Michelle Henry, graphic designer
Michelle, who works at marketing and advertising firm Stephenson and Taylor, is a lover of the classics, from her vintage Chanel earrings to her J.Crew booties.
Since you’re in the design business, does that mean that you are a pretty visual person?
I think with design or fashion, I analyze an entire piece by its shape, color, and texture. I look at the individual components and how
they work together.
How would you describe your style?
Modern vintage preppy.
Are those Chanel earrings?
Yeah, they are.
Where did you find them?
Ebay. And every city I’m in, I go antiquing. I love the Maumee Antique Mall; I got this fur muff from there for $30. I’m an investment shopper — I buy things I know
are going to sustain themselves through the years, rather than a season’s trend.
You’re very pulled together. Do you ever have a lazy sweatpants moment?
Leaving yoga, maybe! [Laughs] I do like to put an effort into how I look on a daily basis. You feel better if you’re put together.
