LIVING SPACES: ERIN WASSON

Erin Wasson is a Texan girl with an elusive coolness about her that you just can't chase. A couple of years ago, I read that she bumped into Alexander Wang in an elevator and that's when they discovered they were virtually neighbours and living two floors apart from one another. They started hanging out with each other and then HELLO, she became his muse and styled a show for him. At that point, Wang plunged into superstardom and the rest is history. He's clever. Everything about her screams muse from head to toe, and if Wang didn't pick up on it, someone else would have.

Her home was photographed and published on The Selby, which happens to be one of my top 10 blogsites. Click here to see all of the shots, because these are just a few of many more.

Apart from earning a reputation as one of the hardest-working models in the industry, she's a total business woman. She still models, but has also designed a line for surf and skate label, RVCA, and also created LowLuv jewellery collection. There's more. More as in: an Elvis tattoo, love of surfing, divorcee status and her pitbull named Cream. Plus tonnes of smarts!
