Adam Glassman, O Magazine’s Creative Director On Holiday Party Style
We caught up with O Magazine Creative Director Adam Glassman at the O You! conference in Atlanta and asked him how to dress appropriately for a holiday party…
What’s the quickest legal route to joy?
Spending time with my family. My nieces and nephew always know how to make me smile!
From O You:
What’s one thing that’s always overrated?
One thing? No way. How about (a) movie premieres, (b) Fashion Week, (c) benefit galas and (d) the Real Housewives franchise? How jaded do I sound? But, really, it’s all work… so the grass is always greener.
What makes you still?
Meditation – I can’t live without it.
What words do you live by?
‘The first time someone shows you who they are, believe them.’ – Maya Angelou
What’s the hardest truth to tell?
I am known for saying what your best friends won’t – but sometimes that’s hard for me too.
What makes a person fearless?
Confidence with a healthy dose of ego.
What do you ask yourself most often?
When in communication with others, I often ask mysel, ‘What is my intention while having this conversation?’
When/how did you last surprise yourself?
By losing so much weight when I was just trying to lower my blood pressure by changing what and how I ate.
What do you know for sure?
Everyone should have a tailor on their speed dial, and your tailor should be your best friend.
