What with all of her consulting and at large roles, Nina Garcia might actually be out-collabing Target at this point. In addition to her day job as Marie Claire's fashion director, her night job as a Project Runway judge, and side gigs as style consultant at Target and Moda Operandi, JCPenney has just announced that Garcia will be the brand's new "resident Style Voice and fashion collection curator."

Says the company: "In her new role, Garcia will work closely with jcpenney’s merchandise and design teams to offer trend direction and insight into the Company’s exclusive apparel collections. Garcia’s style advice will be made available to consumers nationwide through a variety of in-store activations, digital initiatives, and social media chats throughout the year."

Or... you could just follow Garcia on Twitter, or Facebook, or her Tumblr, or her Pinterest account and get her style advice that way. Up to you.
