About Kate
Kate Connick is a New York based model who loves Haagen Dazs ice cream, sparkly nail polish, sneakers, watermelon and the beach.

Why Fashion & Modeling?
"My mom, Jill Goodacre, started modeling around my age and has done amazing shoots for Vogue and Cosmopolitan. She has incredible style and is naturally gorgeous. She works the "no make up" look better than anyone I've ever seen. Her style is classic, chic and she teaches me how simple can be better than overdone. I am a huge fan of her work with Victoria Secret and getting the company started with her modeling. She's inspired me tremendously and I look up to her daily."
A Day in the Life...
"I’m constantly going to casting with the sport and fitness division for Wilhelmina Modeling. In the past, I have modeled for Reebok, doing athletic wear shoots. Modeling not only teaches me to work hard and have thick skin, but it inspires me to workout every single day and eat healthy. While modeling full time, I have more time to go to Soul Cycle which is my absolute favorite workout."
Jackie
"My experience with Jackie has been incredible. I love coming home from a day at work and seeing my Jackie box on my doorstep. It is so bright, exciting and literally like sunshine, especially in the winter. I love the creativity, the design and the beautifully packaged clothing. It’s been so different every time. There isn't a single item that I haven't loved in my Jackie boxes!"
Her Stylist
"My stylist, Sabel, has been so kind. My favorite thing about Jackie is getting the personalized letters that she sends along with my monthly box. Every box is so personal. Sabel knows my style so well and I love what she picks out for me! Some pieces are items that I might not pick out on my own, but her personally chosen styles push me to incorporate new and different pieces into my look. She is so good at what she does. Sabel is always available if I have questions. I’m lucky enough to be texting her all the time. She is so great and encouraging!"
Her Jackie Must Have's
"I adore my black, Paige denim. They fit so well, almost like leggings. In New York, black is the chic thing to wear, so my Paige jeans are perfect. I love the Elizabeth & James, Howe sunglasses. I almost never take them off! The Liesbekind black, leather backpack that Sabel picked for me is absolutely perfect for city living. It goes without saying that I love that Jackie carries Free People. Each and every Free People item that I receive is an absolute must have!"
