My Style: Simone Brandão

Simone Brandão, 32, of Suwanee, is an admissions representative for the English department of Gwinnett College.

SIGNATURE STYLE: "I love the mixture between casual and chic. I spend hours playing with clothes; matching stuff before going out." Here, she wears 7 for All Mankind jeans with an Express blouse and Madden Girl heels. She accessorizes with her Louis Vuitton bag and leather jacket from Forever 21.

Brandao, who owns a large collection of 7 for All Mankind Jeans, shows off this pair in a dark blue wash.

One of Simone Brandao's biggest splurges was this Louis Vuitton bag.

A WEAKNESS: "High heels. I think a nice high heel goes well with anything. I wear them all day long no matter where. I could sleep in high heels." A closer look at the leopard print peep toe Madden Girl heels that Brandao purchased from DSW.

Simone Brandao shows off this one-shoulder top that she purchased in Brazil along with a denim skirt from the Gap.

FAVORITE STORES: "Express, Saks Fifth Avenue, Forever 21, and tons in Brazil where I go every year." She purchased this one-shoulder top with sequin detailing from Brazil, which roughly translates from French to, "Living with fresh air and happiness."

FAVORITE LABELS: "I don't really go for labels. I go for something that matches my own personality. I like to feel sexy and dressy all the time." She accessorizes her Express blouse with a turquoise scarf that was purchased in Europe.

A FASHION PET PEEVE: "Someone who spends lots of money on clothing and still looks trashy. I believe clothing is about taste and personality, not about price." Brandao wears a red linen jumpsuit and silver flower clip, both from Express.

Brandao's red linen jumpsuit from Express features a wrap knot across the waist.

ATLANTA STYLE IS..."It's a place where you can have your own style." A closer look at Brandao's silver flower clip that she purchased from Express.

BEST FIND: "Lots of shoes from Brazil. Love them!" Brandao, who loves heels, shows off a pair of Not Parted open-toed polka dot heels she purchased in Brazil.
