Name: Audrey Dettmar

Occupation: Pastry Chef and Blogger

Home: Brooklyn, NY

Story behind the name of her blog, Home Run Ballerina:"It's a quote from Mad Men. Peggy wins an account and one of the guys says to her, 'Home run, ballerina.'"

What she's wearing: Vintage Lord & Taylor paisley skirt; vintage slip worn as tank bought from a girl selling her wares on the street in Brooklyn; vintage huaraches purchased on Etsy; mom's belt from the 80s

Fave item in her closet: A SteveJ & YoniP dress she recently got on sale

What she'd never be caught dead wearing: "I think I can safely say stiletto boots and leopard prints will never be part of my look."

Top shopping spots: "I've had a lot of luck at the Dumbo flea market and recently purchased 3 pair of high-waisted old lady pants from Housing Works thrift store in Brooklyn.

Sites she surfs: "I'm a big fan of A Cup of Jo and The Glamorai but I also love non-fashion blogs such as The Post Family, Pitch Design Union and Glasses Glasses."

Sites she shops: Forward, Pixie Market, and Etsy

Fave designers: "I'm still learning. I love Geren Ford Buy Now, Marni Buy Now, Chloe Buy Now, and any vintage from the 50s and 60s."

Style icons: "Audrey Hepburn is not only my namesake but a huge inspiration fashion-wise; I also love Zooey Deschanel."

Her personal style: A mix of old and new -- "vintage shapes and cuts with bright colors and lots of crazy shoes."

Lingerie she loves: "The Lake & Stars Buy Now has an absolutely gorgeous line that I've been pining over for weeks."

Beauty buys: "I keep it pretty simple. I use M.O.P. hair products and Clinique Buy Now makeup--lots of mascara and not much else."

Free-time fun: "I'm going to culinary school full-time so I have very little free time; but what I do have is spent with friends for the most part - eating, drinking, seeing as much of the city as I can before I
head back to Chicago in a month or so."

Music she grooves to: Motown, old country music, indie rock, hip hop and some long-time favorites, including Belle and Sebastian Buy Now , Patsy Cline Buy Now , Dr. Dre Buy Now , and The Zombies Buy Now

Fave food and drink: Sushi and milk--not necessarily together

How she's reducing her carbon footprint: "I walk or take the subway just about everywhere. And as soon as I'm able, I'm getting a milkman so I can re-use the glass bottles."
