TORONTO, FEBRUARY 2017 – Women of Influence is excited to welcome celebrity stylist Kim Appelt as their first ever Style Expert and Fashion Editor.

With a mandate of providing the expert insights and inspiration needed to support women’s professional advancement, Women of Influence is looking forward to sharing Kim’s fashion advice with their large community of women.

“At Women of Influence we strive to touch on all aspects of a woman’s professional life, and to offer actionable insights from qualified experts,” says Stephania Varalli, Co-CEO of Women of Influence. “Partnering with Kim — who is not only a style expert, but also an entrepreneurial success — enables us to offer sought-after advice on workplace attire, from a highly qualified and inspirational role model.”

“When I started in the fashion industry as a stylist, I had a goal of helping women,” explains Kim. “A desire to lift them up, and make their life a little easier by taking the guesswork out of fashion. I’m honored to be asked by Women of Influence to be the new style expert and fashion editor. I look forward to helping all women put their best ‘shoe’ forward!”
