-How did you meet Mary Alice? Mary Alice and I met at a lunch. We were seated together and instantly became friends!
-How would you describe your style? My style changes. It really depends on where I am and what I am doing. I’m not afraid to try something new and like to have fun with fashion. I know it’s cliche but Kate Moss always looks great. Never too studied but always chic! All of my stylish friends influence me, women with families and careers who always manage to look amazing in real life and not just on the red carpet.
-What is your favorite classic piece you will never get rid of, and a new piece you are dying over?

-3 tips for staying stylish: Less is more. Invest in quality. Wear what suits you not what is trendy
-Top 5 things to add to your wardrobe: A great coat (I never took my coats off while I was in NY for Fashion Week), a colorful scarf (I feel like it instantly brightens your face), a medium sized clutch, a cropped sweater (not too short! Great for layering and wearing with high waisted pants and skirts), and lipstick!
