D'LUXE Magazine: Assignment 1

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to meet Joshua Kaufman, the Editor-in-Chief of D'LUXE magazine, a new fashion and lifestyle mag here in South Florida. He provided me with a copy of the latest book and I was even more interested in working for him. Luckily, I made a good impression and Josh offered to send a few freelance stories my way.

Due to scheduling conflicts I wasn't able to write the first story he gave me, but the second was just around the corner. Last week I had the chance to sit down and interview Ivonne de la Vega, a coutoure fashion designer based in Ft. Lauderdale. De la Vega was just coming off dressing both Gloria Estefan and Mary Hart for the 79th Annual Academy Awards and was gracious enough to sit down and talk to me. It was definitely an incredibly exciting and memorable experience for me.

My profile on de la Vega will be published in the April/May issue of D'LUXE coming out at the end of this month.
