Style Mavens: Jenna Lyons' Beautiful Mess

For what I think are obvious reasons, I have a major crush on J. Crew's Jenna Lyons. She seems to be the counterpoint to everything, from definitions of beauty and personal style, to working motherhood and corporate leadership. Jenna is indeed her own woman, and what better example of her unique approach to life than her beautiful mess of an office.

I love that while others pretend to thrive in perfectly pristine spaces, Jenna boldly proclaims the opposite. With piles of swatches, papers, and personal effects, her office reflects a creative mind at work while still managing to look pretty darn stylish. I can't get enough!

Not only is she considered a "closet fashionista," discreetly stashing handbags and shoes whenever possible, but, as an MIT graduate, she’s also an undercover nerd. Fashion, nerdom, and several years as a Washingtonian have combined to shape her unique perspective on interior design.
