Girl Crush of the Week - Hillary Kelly


Introducing...Miss Hillary Kelly!
Meet Hillary Kelly, our girl crush of the week! Hillary is a fellow Miami Alum, and was also a Delta Gamma with Allison at Miami. Although she is two years younger, that didn't stop Allison and Hillary from becoming fast friends and tearing it up at sorority functions and house parties alike.

Fast forward to current day, where Hillary is living in Cincinnati (her hometown), and with her fiance Jordan, and recently started the adorable tumblr Make Statements. She is so fun to be around, and her sunny personality definitely comes through in her style aesthetic. Have fun getting to know Miss Hillary! We're sure you'll love her as much as we do!
  • Style icons? Olivia Palermo, Blake Lively.
  • Design philosophy? Neutral palette with a big statement piece!  
 
  • Favorite book of all time? The Great Gatsby 
  • Best advice you ever received? "Shake hard, and look 'em in the eyes" - Dad.  Ever since I can remember, my Dad has told me to be a confident woman.  Being taken seriously at work is important to me and my handshake shows that I mean business!
  • Favorite stores?  Absolutely love Zara, J. Crew (some might call it an addiction), Khakis (Cincinnati boutique), Tory Burch, Nordstrom
  • Dream place to live?  Wherever Jordan & the 5.5's are living.

  • The one product you're obsessed with right now? Clarisonic.  I finally pulled the trigger after seeing Julia feature it on Tartan & Sequins and couldn't be happier! 
  • Biggest indulgence? Skyline, because I eat it weekly.  
  • Girl crush? Rachel McAdams
  • Favorite song(s)?  I Wanna Dance with Somebody and PYT.  I would be completely fine if both of these songs played on repeat at my reception.  That's alarming.

  1. Aww I just love her style. She pulls off the bold necklace flawlessly. Going to have to keep tabs on her via her tumblr. And I have to say, her favorite drink was mine until I became a martini girl. Delish.
