"It's more interesting to have just a picture of a small detail - then you can dream all the rest around it.
Because when you see the whole thing, what is there to imagine?" -Dries Van Noten

Katherine Power

Creative Director and Co-Founder, WhoWhatWear. Los Angeles

Katherine Power is the both the co-founder and creative director of our digital obsession WhoWhatWear.com. The concept hits the nail on the head perfectly: it's your destination for immediate access to fashion as portrayed by the world's finest trendsetters. What handbag was Sienna Miller rocking at Maxfield on Thursday afternoon? Your answer is usually online at Power's site Friday morning. It eliminates gossip from the world of fashion, and focuses on the trends and clothes we have come to love. Before co-founding WhoWhatWear.com, Power was the West Coast Editor of both ELLE and ELLEgirl, responsible for scouting new fashion and lifestyle trends and visually translating her findings into the pages of the magazines.

Prior to ELLE, Power acted as the Director of Promotions at Brent Bolthouse Productions, L.A's most recognized special events companies. She was responsible for filling his venues with the power players of the Los Angeles market - ensuring his nightclubs were packed with both celebrities and tastemakers. But her true calling was rooted in the world of fashion. And as much as she is a diehard fashionista, she is just as passionate about the other love of her life: Nelson, her Russian Blue cat, who also happens to make one killer accessory.

<span class='fancyPhotoDesc'>Those boots are by Jenni Kayne, one of my favorite designers. Because I live in LA and never need warm coats, I had a bit of a panic about four days before leaving for NY Fashion Week. Of course, by then all of the fall collections had sold out and Spring was rolling in, so my only option was the sale rack at Zara. As it turns out, I didn’t even take it with me to NY but I still think its pretty great, especially for $79.99.</span><span class='fancyPhotoName'>Shoes, Jenni Kayne; Coat, Zara</span>

<span class='fancyPhotoDesc'>This has been my uniform for the last two years. The combination completely sums up my style. My favorite leather jackets come from my friend’s line, Simone by Katie Nehra. Every season I order the same cut in a new color. The toughness of the jacket makes my favorite Equipment blouses feel less preppy. I have been wearing this combo lately with very dark wide leg J Brands and some high wedges.</span><span class='fancyPhotoName'>Jackets, Simone by Katie Nehra; Tops, Equipment</span>

<span class='fancyPhotoDesc'>The hat is vintage from Wasteland. Our contributing Fashion Editor Laurie Trott pulled it for an editorial shoot and I ended up buying it (though I’ve yet to wear it). The shirt is by The Row and the sweater is something with no label that I picked up at one of my favorite consignment stores in Palm Springs. The bag is my new obsession from the kind people at Mulberry. It’s called the Tilly. It also comes in this pale pink pony hair with rose gold hardware, its gorgeous.

<span class='fancyPhotoDesc'>The apartment that I lived in before this house was less than a block from the Christian Louboutin store. There was a point where I walked there once a week and that was trouble. That’s where I got those yellow kitten heels.

<span class='fancyPhotoDesc'>These Miu Miu platforms have got to be 8 or 10 years old, but I wear them literally ever summer. Certain summer vacation items never go out of style. The dress is by Clu and I wear it in our new book. Sadly I don’t have a lot of time to shop, so I end up buying things straight off of the shoots. The necklace is part of a two piece set that Justin bought me at The Way We Wore for my birthday a few years ago.</span><span class='fancyPhotoName'>Dress, Clu; Necklaces, Vintage; Shoes, Miu Miu</span>

<span class='fancyPhotoDesc'>So these pants on the left are very famous among my group of friends. They are reversible and everyone made fun of me. Zebra on one side and tiny cheetah print on the other. Two summers ago I wouldn’t take them off. I still love them.

<span class='fancyPhotoDesc'>When I worked at Elle Girl, Laurie Trott (who I still work with), styled this jacket so perfectly in an editorial that I went out and bought it. It was a hit this fall with all of the shearling that was going on. The moccasins are by Nicole Richie from her House of Harlow line. She makes the perfect 'airplane' shoes, meaning they are comfortable and they are all easy to slip on and off. I wear these on the weekends and for traveling.  </span><span class='fancyPhotoName'>Jacket, American Eagle Outfitters; Shoes, House of Harlow</span>

<span class='fancyPhotoDesc'>This dress is the one piece of Lanvin for H & M that I bought. The whole collection was gorgeous but I liked this dress the best, partly because I hadn’t seen many people wear it. The ruffles feel fun but the high neck made it feel more polished than some of the other dresses. The belt is vintage and is a gift from (funny enough) Katie Nehra of Simone. </span><span class='fancyPhotoName'>Bag, Givenchy; Belt, Vintage; Dress, Lanvin for H&M; Shoes, Christian Louboutin</span>
