But just recently, the Los Angeles-based creative added yet another job to her impressive resume: styling Zales&#8217; Mother&#8217;s Day 2021 campaign, directed by Dave Meyers.

Some of the ways she made her vision a reality are by styling jewelry in a modern way. What does that look like? &#8220;Stacking rings [and]\/or layering gold chains,&#8221; says the expert. She also mixed a variety of textures (feathers, tweeds, suedes, among others) with &#8220;juicy colors&#8221; that lent themselves to double take-worthy results.
