Spring 2012 Look Book Part 2: Black Market

March 22nd, 2012

Sonia wears Sex Panther.

After we wrapped up with Conveyor, we grabbed a quick bite with a long time friend, and then it was off to West LA to visit Black Market.  We caught up with Sonia and Spencer, both long time employees.  Check out the photos and the Q&A we did with both of them.

Akomplice: How long have you worked here?
Sonia: 2 years

Akomplice: Strangest customer in that time?
Sonia: Bai Ling Chinese model actress

Akomplice: Why?
Sonia: Just really weird. Whenever I ask her if she needs help she says she has never been to the store, but she comes in all the time.  Maybe all the prescriptions she’s on?

Akomplice: Who is your favorite celeb who shops here?

Akomplice: Who are some of the other celebs who shop here?
Sonia: Tom Hanks, Colin Hanks (Tom Hanks son), David Beckham, Jamie Lee, David Cho, and Kreayshawn

Akomplice: What was your craziest day on the job in those 11 years?
