Anna Raben, visual merchandiser, spotted by the Water Tower going back home from work.
How do you create interesting outfits for your windows? Even though some people think it’s old, I like to do a lot of color blocking.
What’s your favorite color combination?
Right now I’m really into pastels; a mint, pistachio green mixed with orange or red.
What makes a person stand out for you?
The confidence that they can really pull off what they’re wearing, never feeling overdressed or underdressed. They just don’t really care.
Where did you get this gorgeous dress?
I was going through my grandma’s closet once and I came upon this and a few other great things. She also gave me this fabulous beaded purse collection that dates back to the 1800s. I have a lot of great stuff from grandma!
