Victoria Robinette reclaimed her Charlotte roots three years ago, when she returned from journalism school in Chapel Hill.

Now, she’s taken the reins as style editor of Charlotte. She loves sky high wedges and cozy riding boots, pampering her two Yorkies, finishing sentences with “Seinfeld” lines, and putting everything on hold for Tar Heel basketball.
