    I've had the opportunity to get to know a woman who was a personal stylist at J.Crew in New York. Her name is Marina Dobreva and she is AMAZING. One of the best I've seen. (See some of her fashion philosophies here.) Have you guys ever used one of those in-house stylists? I usually have just ignored those services, but one day I got some help from Marina and realized that it really was a great resource. And then later, Marina actually taught a class I organized for a group of women in Brooklyn … so fun! Here are 7 helpful fashion tips that Marina taught in that class. - By Mara Kofoed
