Suited up in a fiery red blazer and chain link necklace, celeb stylist Julie Matos is all smiles as she gears up for her fashion-forward VW shoot.
Touted as one of the most in-demand stylists in the industry, Matos' clientele has included the likes of Jennifer Hudson and Demi Moore.
When it comes to styling tips, Matos says, "Don't be afraid to use color. A single colorful piece or accessory can instantly update your look."
A sparkly bag or stiletto can take a humdrum outfit from drab to fab. Take a peek at some of Matos' blinged-out accessory picks for the shoot.
"To succeed [as a stylist], you have to always know what the next move is--if there is a problem, the answer is never no, you have to do it or make it or fix it," Matos told Lookbooks.com. You just have to make it happen."
After a day of red carpet styling, Matos is ready to roll in her hot VW ride.
Dogs, schmogs. A pair of swoon-worthy kicks are the real girl's best friend. Check out the stunning collection of shoes Matos lined up for the shoot.
Matos started out producing and styling fashion shows for May department stores in Boston. Today, she is the fashion editor for Dubai's Pashion Magazine and one of the hottest go-to fashionistas for red carpet stylings.
