who’s that girl: chelsea henderson

Aspiring writer, recovering Senate staffer, blogger, fashionista, yoga teacher-in-training, and mom, Chelsea really is all that! She is an avid supporter of all the Alexandria Stylebook stores and partners. With a style that’s one part rock and roll and other part Capitol Hill sophistication, she is one of my favorites to dress!

We’ve become close during her visits to Kiskadee; she has a dramatic story behind every shopping need with a knack for picking out the items I wanted for myself. When we first met, she was in shopping for a date outfit. Well, the outfit was amazing (if I do say so myself) but sadly, the date was not. His loss. If you know someone looking for a hot date, let us know.

Among other things, she writes a blog (The Chelsea Chronicles) and has e-published a short story, My Night with George Clooney (available on Amazon). In the last year, she took time from her day job to write not one but two novels, which she is currently in the process of trying to talk someone into representing. If I were a literary agent, I’d want to sign her!

If you aren’t immediately infatuated with her beauty, her personality is sure to win you over. She is funny and blunt, doesn’t hesitate when it comes to the truth, but somehow still manages to lay it to you nicely and make you laugh! To top it off, she finishes her yoga teacher training at Mind The Mat at the end of January; given that she learned from our best friends across the street, I can’t wait to take her class! Or read her book. Or dress her for the next adventure to come her way.
