Westfield North County (WNC) is welcoming the back-to-school season with its ‘Unlock the Fun’ fashion event, helping teens and tweens “unlock” the hot styles and trends for the new school year. San Diego-based national style expert Jennifer Rosson, founder/owner of Style Your Life and an elite Stylist For Hire hand-picked by “What Not To Wear's” Stacy London, will be on-hand to offer her personal styling tips. As a part of Westfield’s exciting back-to-school style campaign, shoppers will also have the opportunity daily to unlock an interactive locker display for exclusive deals, with the chance to win exciting prizes including an iPad Mini, gift cards and concert tickets to some of the hottest acts in music today.
At WNC’s complimentary ‘Ask A Stylist’ station, Rosson will share everything there is to know about the hottest back-to-school trends for tweens and teens, including awesome 80’s, mixing prints and patterns, and military-inspired styles. For the ultimate first day back to school, Rosson will create stylish looks from items available at many of WNC’s most popular retailers. Shoppers will also have the opportunity to ask Rosson for customized style tips and receive answers to their most pressing personal styling dilemmas. The “recipe” for each of Rosson’s recommended looks will be sent directly to their mobile phones to reference as they complete their back-to-school shopping.

To complete shopper’s back-to-school looks, additional complimentary “Unlock the Fun” attractions will be located throughout the mall.
