About Alexis Dawes, Editor of Indie Lust

I’m an author by trade.

A New Yorker by birthright.

A nomad by choice.

A tattoo lover because I have them.

A single mom 24 hours a day. (Happily, might I add.)

And a shit talker after a few martini’s.

I don’t like to drive. I’m not really crazy about cooking. And I can’t stand khaki on top of khaki on top of khaki, a la Gap style.

My Style…

I am part b-girl, part coquette, part city chic.

I may buy a few trendy pieces each season. But I don’t consider myself to be a hardcore trend follower.

I appreciate unique style more than I like a labels. Unique style makes the Gucci girls secretly spy you from the corners of their eyes. I believe a single piece of your outfit can make a huge statement.

I think jewelry is underrated, and skinny models are overrated.

Ballet flats aren’t a trend for me. They’re a way of life. And believe me when I say they can be just as mantrapper-ish as a pair of heels.

This year I’m making a transition to wearing just skirts and dresses - no pants allowed. Skirts are sexier… more womanly and expressive. I’m partial to fuller, knee length A-line skirts, or knee length pencil skirts. I do occasionally go longer and shorter.

I’m all about the neck candy. A wonderful habit I blame on the Parisians, who probably teach scarf tying in elementary school.

My Size…

Pants 4-6
Tops/Jackets 8 / Medium
Shoes 8 / 39
