Michele Gowan. My Grammy. The dazzling woman to whom I owe my sense of fashion. Michele wears bold outfits that make her hard to miss in a crowd; her go-to look is big sunglasses and red lipstick. She is the queen of accessorizing, and never leaves the house without statement jewelry and a pair of shoes from her extensive collection of high-heels. Beyond her spectacular style is a strong, confident, and loving human being. She has taught me to be bold with my decisions and comfortable in my own shoes.

For all these reasons, I am honored to share the name, Michele.
