I'm still on a high and have a huge smile on my face from my interview Wednesday with Christopher Straub of Project Runway fame. He was extremely fun to chat with and shared some great information about his new holiday line at maurices. And he actually asked me a few questions too!
But before I get to our interview, let's see what Christopher has been up to...
He has created a super fun, flirty and affordable line of holiday clothing and accessories exclusively for maurices, one of my favorite shops.
His line includes some adorable party dresses, including this little black dress, which he told me is his favorite piece in the collection...
And inspired by his first, and winning, design on Project Runway...
His collection also includes some great separates like this black top...
And I love this pendant cluster necklace...
So now let's hear more about Christopher's new line from the designer himself!
**Please disregard the annoying "call recorder demo" line across the video...pretend it says something like "Best Project Runway designer interview ever", alright? :)
Thanks so much to maurices and to Christopher for giving me the opportunity to interview him...it was an honor and so much fun!
And now for something exciting for my readers!
maurices has given me and one lucky This Girl's Life reader a $50 gift card! And this is the perfect time of year for a little extra cash, right? Use it to buy that cute little black dress for a holiday party, or use it for Christmas gifts!

My favorites are: the floral textured party dress, the one shoulder floral print top, and the viper textured signature satchel.
