Stay Focused & Authentic in Business When Your Needs Are Ever Expanding
“I like to learn by failure.” - Alex Evjen
Talking with Alex from AVE Styles was like having a dream conversation for me. This mom of 2 is so laid back and successful doing the work she dreams of like collaborating with iconic companies Neiman Marcus, Madewell and even Coca-Cola. She is fashion stylist turned lifestyle blogger and the rare Official Pinterest Influencer. Her style is not only top notch but you can tell her attitude is just same. I had so much fun in this conversation and laughed along the way!
We talked about lots to things! Alex shares
