Check out this interview 13 Itches did with my sister Rosario

Entrepreneur, marketing and business mastermind, fashion mogul, stylist, realist, speaker, motivator … and the list goes on. Anyone who knows Rosario Herrera can attest to a score of 10/10 for each one of the aforementioned attributes. I’ve known R for years and I remember how she told me one of her first jobs was as a sales girl at Footlocker way back in Long Beach, California, where she was born. Fast forward to 2011, and she’s already achieved a lifetime’s worth of success. From making a name for herself in the Philippine fashion industry through years of experience as a stylist to delivering talks to many about Fashion and Business. Driving her very own streetwear store, Greyone Social, and now expanding her very own lifestyle monthly publication, Status magazine. What can this woman NOT do?
The great thing about R is she’s so dynamic. In one meeting with her, you could end up having a 3 hour conversation about life, success and business. At a moment’s notice, you’re popping bottles and shooting the breeze with her at the club. Mind you, this could all occur at the same time and same place.
Nonetheless, when the day is done you are left inspired, energised and most of all, knowing you can do so much more with yourself. Having said that, for a deeper look inside the life of Rosario we’ve given her the spotlight for this edition of 13 Questions.
1. All-round entreprenuer/fashion mogul/store owner/magazine editor. Tell us a little about yourself.
I started off in the fashion industry as an intern with InStyle magazine in LA. That really opened my eyes to how the magazine business works. Then I transitioned as a stylist because I wanted to create beautiful images like what I saw in the magazines. I was very focused on my styling career because I just had this unquenchable desire be the best. Haha.
Because I worked with clothes for some many years, I dabbled in designing tshirts for my line Tru Youth. It was really a side project that took off when NeYo and Chris Brown wore it. During that time, I was traveling a lot and was inspired by what the streetwear industry was doing, and decided to open Greyone Social. At this time I still had a full time styling career, a t-shirt line and now a store. However, I still felt like I had something to say about this lifestyle and culture so I started Status Magazine.
