Whitney started as a summer intern for Women's Wear Daily magazine and W magazine. In 2005, she landed an internship at Teen Vogue in Los Angeles. While working in their office, she was paired with another intern, Lauren Conrad. The girls became good friends and Whitney ended up starring as a lead character on the MTV reality show The Hills for four seasons. During the first two seasons of the show, she remained an intern at Teen Vogue, but was then promoted to the position of "Fashion Contributor' in the same company. Her promotion was featured on The Hills second-season finale. The show followed her to New York where she was interviewed at Vogue headquarters. The competition was tough, as Whitney had to compete with an acquaintance of hers, Emily Weiss, who had previously appeared on the show as an intern visiting from New York.

In 2007, Whitney decided to leave Teen Vogue for Peoples Revolution, a PR firm heavily involved in the fashion world. Owned by Kelly Cutrone, Peoples Revolution has offices in New York, Los Angeles and Paris. As Whitney was working at L.A. Fashion week, her good friend Lauren offered her help, and at the end of the episode was offered a position at Peoples Revolution, which she accepted. In March 2008, Whitney debuted her clothing line of cocktail and party wear called Eve & A.

In the summer of 2008, Whitney met Jay, an Australian musician, while in New York with Lauren for work. A short while after, Whitney was awarded an interview with fashion label Diane von Furstenberg for her efforts at Peoples Revolution. She was hired and said her goodbyes to Lauren and The Hills before relocating to New York. Her job at DVF has been featured extensively on her own reality show The City. On April 13, 2009, it was announced that Whitney had quit DVF and has since returned to Peoples Revolution.
