What’s your favorite Teen Vogue moment? Hanging out on a video shoot set with "Girls" and "Orange is the New Black" costume designer Jenn Rogien.Share a funny anecdote from a first job or internship. My first job in New York was for a tiny (as in two employees, the owner and me) PR agency. My boss sent me to the Betsey Johnson fashion show on my own — zero directions or how the whole NYFW thing works — to check on our client, one of the backstage sponsors. I had no invitation, no credentials, name not on "the list," knew no one. I don't know how it happened, but I somehow managed to finagle my way backstage — mostly motivated by the fear that I'd get fired. I don't know if that's funny, but it still sticks out in my memory.What beauty product are you loving right now?
My Bite Beauty High Pigment Pencil in Framboise. It will not come off.What fashion item seems to always be on your shopping list?
Black ankle booties. I probably have 20 at least. But they're all different.What’s your go-to karaoke song?
Boyband tunes are always a crowd-pleaser. The Backstreet Boys classic "I Want It That Way" always gets people singing along, even if they won't admit that they will.What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
From my mom. When you're on vacation and you see something you want, buy it right away because you probably won't come across it again. (It's TRUE. And I'm sure she regretted that piece of advice.)What’s your favorite movie quote?
Does the entire script of Clueless count?
