I don't do black tie a ton, but when I do, I don't f--- around. This Sophie Theallet. Don't know who she is. Check out her bio (source Wikipedia): 

Born in 1964 in Bagnères-de-Bigorre, France,[1] Sophie Theallet is a French fashion designer[2] whose clients include First Lady Michelle Obama. (And me!) 

At 18, Sophie Theallet moved to Paris to attend the fashion design school, Studio Berçot. She graduated early after winning France's “National Young Design Award” and was hired by Jean-Paul Gaultier.

Theallet then joined Azzedine Alaïa for a decade before moving to New York. She now lives in Brooklyn Heights

After moving to New York City, Sophie continued to work with Alaïa on a part-time basis, while also freelancing for other fashion labels.

In 2007, she launched her own label, Sophie Theallet. In 2009, she won the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award.

 

Vogue India's Most Stylish Indian Women in the World

When Vogue India calls to put you in the pages of their magazine, you answer and say yes to whatever they want to do. For their annual "Most Stylish Indian Women in the World," Phil Oh and I headed to the west side of Manhattan to walk and talk in the rain. Nothing staged or over dramatic, just a quick walk to my office with one of the best photographers in the country!

Hitha Herzog in a floral purple dress and patent Louboutins. Copy reads: Hitha Prabhakar, 34, New York Retail Analyst and On-air Correspondent. New Mexico and New York are a long way from each other, both physically and sartorially. The daughter of doctors, Prabhakar grew up in the open spaces of the desert and now lives in New York's concrete jungle, but it's her Indian roots that have influenced her look. "I'm not afraid of jewel tones and bold prints, and on-air I always wear something vibrant. I'm also obsessed with sparkly jewelry from Tom Binns Design and Iosselliari." The dichotomy between her childhood home and her new city runs through her wardrobe—"I'm like 70s housewife-meets-punk-rocker; think Sid and Nancy (1986) meets The Love Story (1970) meets The Graduate (1967)." Shopping haunts: The Brooklyn Flea Market and the Meatpacking District.

#TBT Germany, 2014

A week after I got married in October, I went to Germany to tape a show called Hiring America. This show focusing on getting Veterans jobs as they transition out of the military. I learned a lot that week- mostly how much the amazing women and men who serve our country sacrifice for our freedom. I saw it first hand and was in awe.

Negotiating advice: My piece in TotalJobs.com

News flash: If you are waiting around for your boss to up your salary 50-70% because she/he thinks you deserve it, think again. Take your life and career into your own hands and learn how to negotiate! Too freaked out to have the initial conversation? Confused on what to say? Check this piece I wrote for www.totaljobs.com. Bottom line- don't be a part of the 42% who never negotiate (source: salary.com). Ask and you shall receive. And if you don't, know your self worth + be certain you will get something else that will meet your career criteria.
