If you are passionate about travel, learning foreign languages and hanging with celebrities, Nadine Jolie is your girl! Here is why we love this lifestyle blogger…

1. I was born in New York City, spent my childhood in San Diego and Dallas, grew up in Atlanta, graduated from boarding school in Santa Barbara, went back to New York City for college, studied abroad in Paris, and then spent my mid/late 20s in Palm Beach, London and Los Angeles. Next up: San Francisco!

2. I didn’t have my 1st kiss until I was 17 (and a half) years old.

Braniac. Athlete. Fashionista. Chef. We fell in love with her and warning – you probably will too!

1. I have two dogs named Calvin and Coco. They’re half maltese, half poodle, and I’m pretty sure they’re the cutest creatures on earth.

2. My favorite television show is Buffy the Vampire Slayer. People used to say that I look like Sarah Michelle Gellar, which made me the happiest girl ever.

3. I was an English major, but I’m really good at math. I went all the way through multivariable calculus and linear algebra in college.

This Fashion Week, keep your eyes and ears open for the clicking of pink suede Dior heels, worn by this Human Resources Executive turned fashion, style, beauty expert. And, if you are nice to her, she may just show you Jennifer Garner’s high school yearbook picture.

1). The first time I walked into the tents at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week was the first time that I can honestly say that I’ve been in love. You know that feeling where your heart beats really quickly, you can’t breathe and you feel like you’re falling? Yep, that was experience walking into the tents. It still happens every time I go back.

Don’t let her glossie brunette locks and saucy style fool you. This art history and Renaissance connoisseur will challenge you to a jump rope match and tell you Blake Lively’s secret to getting those long, glistening legs…

1. I was captain of my High School lacrosse and field hockey teams.

2. I have a killer scar on my left knee from when I tore my ACL playing lacrosse in college. I didn’t completely finish my rehab so now my gait is slightly off…you can’t tell by looking at me but I can tell when the shoe heels on my right foot end up collapsing in.

Today marks a new weekly column on Purple Blab that will introduce you to the most stylish and chic bloggeratti of the moment. Each week, you will meet a new blogger and learn “25 Things You Didn’t Know,” until now!

1. I have a lifelong intense fear of the lifesize blue whale hanging from the ceiling at the Museum of Natural History. Even now I can’t stand beneath it (my heart rate is quickening even as I type this, no joke!)
