Last year I was given an amazing chance to ask Nina Garcia some questions for Talking Makeup’s style section: www.styleinterviews.com It was around the same time Nina published her second book: The One Hundred: A Guide to the Pieces Every Stylish Woman Must Own.

I though to share with you my interview with Nina Garcia, just in case you’ve misses it!:)

Nina Garcia is one of Bravo’ Project Runway famous judges along with supermodel Heidi Klum, and fashion designer Michael Kors. Nina is also a magazine editor who until August 2008 acted as the Editor-at-Large of Elle Magazine. Nina is now a fashion director for Marie Claire Magazine. In 2007 Nina Garcia released her first book called: The Little Black Book of Style, by Harper Collins, which is a must-have read for any woman who would like to discover her own fashion sense. In August 2008 Nina published her second book: The One Hundred: A Guide to the Pieces Every Stylish Woman Must Own.

In this interview Nina Garcia tells Marta Walsh what it takes to be successful in the fashion industry, the best part of being a judge on the Emmy nominated Bravo series Project Runway, her inspiration behind her latest book The One Hundred, and the Nina Garcia’s definition for style.

Marta Walsh: Why did you decide on a career in fashion and what does it take to be successful at it?
