People You Should Know: Sommer Terry

Fashion would not be possible without the outlandish minds of costumers. We take ideas every day from costumes we see whether it be in the movies, or couture runway shows with garments that would never be practical for real life.

Sommer Terry, a native of Texas, attended Columbia College Chicago where she studied fashion retail management. The school's costuming program in L.A. catapulted her career in L.A.'s fast lane. Before Sommer knew where her journey was taking her, she found herself on the sets of movies like Bob Funk, Beyond a Reasonable Doubt, and Dance Flick. However, it's her assistance on Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland that looks like her golden ticket to a magical land of outrageous costumes and blockbuster films, and awards a plenty for these beautiful characters. 

We love people like Sommer - at only 24 she has already gained great success in a field that she loves. We can't wait to see more of her costuming and styling on the big screen. Sommer is a great inspiration for those of you who are looking to find realistic ways to break in to the fashion industry.

Pink Slip’s (not so) Guilty Pleasures:

ANTMM- America’s Next Model Marathons- there is nothing better than curling up on the couch to find your dreams have come true and ANTMM is on! We can’t get enough- maybe it is because Tyra is so wise and shares her personal experiences in every challenge, photo shoot, judging panel, and basically any opportunity she has! Obviously our favorite episodes are the Cover Girl commercial photo shoots- and if you tell us you never practiced the Wet Lips Lip Gloss commercial we know either A) you are a liar or B) you haven’t lived! As Tyra would say “Girls want to be that and guys want to be with that” we LOVE it!

What We're Up To: NYC!

Pink Slip is heading back to New York today to scout some new specials for all of you!

If you have SHOWTIME you should be very excited because Season 5 of the totally underrated dramedy 'WEEDS' has returned! Finally! What will happen to Nancy Botwin this season!? We are anxiously awaiting. And though the plot is enough for us to want to tune in each week, we can't help but look forward to seeing one of the shows greatest characters, Silas Botwin (son of Nancy, brother to Shane), played by Hunter Parrish.

Why is he flying so under the radar. He is so cute!







Absolutely Swoon worthy!
