We have to start assess our careers for the versatility factor. Can our baseline transcend job title, organization and even industry? While we like to focus on the granular metrics, this is a broad scope we can get behind. After the rant, we are joined at the roundtable by Orly Shani, fashion entertainment and DIY extrodinaire! Her career path is so interested and her success is one worth charting. Orly started her first line as a teenager – Orly Couture; a one-of-a kind collection made from reconstructed vintage. The line was born out of Orly’s love of the fashion she was seeing in her favorite magazines but the inability to afford any of it. In 2010, Orly started tuc+wes, a colorful collection of convertible t-shirts. It was based on tuc+wes that Orly was chosen as a designer on the hit NBC reality competition show “Fashion Star.”  For the show, which aired in the fall of 2012, Orly focused her work on the principle that all women should have quality, multi-functional garments at a great value. She moved on as a style contributor for Hallmark’s Home & Family, E! News and The Today Show on NBC.

She has guest hosted numerous shows for E! Including Fashion Police, Live From The Red Carpet, Live From Fashion Week and Live From E!

In the spring of 2014 Orly co-hosted her own show on the E! Network, The Fabulist. Now she is on Hallmark’s Home and Family and runs her successful youtube channel focusing on DIY projects. She has used her baseline to grow and evolve through industries with the grit and tenacity we should all strive for.
