It’s going to be a ride from here so stay 109 tuned.

In fact, Turkish Airlines was named the 2015 “Best Airline in Europe” for the fifth year in a row by Skytrax, which is recognized by the aviation industry for its global ranking system of customer satisfaction with airlines’ service and performance worldwide.
ccording to a 2015 Skytrax survey, Turkish Airlines was chosen as "Europe's Best Airline" for the fifth and "Best Airline in Southern Europe" for the seventh consecutive time. Having won in 2010 the world's "Best Economy Catering Service", in 2013 the world's "Best Business Catering Service", and in 2014 "Best Business Catering Service" awards, Turkish Airlines was this year awarded the world's "Best Business Class Lounge Dining" and "Best Business Airline Lounge" prizes in the Skytrax survey. Currently with *8 US gateways, Turkish Airlines offers 63 flights per week, serving some 5,000 customers. In May 2016, daily flights from Atlanta will begin.

Ersen Engin knew when he was still in primary school in Canakkale, on the West Coast of Turkey, that he wanted to be part of the aviation industry-- a pilot he thought at the time – the dream of many little boys. Mr. Engin realized that dream, but on the management side. He has spent 18 years with Turkish Airlines, working his way up from a part-time position while still at Marmara University to his new post of General Manager of the Los Angeles office, where he arrived on September 1 with his wife and two small boys.

He has some aggressive growth plans, and he sees significant opportunities for Turkish Airlines. A key strategy is to increase the number of flights from Los Angeles to Istanbul (and beyond) from the current daily single flight to 11 per week. “We offer one-stop service to many destinations that no single carrier can get to. Increasingly as companies look to emerging markets for opportunities to expand or establish businesses, this level of connectivity to the rest of the world is extremely important,” he comments.
Turkish Airlines Business Class is the equal of many airlines’ First Class, and they do not offer First Class. Los Angeles is a strong market for Business Class, and Mr. Engin would like to enhance the travel experience “so our customers can't wait for their next opportunity to travel with us and see the world and experience diversity and new cultures.” They recently increased the number of Business Class seats on flights from LAX from 28 to 49 per flight. Turkish airlines also continues its award-winning Flying Chef program in business class. The airline was again given the accolade of World’s Best Business Class Dining in 2014.
