In terms of pots and pans, I just use the basics - Im not a snob like that.

So the idea of being able to shop cross-category to buy the beach bag, the summer lip gloss, and the pillows for your pool house makes it into very focused, easy life.

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

Mom used to frame everything we made, and now I'm following her example. It makes children so proud to see their work on display instead of hidden away. I figure if I take my children's work seriously, maybe they will too. And it reinforces the idea that art is not something alien and esoteric. Anyone can make art.

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

You always have to stay true to yourself.

When I took the job as Estée Lauder's creative director, the first thing I did was go into the archives! I love taking our heritage and making it modern.
