In a world of Instagram influencers and fashion “it” girls, Rachael Russell Saiger is more than just a pretty face behind a social media screen. A Rhode Island native and current Miamian, this fashionista is the founder and president of Style Saves, a non-profit organization that aims to provide tools and supplies that empower a student’s journey in school. Style Saves has quickly become one of the Magic City's most beloved non-profit organizations, garnering the support of household names like David and Isabela Grutman, to its iconic Miami Swim Week 'Style Saves' swim show. Rachael, who started her career in the styling department of Vogue is now a total boss lady splitting her time between the non-profit organization and Miansai, where she serves as the fashion director of the jewelry brand.
