Name: Caroline Vreeland

Age: 32

Hometown: Belvedere, Calif.

Now lives: In a one-bedroom apartment in the Boerum Hill neighborhood of Brooklyn.

Claim to fame: Ms. Vreeland, the great-granddaughter of Diana Vreeland, the storied Vogue editor, is a singer-songwriter and multi-hyphenate fashion darling, so on-trend that she even has a fan site.

She credits her cross-disciplinary following to a host of pesky habits, mainly spaghetti, wine and body positivity. “I’ve written four full albums and never put anything out,” she said. Now, she added, her music is “rising to the surface.”

Big break: After high school, Ms. Vreeland moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in music, waitressing and tending bar between stints in the music world (including singing background for the band 30 Seconds to Mars).
