A Day in the Life of Cindy!

By Jennifer Andrews | Published March 1st, 2010

A Day in the Life of… The One and Only Cindy B:
ROXY’S RAD CAMPAIGN MANAGER

 Job Title/Description of what you do:
I am Roxy’s Campaign Manager. I work in the marketing department and help manage all of our brand messaging to make sure it is consistently carried throughout all channels (print advertising, in-store creative, online advertising, roxy.com, etc.). ‘Hello Summer’ is our next campaign coming soon! I also manage our large scale partnerships such as the one we have with JBL headphones,and our Design a Roxy Bikini promotion with Schick Quattro for Women (coming May 3rd!)

Time worked at ROXY:
6 years! Crazy to think I started out as an intern over 6 years ago.

Fav part of working for ROXY:
All of the friends I have made along the way!  This company is full of intelligent, creative, inspiring individuals who make coming to work not such a bad thing.  I grew up wearing Roxy every single day in high school and to now be working for a brand whose lifestyle I truly appreciate is amazing.

Style Icon/Style Inspiration:
There are too many to name!  Love, love, love Rachel Bilson, MK&A Olson, Sienna Miller.  And I’m inspired by anything Chanel, fashion mags, vintage stores, trips to New York….

Go-To Fashion Item or Outfit right now:
‘Twiggy’ legging jeans by James Jeans!  I have them in dark denim and black.  They are so so comfy and cute.  Obsessed.

Advice to Readers:
In life:  Take chances, try new things, challenge others, get to know people and most of all, enjoy life!
Career:  Do well in school, think outside the box, get an internship (or 2 or 3) in a field not just for experience but to make sure it’s something you can/want to do for the rest of your life. I thought I wanted to be a broadcast journalist for the longest time until I got an internship at Fox News. I loved it but quickly realized that career path wasn’t for me.
Fashion: Wear whatever makes you feel happy!  Who cares what others think?

Exciting Upcoming Projects:
Fall and Holiday 2010 campaigns!  Seems so far away but it will be here before we know it.

Thanks Cindy! Check back next month for another Roxy superstar!

 

Caught in the Act of Wearing Roxy…Jenny!

By Jennifer Andrews | Published February 23rd, 2010

I stealthily snapped a picture of Jenny stylin’ in new arrival, Jump Higher. I particularly like the way she layered it with a tank for times when it’s a little too early to be rocking a more crop- style top (like now…in freezing February…). So cute!

Roxy in Vancouver: Day 2

By Jodi Day | Published February 17th, 2010

Driving through the downtown streets getting to see all the people from the RV point of view is pretty awesome. I went down to the Quiksilver Store on Granville street where Christina Culver was giving Roxy Cheer Manicures. If you’re in Vancouver, stop by the Quiksilver store (820 Granville Street) from now until February 20th for your free Roxy Cheer Manicure.

Roxy in Vancouver: Shop Tours

By Jodi Day | Published February 14th, 2010

I met up with the Roxy team Saturday morning at the Quiksilver office and I got my first look at my whip for the next week – the Roxy RV. I gotta say, I’m hella popular in this thing. At first I was confused by all the people staring, but within the first five minutes of driving downtown someone yelled “ROXXXXYYYYY, WOOOOOOOOOO!!!” and I realized it’s not me, it’s the RV… maybe I should drive this thing full time?!

Beep! Beep!

First thing on the agenda? Shop tours of North Shore Girl, Showcase, Pacific Boarder, and Comor. Team riders Erin Comstock, Amber Stackhouse, Robyn Van Gyn and Sarah Burke arrived with Roxy cupcakes and swag.

Roxy in Vancouver: Opening Ceremonies

By Jodi Day | Published February 13th, 2010

The Opening Ceremonies gave me many ideas for my next birthday party (April 29th). 1) Have a giant drum for banging and dancing on. 2) Definitely have an epic light show. 3) Unlimited shirtless handsome men wearing wolf hat/capes. You may have noticed only one of these babes at the Opening Ceremonies… My party is going to be better.

What athletes would I invite to my party? Well, Solely based on outfits, the guest list would be as follows

Andorra: well done with their casual cool pattern. I guarantee these guys would show up with gifts.

2b

Australia: I am partial to black & white and these guys looked goooood.

3

4

Austria & Great Britain: I like the preppy/school uniform look they both had… I wasn’t fooled though, these guys would be the first to dance on my giant drum.

5b

5

Germany: The retro vest with the bright colors reminded me of what my dad used to wear skiing. Of course my Dad can come to this party.

8

Mexico: By far the best outfit. Totally casual parka with a fur hood. classic. cool. Sending them an invite right now.

6

Honorable Mention: Canada. I squinted my eyes and imagined they were wearing plaid shirts, black jeans, and fur hats – which made them look like most of my friends and I wanted them all at my jam jam of the year.

Donald Sutherland, yes Jack Bauer’s Dad, was one of eight that carried out the flag. He is coming to my party so my Dad has someone cool to hang out with.

Roxy in Vancouver: Introduction

By Jodi Day | Published February 12th, 2010

Hello – I’m Jodi. I will be your local blog host reporting live from the games in Vancouver. I’m responsible for driving the Roxy team around on the Roxy bus and bringing all of  YOU an exclusive look at all the behind the scenes action.

I call Vancouver home and my Mom was a bus driver when I was little, so you are all in good hands. I have never seen my city so alive and I’m excited to share it with you. You won’t have to just take my word for it either, I’m going to show you the buzz through the lens of my Canon DSLR.
