Meet Mandy Fok - ChickAdvisor graphics guru, spunky worker bee at our events, and serious contender for 'Poser of the Year'. In fact, the only possible solution to showing up at work dressed in the same outfit as your boss was to make an in-office poll for Who Wore It Best, (aka The Pose-Off) don't you agree?

While you may not read much from her, Mandy is the one responsible for...

Julie-Anne Cleyn is a recent addition to the ChickAdvisor family!

The spunky Editorial Assistant was put to the test on her very first day when we subjected her to the posing wall. She took it like a pro, and so we decided to keep her. Though her editorial work on ChickAdvisor articles may be harder to spot (she makes us all look better correcting boo boos and grammatical blunders), you may...

Pam Derksen's infectious joie de vivre was never more evident than on her wedding day. After an extended rainy spell in the weeks before the Big Day, her dreams of garden nuptials were replaced by a humid, unairconditioned church basement with hasty work by friends and family to transform it into a silvery glowing festive hall. While any other bride would pull out their...

Ali de Bold is the feisty Chick behind the brand. A one-time insurance stooge, her casual conversation one evening with then-fiancé Alex quickly snowballed into the site you love - ChickAdvisor! She has propelled this site to several major industry wins, while having a ton of fun with members at our signature offline events, such as the hugely popular ShopCrawls....

Julie-Anne has just started her internship with us as an Editorial Assistant. Of course in her first week without notice we made her hit the posing wall to model these cool shoe accessories from Erica Giuliani. She has nice legs, no?

Sorry, I'm being rude. This is Julie-Anne: It just so happened that the Fringe Anklet, $28 USD worked great with her outfit and she knew when we...

Claire Rahn is our awesome editor and, little known fact, my sister! This stylish Mom of 3 is an ex-pat living in the U.S thankful every winter not to be dealing with Winnipeg's frosty temperatures. She's fluent in German from several years living abroad and loves to argue politics and philosophy - especially with our lawyer brother, which is just as painful as it sounds. Her diverse life...

The talented Heather Loney first came to ChickAdvisor as an intern. Many months later, she is one of our core fashion contributors. This quiet gal may appear shy on the surface, but her thoughtful interviews with high profile talent like Eric del Monaco and Eddie Maleterre suggest otherwise. We thought you'd like to know more about the mysterious Miss Heather.

If you have to pick...

Joy David-Tilberg is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. This is the girl who holds your bag while you indecisively try outfit after outfit during a busy ShopCrawl, delivering compliment after enthusiastic compliment despite suffering from a nasty sinus cold (not that I would personally know this.... okay, yes). Is she all softy? Or is there more than meets the eye...

Marayna Dickinson didn't happen by ChickAdvisor; she happened to ChickAdvisor. As our Paris correspondent, she brings her zany but entirely lovable personality to her writing. This is the person you want to travel with - I think she could convince anyone to try anything.

I'm steeling myself for this one: what is your nickname and how did you get it?

Megan Matthews is the girl you immediately like: funny, smart, and unpretentiously stylish. A core member of our fashion reporting team, she always has some zany story to share. Speaking of which....

ChickAdvisor
I always have to ask: do you have a nickname? (Also, can you possibly top K-Dawg?)

Megan
Muff is my nickname. And most people giggle at this, given it’s a name that can mean other things...
