Beads are already this girl’s best friend, but we think Dominique and Nicole Richie would make a great pair. (Hey, Nicole -- need a replacement for ex-BFF Paris?)

CELEB STYLE INSPIRATION: Nicole Richie.

FAVE ITEM IN THE ALLOY SHOP: Beaded Drawstring Mini.

MOST STYLISH SONG: “Lady (Hear me tonight)” by Modjo. It has such a great techno beat, and I never get tired of hearing it.

PERSONAL FASHION PHILOSOPHY: You’ll never get complimented if you just wear jeans and a shirt. Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize.

QUOTE TO LIVE BY: “Strive to do your best, but do your best to strive.”

MUST-HAVE BEAUTY ITEM: Eyeliner, mascara, and lip gloss.

MUST-HAVE FASHION ITEM: I own ballet flats in all colors. I think everyone should have a pair.

AMOUNT OF TIME IT TAKES TO GET READY: About half an hour to an hour.
