Naturally Influential: Virginia Bundy on Storytelling Through Style
At OuiShopp, we’re all about celebrating personal style and the creative minds behind it. Enter Virginia Bundy, a bridal, destination, and event stylist with a knack for transforming fashion into a form of storytelling. From her Georgia roots to her globetrotting adventures, Virginia’s approach to style is as sophisticated as it is authentic. In this exclusive interview, she shares her journey, her favorite brands, and how she used the OuiShopp app to curate the perfect New Year’s Eve look.
From DIY to High End Stylist
Virginia’s love for fashion began early. “Growing up, my mom would dress me and my siblings alike, but I always wanted to stand out,” she recalls. Her solution? A little DIY flair. “I’d go into my bedroom and cut my clothing to make them look different from my siblings’.”
By 17, she had her first sewing machine and dreamed of becoming a designer. But as she explored her creative passions, her true calling became clear: “I realized my passion wasn’t in making clothes—it was in curating them and helping others discover their unique style.”
Her journey led her to a decade in high-end showrooms, collaborating with designers, and honing her expertise. “Fashion, to me, is about storytelling. It’s how we present who we are, where we’ve been, and where we’re going, without needing to say a word,” she says.
A Style That’s Effortless Yet Polished
Virginia’s personal style is all about contrasts. “I’m naturally drawn to contrasts: effortless yet polished, bold but timeless,” she explains. Her wardrobe staples reflect this philosophy, with brands like YSL, Helsa, and Agolde denim making the cut.
Her favorite looks are versatile yet edgy, with pieces that transition seamlessly between casual and formal. It’s this blend of functionality and flair that defines her approach to styling—both for herself and her clients.
The Trusted Advisor
When Virginia needs a second opinion, she turns to her mom. “She has such a classic and timeless sense of style, and I really value her opinion—even though I’m not the best at actually taking her advice!” she laughs. Ultimately, Virginia trusts her instincts but appreciates the collaborative process of seeking input.
It’s no surprise that she’s become the go-to stylist for her friends. “Seeing how much confidence the right outfit could bring to someone made me realize this wasn’t just a hobby; it was something I wanted to do professionally,” she says.
Virginia recently took her expertise to the OuiShopp app, where she curated a dazzling New Year’s Eve look for our founder, Carolyn. Using the app’s intuitive features, she assembled a spree that balanced sparkle and sophistication—perfect for ringing in the new year in style.
