I tell girls all the time that the men that have fallen in love with me, have all fallen during a man repeller stage funny how life works out like that.

There's a beauty in that innocence that comes from not knowing. It allowed me to take a lot of risks and I took them because I chose a company in a field that I love. So for me, it didn't even feel like working.

A person's life is of their own making, and I take full responsibility for mine.

The beautiful 1940s women were a strong influence for me.

My first job was in retail at the age of 14, and I have worked in the industry ever since.

Because my business life is so busy, my home is really my sanctuary. That is where I reflect and spend quality time with my girls.

I think that a woman wears so many hats, we have so many aspects to us that we're not just one thing. We represent so much within us and that kind of comes across for me as a designer through mixing prints and colors.
