What do you guys think of Sienna Miller’s style?

Just wanted to let you all know that I’ll be gone for a week. I’m heading to Dominican Republic with my family and friends to celebrate our love with Alex! Yes, we are getting married! I’m super excited, because this is really a dream come true for us. Words cannot even describe the love and joy I”m feeling right now!

I promise to compensate with plenty of photos and maybe even a video from our trip once we get back. So stay tuned and have a fantastic week!

Much Love,

xoxo

Mimi

Are you guys excited for the SATC2 movie?

In the meantime enjoy the photos below…:)

Catherine Baba is a woman of striking and captivating style. It’s guaranteed that if you see her strolling down the street you can’t help but stare at her, because she looks like she is from a different world or at least from a different era- 30’s glamour, 20’s pencil eyebrows, cocktail jewelery, turbans in vibrant colors, complimented by daring and bold outfits.

Catherine Baba is a freelance stylist who was born in Australia and has moved to Paris more than 15 years ago .  Baba has extensively worked for many fashion houses including Chanel, Givenchy, Ungaro , as well as styled for magazines such as DAZED & CONFUSED, VOGUE and VANITY FAIR.   Catherine is no stranger to making an entrance or a statement in all that she does, even bicycling her way around Paris in her gorgeous killer YSL heels. Like it or not, Catherine is told to be one of the most stylish woman in Paris- now that’s a title!

“Know who you are, be prepared for everything, drink every experience to its extent and expand!  It can be a bumpy ride, trust me but it’s worth it DARLING.” - Catherine Baba

I get asked quite frequently personal questions by La Mimi readers wanting to know more about me, what I do for a living and whether writing for La Mimi is my full time career. So, I decided to dedicate a short post to tell you a little bit more about myself A.K.A the person behind La Mimi.

Why did you start La Mimi?

I’ve founded the La Mimi blog about two years ago, as an attempt to gather all my fashion and beauty research, knowledge and inspirations in one place and share it with like minded people. It’s not my full time career, however writing and researching material for the articles I regularly post on La Mimi helps me with my career as I always have to stay updated with not only current fashion trends shown off by the greatest designers but also getting inspired by countless number of truly talented fashion bloggers.

What do you do for a living?

I’m a part-time fashion stylist, as well as full-time personal stylist in Toronto, Canada. That means I work with personal clients one-on-one, styling them for special events or for every day life. As a fashion stylist, I work with companies and provide wardrobe styling services on shoots for print ads, commercials, as well as fashion shoots for various companies and publications. Some of the companies I’ve worked with in the past include TD Canada Trust, Harlequin Publishing, The Biz Media and Ontario Tourism. I love what I do because it allows me to constantly travel, meet new people and be around clothes all day.

Who are your personal clients?

Well…I can’t tell you specifically who they are due to privacy issues, but if you are curious to know what kind of people hire a personal stylist then I can definitely share. Most of my clients are high-profile individuals who are very successful in many aspects of their life. They all come from different career fields, some are executives, business owners, others are actors or just social housewives.

There are a few things though that all my clients have in common and that’s the need to always project an impeccable image, as well as try to save as much time as possible. How do I help them?  I go personal shopping with or for my clients and their family. Style my clients for special occasions and red carpet events, and help them pack for regular business trips, as well as vacations. I am passionate about people and clothes, so my career allows me to combine both of my passions. I’m extremely grateful to be doing something that I truly enjoy and it hardly ever feels like work for me, because my clients become my friends and I genuine love helping them. And that is the best part!

If you’d like to find out more about what I do, feel free to visit my website personal stylist website- La Mimi.

I hope that answered all your burning questions. Feel free to ask me anything else you would like to know.

Some of you might already be familiar with the Russian It girl – Miroslava Duma. If not, I’m more than happy to introduce you to my style crush- Meet Miroslava Duma!

Mira ( which is her nickname) is  a former editor of  Harper’s Bazaar ( Russia). Now she contributes to several publications such as Glamour Russia, OK Magazine (Russia), and Tatler Magazine. Miroslava comes from a wealthy Russian family, which gives her an opportunity to be young humanitarian who regularly organizes charity events and contributes her time to charitable foundations. I’ve read many of her interview in Russian and she seems like a very sweet, positive and exciting person.

Even though I admire a lot of people’s style, it’s hardly ever that I would actually wear what they are wearing, but Miroslava Duma is a whole different case.  Her style is so chic, yet effortless and always different and fun. A mixture of sophistication, creativity and femininity that I personally try to always incorporate in my style.
