Rachel: If you could describe your ensemble or overall personal style in three words, what would they be?
Bathilda: Hipster edgy chic
R: Where do you draw inspiration for your wardrobe?
B: Instagram, Pinterest, friends who are stylists-I am a minimalist so I like to dress the way I design-clean, basic, muted tones. If I see a piece I like, I like to mix and match it depending on how dress or tomboyish I want to go. Sometimes I like to be girly and show off some legs.
R: What is the item with the most obscure origin today's ensemble?
B: My Sam Edelman boots were unintentionally made with real calf hair. Oops. I thought it was fake!
R: Do you have a favorite piece in your wardrobe?
B: My favorite piece is my leather leggings. They are great for dressing up or dressing down. Really adds that piece of edge and cool to anything else I throw on.
R: What is your favorite place in Milwaukee to shop and why?
B: Sparrow Collective-they offer some of the best local crafts, art and jewelry. I love supporting local businesses and I appreciate the variety and talent offered at a good price.

R: Any advice for people trying to find their own style?
B: Have closet staples and essentials-like a white, comfy T-shirt or a pair of your favorite jeans. Wear what you're comfortable in; confidence is the best thing you can accessorize with.
