Between busy schedules and lack of energy to tackle the project thoroughly, Wurth Organizing is sought out to assist. A closet audit can be a wonderful first step.

CULINARY CREATIONS
BEAUTIFUL FOOD never goes out of style FOOD STYLIST ELLEN STRAINE PROVES THAT COMFORT FOOD CAN TASTE AND LOOK COZY ARTICLE STACI HAUK | PHOTOGRAPHY ERICA + JON PHOTOGRAPHY
ELLEN STRAINE HAS BEEN A PROFESSIONAL FOOD STYLIST SINCE 1993 AND THOROUGHLY ENJOYS THE ART OF MAKING FOOD CAMERA-READY. “Some of my friends used to scold me for playing with my food…little did they know it would be my career choice,” she jokes. Ellen's career choice was fueled by her passions for food, cooking, gardening and playing. “My world is filled with beautiful food, fabulous colors, fresh herbs and exotic spices. I enjoy creating images that capture the natural beauty of real food,” she says. Ellen's client list is impressive, from Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale, Ritz-Carlton, P.F. Chang’s and Pei Wei to Kona Grill, Winco, Fogo de Chao and many others. With a library of cookbooks, an ever-changing collection of props and accessories, and by immersing herself in current food and photography trends, Ellen makes sure beautiful food is always in style. Rich colors and flavors abound for fall. Ellen says preparing a dish and plating it are equally important elements to pleasing a guest's palate. She provides a delicious recipe along with presentation tips that bring extra appeal to the table.

Roast vegetables in a 350-degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Remove from oven and mash everything together.

MARKET STREET OFFERS AN ECLECTIC RANGE OF FINE SHOPPING EXPERIENCES, AND ONE OF THE MOST NOTABLE IS IBOUTIQUE. Eye-popping accessories and lush fabrics greet you as you enter this distinctively on-trend shop. Owner Brisann Smerz has extensive experience in retail, which led her to open iboutique 12 years ago, with a focus on fitting every woman's style and size. "Our regular clients are amazing, and they can attest to the fact that there is a little something for everyone at iboutique. I can fit most sizes and ages, so I cover the spectrum," she says.

While iboutique has a niche in artistic and contemporary jewelry, they offer one-of-a-kind clothing finds for ages 25-plus, along with pieces for more mature and business-focused women. "I have the best jewelry, with lines such as French Candy, Virgin Saints and local vendors like Jessica Elliot who is based in LA. I offer a wide selection, and as I like to say, jewelry has no size—it fits everyone!" Staple pieces, with a few trends mixed in, can spice up any wardrobe, no matter a woman's size. Denim is a huge trend for fall, and Brisann notes she is the only boutique owner in her area with a great selection of denim for women. "We pair denim with everything—dress it up or down, it always works." Brisann feels she has chosen the perfect location for iboutique because women in Scottsdale are relaxed and unafraid to be themselves. She is there to offer fashion advice as you browse the shop, as she wants her philosophy of top-notch service to transcend throughout the entire shopping experience. Her picks for fall keep with her ability to add bold touches to everyday looks.

G R A& C L E A C E THE INSPIRING STORY BEHIND HOW RICK AND MELISSA HINNANT TURNED TRAGEDY INTO VICTORY AND CONTINUE TO GIVE BACK THROUGH FASHION + STYLE 38
North Scottsdale Lifestyle | September 2018
THEIR “ACCIDENTAL COMPANY.” It’s what Melissa and Rick Hinnant call Grace & Lace— their successful fashion company that bloomed from great tragedy and a pair of boot socks. Rick owned a landscaping company, and Melissa was in real estate. They decided it was time to slow down and start a family, but surprisingly to them, this took more time than they expected. After years of trying, Melissa finally had a healthy pregnancy, and the two were on their way to fulfilling a lifelong dream.
“IT WASN’T SOMETHING EITHER OF US SET OUT TO DO, BUT LOOKING BACK, IT’S LIKE EVERYTHING FELL INTO PLACE DESPITE THINGS FEELING LIKE THEY WERE—AT TIMES—FALLING APART.”
“One day, I was inspired to make a pair of boot socks for myself that had lace on the top of them peeking out of my boots,” Melissa says. “They took me eight hours to make and were a pain in the butt—I swore I’d never make another pair again. However, every time I wore them, women—total strangers—would stop me to ask where I bought these socks.” Rick encouraged Melissa to sell them online, where people fell in love with both the socks and the story behind them. That’s how the “accidental business” started. “It wasn’t something either of us set out to do, but looking back, it’s + Honeycomb Knit Sweater + Lightweight Two Fit Knit + Chiffon Hi/Low Extender
like everything fell into place despite things feeling like they were—at times—falling apart,” Melissa says. In 2013, Rick and Melissa appeared on ABC’s hit show “Shark Tank” and developed an incredible partnership with self-made real estate millionaire and “Shark Tank” investor Barbara Corcoran. People were continuing to fall in love with the brand and its story. Grace & Lace went

SIMPLE AND SOPHISTICATED STYLE FOR THE FASHIONFORWARD MAN ARTICLE STACI HAUK PHOTOGRAPHY ERICA + JON PHOTOGRAPHY
FASHION DOES NOT HAVE TO BE COMPLICATED. Department stores can overwhelm, with too many trendy pieces that are often out of a comfortable realm for the everyday man. John Hornacek, owner of Scottsdale Men's Shoppe, points out that when a man chooses pieces for his wardrobe, simple style can go a long way. "I love clothes, but being an owner of a golf store for 22 years put me in a constant rotation of wearing golf apparel," he says. "I realized men’s fashion always changes, and that is very exciting...I should experience that more often." John saw a need for a men's store where they would be the main focus. "Because my closet was full of golf shirts, my wife and I thought, 'Let’s do something just for men!' After all, there are so many wonderful women’s boutiques." Scottsdale Men's Shoppe was crafted to appeal to the casual Arizona lifestyle. John says they didn't overthink the concept too much because it comes down to one basic principle: quality items that will last. "We carry a variety of clothing lines like Mizzen and Main. These performance dress shirts have moisture wicking, which is key in Arizona," he says. John also notes that buying U.S. brands is of utmost importance to him. "I handle the purchasing, so I stock the store with items I would wear. If I won't wear it, I won't order it. This store is my perfect closet." Scottsdale Men's Shoppe thrives in North Scottsdale due to clientele appreciating the longevity and wonderful fabrics of the clothing
