"My name is Jacyn Siebert and I am Sugar Lips Lifestyle Tips. I am based out of the San Francisco Bay Area and have been blogging for almost two years. I am a mentor for mainly women but have had a few guys along the way as well. I am a member of SFFAMA and participate in various fashion events in SF throughout the year. I am currently coordinating with a local magazine to create a runway show in celebration of FNO/NY Fashion Week."
TSF: What was your first fashion related job?
JS: I worked at the local mall at a store called Chess King. I was a model at 7 for my mom's clothing and did a mall runway show when I was a teenager. The job above was a men's clothing store specializing in jeans and casual wear.
TSF: How long have you been interested in fashion?
JS: Since I was very little I loved tights, patent leather shoes and dresses. I was also a huge fan of rompers. I used to sit and watch my mother get dressed up for a night out, then sneak into her bedroom after she left and played with her makeup, her fur coat and high heels. I couldn't quite reach her jewelry though.
TFS: Is there a certain type of makeup that wear?
JS: Bare Essentials powder, Sephora or Bobbi Brown blush, MAC or Beauticontrol eye shadow, and Smashbox lipgloss.
TSF: What would you say is a great way to start your dream career?
JS: Follow your heart. Every minute counts so use them wisely and every oppportunity is an oppportunity to learn. Baby steps in the right direction is far better than miles in the wrong one.
TSF: Do you have a favorite designer?
JS: Valentino. He is elegant, timeless and brilliant.
TSF: How would you define your style?
JS: A little tomboy meets glam, yet classic and timeless.
TSF: Are you big on labels?
JS: No labels limit your options. Go for style.
TSF: Who would you say is a fashion icon?
JS: Coco Chanel, of course.
TSF: Are there any celebs that you pull inspiration from?
JS: Kate Hudson, Gisele Bundchën and Demi Moore.
TSF: Do you have any fashion pet peeves?
JS: Trying too hard. A look has to be effortless. That doesn't mean that it shouldn't be well rehearsed. Practice being comfortable in your skin and your true colors will shine.
TSF: Do you like online shopping or do you prefer in store?
JS: I hate shopping. I love new stuff, hate shopping for it. I would love a personal stylist so by default I shop online quite a bit.
TSF: Do you have a favorite magazine?
JS: Vogue. Its the fashion bible.
