A few months a ago I sat down to a afternoon coffee and croissants with Alisée Mignon of My Houston Closet and I am so excited to feature her on Pied a Terre Blog today! With 9 years of Parisian fashion industry experience Alisée just moved to Houston [fresh out of Hermés headquarters] and is here to help you achieve “the french look” as she would put it.

“I definitely have my own style, you can discover it on my MyHoustonCloset.com, where Chic is my guideline mixed in with motley. This what I love about fashion, you can show something different about yourself everyday without betraying your personal sense of fashion and you can even be someone else if you need a radical change. I am a playful person: I love to experiment and mix things together, this is a step you have to go through if you want to have fun getting dressed and make the game interesting. To me real style is not choosing between modern and vintage, romantic or edgy, it is about finding the best balance/mix and match to create a gorgeous outfit, with the perfect accessories of course, that will reflect the best version of you.

A bit more about me…

I arrived in Houston from Paris where I had been studying and working in the fashion industry for nine years. I have extensive experience in collection development as I worked three years for one of the main superstore brand in France, developing their children’s line. After that I had the chance to work for the most famous French luxury house, Hermès before I moving to Houston.

Feel free to contact me though my website!
