mj03090 asked: Hello!

eft47 asked: Eva! Longtime follower, first time asker! (Is that a word? Probably not. WHATEVER.) Anyways, I'm sure you've already been asked this, buuut ... what do you wear to travel? I'm going on a (not SUPER long, but still long enough) air-flight next week, and I'd love to get your advice on a stylish-yet-practical outfit! (Keep in mind I'm flying from warm weather to cold...

mindievo asked: Hi Eva, you give the most honest and genuine advice for young girls (or boys) out there. I was just wondering, when you interview possible candidates, what is that you look for? Originality? Personality? Skills? Experiences? Ambition? What is the key thing that distinguishes one person from another?
Now that Cinderella’s fairy godmother no longer exists, the couturier must be...

thepinkuniveristy asked: Hi Eva, I have super dry (non-acne prone) skin. I usually use baby-moisturizer on my face (Yes I know, GASP!) I am in desperate need of an amazingly thick face moisturizer. What are some of your drugstore and higher-ish end products that can help make me super moisturized?

bemusingsofeasilyamused asked: So I tried the Carrie Bradshaw approach to NYC last year, I was there for a week and thought I would find an apartment. With no such luck, I came back to California and unpacked all my boxes again. I am again "homesick" for New York so I am looking for some advice as how to get a job before actually picking up and moving. Also, how to get your resume seen without a lot of experience?? I...

peacel0vefashi0n asked: Hi there! I'm a sophomore in college,&my dream is to work in the fashion industry, specifically the business side. Every time I'm in one of my fashion classes&the more I learn, the more excited&intrigued I am. But my problem is sometimes I feel as if I'm not confident enough to be in this industry, or if I have what it takes to be in it. This past summer I interned at a...
a-gressr asked: Hey Eva, I'm on the East coast for school and as a West coast girl, I'm clueless about fall/winter gear. I'm looking for some boots to wear that will handle the cold weather and be comfortable for walking to classes. 99% of the girls start wearing knee high boots come fall but I dress more androgynously and think ankle boots would work better for me/boot diversity (though, I do love...

astoldbyjalissa asked: I recently received an opportunity to meet with someone in the fashion industry. Sadly, it did not go as planned. Upon getting there, I was given the advice to lose 20-25 pounds (I am 5 feet tall and weigh anywhere from 95-100 pounds) and was informed that even so, I may not find success because I am short, have a slightly curvy build, and am not conventionally pretty. Does everyone in the...
