Description

Today we are joined by Eva Chen! Eva probably needs no introduction but she’s the Director of Fashion Partnerships at Instagram. What you may not know is that she’s also a children’s book author and the self proclaimed “Walter White of vintage Chanel jackets!” Eva talks about everything from changing careers, meeting your heroes IRL (Oprah!!), getting a book deal, and following your dreams. She also gets vulnerable, talking about what it’s like to worry that people won’t like her work. We round out the episode with all of Eva’s favorites: up & coming fashion designers, beauty obsessions (a very fancy face roller), a fancy hotel, and of course — YA novels.   Designers Mentioned:  Pyer Moss Rejina Pyo Ganni 16 Arlington Lesyanebo Racil Contro collection Net-a-Porter Premier   Products Mentioned: Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm Augustinus Bader Refa Face Roller Joanna Czech Facials Elaine Huntzinger  Facial   Obsessions: Glow Bar  Horoscope necklaces at Candyshop Vintage   Instagram Obsessions: @Benlenovitz @rachelista   For more Eva on Instagram: @evachen212 @tbannister    Books Mentioned: Get a life Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert We Came Here to Forget by Andrea Dunlop (November Book Club Pick!)
