I'm one of six children. I'd love to sound educated and say I dive into a good book when I'm there, but in truth, I spend time with the kids playing cards, ping-pong, and board games.

I'm a big list maker. But if I cross off too many tasks and it's hard to see the remaining ones, I have to start a new list.

In order to lead a fascinating life, one brimming with art, music, intrigue, and romance, you must surround yourself with precisely those things.

If you're honest and fair as you can be, not only in business but in life, things will work out.

In the same way that men wear ties to add personality to their clothing, so too should women wear their accessories.

I did not go to fashion school. I arrived in New York in 1986 from Kansas City and was working as accessories editor for Mademoiselle Magazine. While working at Mademoiselle I noticed that the market lacked stylish and sensible handbags, so I decided to create my own.

I adore pretty things & witty words.
