Desmond's Picks
Desmond is a powerhouse of a personal shopper. Growing up 45 minutes outside of Charleston, Desmond obtained his education and love for fashion in the downtown area. He originally wanted to be in men’s fashion, but after an internship with Stacy and the Hampden team in 2014, his career choice quickly changed. His style is considered to be eclectic, consistent and confident. Besides being a senior personal shopper, he is a part of Hampden’s buying trips to assist in pre-selecting our assortment for the upcoming seasons. His favorite Hampden brands are Marni, La Collection, Proenza Schouler, Khaite, and Stoned. If you’re ready to be pushed in your style, Desmond is your guy!“
1. I BELIEVE IN WEARING WHAT YOU LIKE AND FEELING GOOD ABOUT THAT AS OPPOSED TO HAVING TOO MANY OUTSIDE OPINIONS ON YOUR OUTFIT. AT THE END OF THE DAY, YOU’RE THE ONE WEARING IT, AND HOW YOU FEEL SHOULD RELATIVELY TRUMP ANYONE ELSE’S OPINION OF HOW THEY THINK YOU SHOULD LOOK. BUT STILL HAVE AN OPEN MIND TO TRY NEW THINGS.
2. DON’T TAKE YOURSELF TOO SERIOUSLY! FASHION IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN AND EXPRESSIVE.
3. LASTLY, PLEASE GET DRESSED! PUTTING TOGETHER A LOOK FOR THE DAY ALMOST ALWAYS MAKES BOOSTS YOUR MOOD. AND SOMETIMES YOU NEVER KNOW WHO YOU’LL RUN IN TO OR WHERE THE DAY WILL GO.”
