Lots of great people are contributing to this blog. The upcoming weeks, we'll present them all for you, starting with Dennise Pineda.
Dennise is 24 years old and from Chicago, Illinois. And we love her.
What's your fashion experience? - My fashion experience or rather inspiration stems from my sister who is an aspiring fashion designer. I've never met a person who can put together an outfit quite like she can.
When did you first become interested in fashion? - I've been interested in fashion since high school. My family didn't have much money growing up so I had to be creative when it came to outfits, thus came my love for thrift stores and consignment shops.
Why is fashion important? - Fashion is important because it is an expression of our creativity. Just like fingerprints, no two people have the exact same style or taste in fashion.
Today's best dressed male and female? - Zooey Deschanel (actress) and Marc Jacobs (designer).
... and worst dressed? - Honestly, I'd like to think that I'm open minded and if I don't like someone's fashion sense it is because it is not my taste not because it is bad.
What do you think of Barak Obama's style? - Forgive me for being biased, but Barack Obama does currently reside and has roots in Chicago so I think he is an exremely sharp dresser.
What's the worst rumour you've heard about yourself or your blog? - I've never heard a rumor about my blog but I remember in high school people saying that I was a teacher's pet behind my back.
Why should people read your blog posts? - People should read my blog posts because I write for others. Don't get me wrong, I put my style and opinion in my posts but at the end of the day, I want at least one person to say, hey, I learned something from that post.
Why should people join Fashhh? - People should join Fashhh because it is a great way to be in touch with fashion all over the world. Everything right now is about being global from marketing to journalism to photography, etc. The fashion world has to keep up.
The most exciting brand and designer at the moment? - This was a tough choice but the brand and designer that has been exciting me as of late is MINE by Katherine Pont.
