When you ask women what's the one thing they wish they had more of, they always say time.

Luxury is anything that feels special. I mean, it can be a moment, it can be a walk on the beach, it could be a kiss from your child,or it could be a beautiful picture frame, a special fragrance. I think luxury doesn't necessarily have to mean expensive.

I always loved beauty and accessories, and it's always something I was passionate about.

One summer I worked at Estée Lauder, and I really enjoyed the whole creative process.

I think talented people are priceless. And I think people that are knowledgeable and experienced - and I think there's a balance of new talent and experience, which makes, I think, Estee Lauder really special.

People love buying into a lifestyle and an overall concept. So when they buy a shell-colored lip gloss, they can also buy shells for their house, as well as sunglasses and [items in] other categories [in that shade] to create one consistent image.

Beauty is my heritage, but home decor is very much my passion.
