Because what the fashion industry loves, it woos - then swallows whole.

I'm not a vintage/thrift shop girl. I don't have the patience.

I do think younger women have to figure out how to combine their own sense of style with what is appropriate and authoritative. Some young women think there's no reason why they can't wear flip flops in the office in the summer because their accomplishments should exempt them from a stodgy dress code.

I am a thorn in the side of designers.

I like some of the oversized silhouettes. It's a nice change and exudes ease. Also like the upmarket street wear. It's fashion that reaches people where they live but looks polished.

I get enough fashion news in my professional life. I like interiors during my downtime.
