STYLIST SPOTLIGHT

KIM APODACA

@Kim.apodaca.stylist

Kim’s approach is holistic. She works from the inside-out at first, by understanding each client’s lifestyles, needs and goals.  Accentuating the positives and deleting the negatives.  Kim then puts together a personal style and unique image that will help you from the outside-in.

Fall trend this season is all about elevating your staples. Update your jeans, grab a statement sweater, and add a killer blazer. Parisian chic is always my go-to, with a touch of L.A. drama.
