Twitterview with Romeny Chan, @RoeWolfe

Wednesday, November 30, 2011

Good morning everyone! Welcome to today's @MNMOmag Twitterview with @RoeWolfe co-founder Romeny Chan!
 

Where did you grow up and go to school?

Romeny: I grew up in Bloomington as a youth and finished my high school years in Burnsville...

I attended college in Winona for Advertising and English.. Oh, how I do miss the bluffs!
 

I see. So how did you get into the makeup and fashion business?

Romeny: As far as I can remember, I was really into water painting. From there, I painted incessantly using all types of media...

Later, I made a natural transition into fashion and make-up. Truly enjoy working with faces and features
 

What then led you to open @RoeWolfe with Ashley Kilcher?

Romeny: @LuLi795 and I have been in the fashion industry long enough to know it was time to evolve...

From being on sets, artistic direction behind spreads and fashion shows, we wanted our inspirations to be approachable

Hence, a "fashion marketplace" - a humble boutique that consults you. We are passionate and just as ambitious.
 

So your boutique is more than just a retail location right? How would you explain as to what you offer customers?

Romeny: Yes! Our team are all artists and stylists. Every woman is different, so we make it an intimate experience...

Along w/ our high-end collections, we have @BECCA_COSMETICS - and so, we offer image consultations and lessons

Once women know that we embrace the many magnitudes of woman, there's no questioning our integrity of services
 

I understand that you are a perfume specialist. Explain how you can help women in this area.

Romeny: Olfactory love. We carry Nasomatto and Boadicea. Men and Women leave here in a silage of sentiment!

I had to make sure our lines were unisex. There's such an art and intimacy in finding the right scent....
 

Lastly, what are some of the brands that you carry in womens fashion in your boutique?

Romeny: To mention just a few, we carry: Darling, WinterKate, Love Sam, Darling and Saivana.

Items from Pendleton, Nasomatto and A Peace Treaty are unisex! And, our full cosmetics line : @BECCA_COSMETICS
 

Thank you Romeny for your time and comments today! See @MNMOstyle's article for more details - http://www.minnesotamonthly.com/media/Minnesota-Monthly/December-2011/Suburban-Chic/

Romeny: It was a pleasure!

Follow @MNMOmag and #MNMOtv for weekly interviews conducted via Twitter.

MNMO Twitterviews are led by @JoelECarlson of Sociability, a social media consulting services and community management company in Minnesota. He is very active in the social media community and has conducted over 300 Twitterviews with people like Elizabeth Ries and John Hanson of Twin Cities Live, Frank Vascellaro of WCCO-TV, Genevieve Gorder of HGTV, and Rebecca Jarvis of CBS' The Early Show. He truly enjoys connecting with new people and places and sharing their story with others.

Twitterviews generally last about an hour and consist of 10-15 questions. With only 140 characters per tweet, guests may use anywhere from one to five tweets to answer, and are encouraged to look up key Twitter handles before their interview, that are relevant to their lives, and then incorporate in their answers. Using the #MNMOtv hashtag in every question and response is important so that the public can easily follow the interview live.

In the “Search” or “# Discover” box of Twitter, type in #MNMOtv and then hit enter. A list of tweets using this hashtag will be displayed. Next to tweets there will be a highlighted tab that says “top” or “all.” Click “all.” This will then create a seamless stream that will display the Tweets in the correct order as they are posted.
