Tamara Mellon
My motto is: feel the fear and do it anyway.
Tamara Mellon
Everyone in my office wears it all winter, it's our uniform because it's the easiest thing to wear.
Tamara Mellon
You never know. Down the road you can do a lot of product categories. But I think you really have to build your core first and for people to know you and respect you for that.
Tamara Mellon
I actually have more shoes than anyone will ever know.
Tamara Mellon
I don't believe in doing collections anymore.
