The Interview —

Alyssa Coscarelli, Fashion Market Writer at Refinery29

I bought a lot of impractical, uncomfortable shoes in college. No more of that.

What I love most about my work is my entire team—the amazing people I get to work alongside every day.

I would tell myself that it's okay if you don't know exactly what you want to do yet. Just work hard and explore your passions and the right things will fall into place.

I tried a sample of pumpkin-pecan bread at Williams Sonoma and ended up buying the mix and making it for myself at home the next day. Nothing says fall like the smell of pumpkin bread filling your apartment. 

I love eating Life cereal with almond milk late at night.

I love Dermalogica Microfoliant. It's a super effective and gentle exfoliator. I'm addicted.

The last book I finished was When Breath Becomes Air. I ugly-cried on an airplane. It was beautifully done and such a heart-wrenching story.

Running late to work.

Ever since I was little, I could inflate my stomach to the point where it looks like I'm pregnant. It's pretty weird.

I really wish I could skateboard. I've tried teaching myself but didn't make much progress. Hmph.
