Working in a salon, you look at trends all day long. You're looking at color all the time, what new products are coming out. You're a part of the fashion industry, especially if you're working in a higher-end salon.

Well I am from Annapolis Maryland. I went to High school in Baltimore, but I grew up in Annapolis. It was a cute town. We lived on a waterfront community. It was good, even though I don't really fit the preppy boater kind of style.

You've got to look at the timing. But Mrs. Michelle Obama. Gwyneth Paltrow. Zendaya. Those are women who inspire other women's style for sure.

I'd rather buy clothes then buy a bed

I think everybody needs a little bit of Minnie in their wardrobe.

I think Zendaya Maree Stoermer Coleman moves product well. We love her! That pink suit she wore of mine sold very well.

The gays like 'Project Runway' because it's a fashion, and the gays are into fashion and into design. It's a creative industry, and most of the gays are pretty creative, in general. That's just like the culture. We're not all into politics necessarily. We're more into the creative environment. I also think Heidi is a big draw. The boys love Heidi and think she's so fabulous. I just think it's a glitzy, fun show, and there are also always lots of gay boys on it, and, you know, that's fun.
