Witty Conversation with Lexi Cross of Lulu Frost

July 22, 2015

Last month I launched a new column called “Witty Conversation With” (you can read the first post here) and this month I’m excited to be featuring Lexi Cross. I first met Lexi thanks to my good friend Taylor (they went to high school together!) She’s one of those girls you meet and instantly like. She oozes cool girl chic and she’s as savvy as she is kind.

So meet Lexi…

Tell me about yourself in 3 sentences.

If I could describe myself in 3 sentences I would say: I’m a NYC-transplant from Seattle living and working in Manhattan. During the day I’m the Marketing Director for Lulu Frost jewelry and on my nights and weekends I run an Instagram account called @shoesofnyc with a friend of mine. I love to write, read, spend time with friends and… I ask a LOT of questions about pretty much everything.

What does a typical day look like for you?

Wake up at 5:30, head to a Classpass gym session at 6am, head home, make some coffee, shower work, post-work street style photography for @shoesofnyc with my partner Huston and, after that, drinks and dinner with friends, an evening event or home to catch up on work, reading or SLEEP.
