MEET CHRISTOPHER.
Growing up as a Los Angeles native, Christopher knew from a young age that he was destined to work in the fashion industry. Beginning his career at Showroom Seven in fashion PR, he later transferred his talents to a brief editorial stint at WhoWhatWear. His site is the culmination of his three most valuable strengths – styling, blogging and DJing. Looking for an outlet to share his voice, Christopher began Gold & Guns where he reveals his fashion insights as well as style inspiration through his own outfits. He does it all with sass and his signature brand of crass humor, engaging his readers and making fashion funny so they continue coming back for more. Aside from showcasing his commentary and styling projects, Gold & Guns ties in Christopher’s love of music and DJing in each post. Fellow music aficionados will notice his post titles share names with songs that are under the radar and yet to be discovered. His shopping posts and product collages are inspired by the songs he’s currently playing on repeat and draws upon for personal inspiration. Just as mu-sic can conjure a certain feeling in a person, the outfits Christopher pairs up with songs are what he pictures the lead character wearing in the story told by the song’s lyrics and melody. Christopher is currently based out of the LA/OC area where he serves as a con-tributing stylist and market editor for medias such as PopSugar, It’s Super Fashion, and ELLE while taking on freelance projects that range from look book styling to red carpet celebrity dressing. More recently, he has landed a role as a contributing blogger for TimeOut Los Angeles, spreading his name and expanding his brand to a wider Angeleno audience.
