I am just a curious gal who is continuing to be curious.

My mother handed down all these amazing scarves from the sixties and seventies, and I have a hundred of them.

I've never seen most of the fashion reality shows. The only one I've seen is 'Project Runway,' which is great, but I don't watch television.

Whether you're going to a museum or a flea market or flipping through a book, always be on the lookout for something special.

I'm not the bake-sale-mom type - though once in a while, I'll make challah French toast for my sons.

Informed clients are better clients, and they make for better design.

Everything I commission - whether it is for me or for a client's home or for a hotel or office - is absolutely unique to that job. I have everything made, or I find vintage and antique pieces at markets and auctions.
