Paperclip is all about style at work.
I am Edie Douglas Owen, this site's founder and
creative director, and I am fascinated with how
stylish individuals integrate their personal design
aesthetics into their work environments and attire.
Have you been distracted in meetings by someone's
bracelet or shoes? Have you noticed someone who
appears to be very organized and wondered how
they keep up with all of the details of their work?
I wanted a resource to discuss style in the
workplace and Paperclip is the result.
Paperclip highlights those that effortlessly
include their style along with their skills,
gaining productivity and organizational tips
as well. The site's photographer is the very
talented Aaron Dougherty. For more
information about Aaron, please visit

product or service as a great topic for the "memos"
page, please contact me:
Here I am inside Meredith Land's closet area which she calls "the nook." (This image was actually a lighting test shot for Aaron.) What does a closet have to do with Meredith's work? Well, read all about it in her profile.
