Hi,Thanks for stopping by!By day, I’m a magazine writer who specializes in the same lifestyle topics I cover right here on the blog: Fashion, beauty, bridal, travel and luxury lifestyle topics! In fact, my life as a style and beauty editor has landed me bylines in national and regional magazines like Girls’ Life, Latina, Arizona Bride, Everyday with Rachael Ray, The Fashion Spot, SheKnows, BrideRush, ArizonaFoothills and lots more. I have had the pleasure of meeting and interviewing VIPs like Christian Louboutin, Tim Gunn and Laura Mercier. And I’ve also had the pleasure of appearing on television as a Style Expert.2012-10-30-05.16.00This blog is my personal space where I can share the stylish and fabulous things I come across while writing as well as some tidbits into a living a glamorous desert lifestyle. StyleSizzle is for the fashion, style and beauty-obsessed gal living on the West Coast. Because here, us desert dwellers have a bit of a different timetable than the rest of the fashion industry. And our needs are different too. I won’t post about fur when it’s 100 degrees outside and I’ll never tell you to wear thick winter coats that we just don’t need.I will, however, tell you fashion and beauty news that’s relevant now! To bring you style tips, inspiration and the fashion finds we need, even though it’s 110 degrees out and all you’d like to wear is shorts and a tank.I’ll tell you how to wear the latest fashion trends and what to wear to many of the Valley’s great events. And I’ll give you honest reviews of local boutiques and beauty products galore.While it may not seem like it I promise, you can be stylish, even in the desert!I love to hear from readers, so please don’t hestiate to shoot me an email or connect with me on Twitter, Facebook or Pinterest, too.Wishing you a glamorous day!-Marlene
