- Words by Lia Crowe Photography by Darren Hull

The definition of good style to Erin is never trying to be someone else, knowing yourself and letting your own personality shine through in your style.

鈥淢y mother has always had amazing style,鈥 Erin says. 鈥淪he always looks great, no matter what鈥檚 she鈥檚 doing. She鈥檚 had a big influence on my style over the years. She taught me to look after myself, take pride in how I look and not to 鈥榮ave鈥 clothes for special occasions鈥攚ear what you want and feel great every day.鈥

Asked what鈥檚 the best lesson she鈥檚 learned in the last five years, Erin says, 鈥淚t鈥檚 to look after yourself. Being a mom of three busy kids can be all-consuming and draining, so you have to make time to take care of yourself, always.鈥
