"I'm a retail hooker. I pay attention to these things. I work at HotWired and it's casual, so I can dress like myself."

Overalls: Sears, purchased at Crossroads 5 approximately six years ago.

Sweater: Club Monaco sweater bought brand-new two years ago.

Shoes: From a shoe store on Haight Street.

Tank Undershirt: Fruit-of-the-Loom white tank from Woolworth's, withstanding four years of wear-n-tear.

Top: Betsey Johnson, picked up at Wasteland a few months ago.

Where do you get your hair cut? A friend of mine does my hair. He works for an agency in NY and has done hair and makeup for some familiar ad campaigns as well as runway shows. He cuts and colors his friends' hair in his living room.

What fashion magazines do you read? I don't really look at magazines that often. I tend to look at the basic mags like Bazaar and Vogue. I also like Paper and Face and the European Vogues. But when I look at a magazine I look to admire the designers' and photographers' art, not so much for ideas for outfits.
