Erin Flaherty is a former Jane magazine Senior Editor/Beauty Director, and has waxed philosophic about sex, beauty, fashion, pop culture, travel and art to publications such as Allure, Elle, Marie Claire, Details, ID, Page Six Magazine, Men’s Fitness, Shape and Ladies’ Home Journal to name a few. She’s been a talking head on VH1, Full Frontal Fashion, E!, a bunch of random news and radio shows, and quoted as an expert in WWD, The New York Times and New York Magazine. If all of this sounds really serious, please keep in mind that her hobbies include freestyle Frito pie making, traveling the far reaches of the globe to learn about foreign beauty products, holding “beer tastings” at her house, and that’s about it. She lives with her boyfriend (he prefers the term, "domestic partner") and dog, Violet. Both of them are really, really cute.
