WHITNEY SAVAGE
26, book and stationery buyer at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts
Seen at: Voltage: Fashion Amplified 2011.
What are you wearing? Betty Lane vintage dress, tights from Target, Cole Haan heels.
Describe your style: Country chic? I'm drawn to simple, natural colors and comfortable design, but I also try to appear somewhat polished.
Do you aim to stand out in the crowd? No, I prefer to people-watch.
What about the Twin Cities inspires you? We have such incredible local talent -- designers, musicians, artists -- it's virtually impossible not to be inspired by these people.
What's the most common fashion mistake? Wearing something just because it's trendy, and not because you feel good in it. When you are uncomfortable, it shows.
