I had the pleasure of working with the smart, stunning, and multifaceted Tyra Banks, while assisting stylist Ty-Ron Mayes, on the latest spread for UK’s FAULT Magazine. These striking photos were taken by Udo Spreitzenbarth. It was an amazing and incredibly talented team of people to work with. The photos speak for themselves and I couldn’t be prouder to have my name attached to it.

Perez Hilton described it to the [fabulous Tyra] T stating in his title “Tyra Banks Is Flawsome & Fierce On The Cover Of Fault” and we couldn’t agree more! You can read his full article here.

The Style Armory girls are back at their “favorite vintage hot spot, Antoinette!” These girls are breaking it down and busting out their best of the best one day only at a special discounted price just for Antoinette customers. Don’t miss out on drinks, giggles, and designer vintage steals this Saturday, June 29, 2013 from 12-7pm, at 119 Grand Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

The Style Armory is an online consignment and vintage fashion destination that features a collaboration of editorial and e-commerce. It is curated by two long time friends who share a true love for fashion both past and present. Julie Siden and Jenn Zinn joined forces professionally in 2011 to bring a voice to the world of online consignment and vintage fashion, as their creative synergy and love of style spans decades. This team of two has similar fashion related backgrounds both personal and professional that power The Style Armory, and they each bring a unique perspective to this website. Let’s just say they have a designer and a stylist, who both have years of experience in navigating through retail to get the look.

About Antoinette: Daughter, Lexi, named the store after her amazing mom who always encouraged her to open a vintage shop. Antoinette worked in the fashion industry in the late 1950′s for the well known NYC based French milliner Lilly Dache and collected so many great finds from the chicest stores while working in the city in those days. She also held onto certain pieces all the way up until the 90′s. This wonderful shop located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn is outfitted with all those cherished finds from over the years.

WEBSM-Yelizaveta

Welcome to my blog…

Welcome To My Blog

WEBBG-Our-Story-Photo1
When we lived in Russia my mother, Yelizaveta, often designed a lot of her clothes and had them custom-made. Looking through her sketch books and sneaking into her bathroom to rummage through her makeup drawer when I was four years old is one of my most precious and vivid memories, and was my first step into the world of Fashion and Beauty. Yelizaveta has always been my favorite name. When I decided to create a blog about fashion, beauty, and things that I find fun, interesting and inspiring, naming it Yelizaveta seemed like the perfect fit. And yes, I still rummage through her makeup drawer and raid her closet every chance I get!

Some fun facts: Yelizaveta is the Russian version of Elizabeth. I added the hyphen for easier pronunciation. Some of the words used in Urban Dictionary’s definition of Yelizaveta: ‘beautiful, amazing, kind, smart, funny, talented, one of a kind’… How appropriate!

A little bit about me [Polina Roytman]: I studied at Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City and, later, the Polimoda International Institute in Florence, Italy. I worked in fashion for Donna Karan and independent label Myth and Ritual, before transitioning into Costume Design and Fashion Styling. I’ve worked with Celebrity Stylist Ty-Ron Mayes and Emmy Award winning Costume Designers Sally Lesser and David Zyla; as well as esteemed photographers Andrea Blanch, Andres Serrano, Melanie Acevedo, Asha Fuller, Jeffrey Bucari, Emin Kadi, and Udo Spreitzenbarth. Other credits include: America’s Got Talent, America’s Next Top Model, Good Morning America, Nike, BMI’s 59th Annual Country Awards, Lufthansa Airlines, MasterCard, Toshiba, ZINK Magazine, Susan Lucci for Malibu Pilates, StyleCaster featuring Amber Rose, Warner Bros CMA party, South by Southwest, The Nate Berkus show, CenterLight Healthcare, WestEast Magazine, Actress Marian Brock for the 83rd Annual Academy Awards, Devious Maids [ABC Studios], Comedy Central, NBC, Lincoln Center, Gerald W. Lynch Theater, Looksima, and LookLab. You can find out more at polinaroytman.com
