Model of the Month: Jordan Kimberly Popovich
Why modeling?
I chose modeling because when i was younger, Hannah Montana was my idol. Yes, Miley Cyrus too, but I really loved the role of Hannah on the Disney show! I wanted to be like her of course and because I do not have a voice like her, I still wanted to break into the industry and modeling came very natural to me. I stuck with it because I wanted to create a name for myself and then once my name is well known and respected, I can partake in what I believe in and help others with a solid, trustworthy voice that people will listen to! I am trying to change the industry a little at a time!What inspires you?
I am inspired by public figures, whether political or entertainment, that choose to use their power to change how the government is taking over our country.What is your personal style?
My personal style is actually very tomboy meets hippie. On the regular days I do not work, I don't even wear makeup! I also don't do anything to my hair. I just let it dry naturally so it's really healthy. I love LuLu Lemon pants of any kind - I have a minor addiction!What genre does your work focus on?
My work right now is focusing on my personal portfolio. So if there is something I don't have, I'm working to set up shoots so I can get every angle of every genre so that in the future I can more traveling!What is your most embarrassing moment professionally?
My most embarrassing moment as a professional working in this industry is when I was doing a shoot in crazy cigarette heels and doing a kick so we could see the bottom of the shoe in the face frame. I completely flew into the air and fell back hard on concrete - I was laughing and crying at the same time and my elbow was almost immediately swollen. The photographer had to photoshop it down in some of the pics!

Wardrobe Stylist of the Month: John Galang
Who is your favorite wardrobe stylist of all time?
Hands down, Patricia Fields. Her mixing of textures, patterns, colors and fabrication creates the drama and excitement to her craft. The talent she brought on the set of The Devil Wears Prada, Sex and the City, and Confessions of a Shopaholic are not only inspiring to the fashion business but also to the mass.Why wardrobe stylist?
I eat fashion and I inhale fashion. Yes, fashion is my drug. It sounds cliche but every 5 minutes I think about fashion and it does not leave my system. It gives me a way to express myself and be creative in my aesthetics.What inspires you?
People, attitude, media, drama, culture and art inspire me the most.What genre does your work focus on?
I love working on editorial shoots, coming up with an interesting concept and collaborating with a very strong team. When I style, I tend to tell a story, study the demographic and ask myself questions. Who is this person? Where is this person going? Why is this person in these clothes?What is your personal style?
Easy, comfortable, attractive and with a punch of drama is my personal style. I always ask myself "Do I want to blend in or stand out?".

It usually depends on the assignment and type of shoot.
