Describe your style in one word.
Fickle: I change it all the time

What is your best-kept fashion secret?
I don’t keep secrets – I share them with you on my blog – but my favorite fashion trick is skin tone shoes when wearing skirts and dresses. Always match your shoes to your skin – it makes your legs look longer.

What are the five fashion essentials every woman should have in her closet?
1. A white shirt
2. High heel sling back pumps that expose toe cleavage and match your skin tone
3. A camel-colored pencil skirt
4. The perfect work dress
5. A black cocktail dress

Who is your style icon?
Living: Candy Pratts Price, Carine Roitfeld, Elizabeth Saltzman WalkerDeceased: Diana Vreeland, Jackie O, Babe Paley

What is the biggest fashion mistake a woman can make?
Leaving the house looking like a slob. You never know who you will bump into.

What is your favorite outfit?
Haven’t found it yet but I am still looking

What is your favorite way to accessorize?
Wide elasticized belt, or tons of cuffs, or huge earrings, or piled on beaded necklaces. Never all together.

If you could give women a fashion tip to be fabulous what would it be?
Feeling fabulous is 99% confidence and 1% lip-gloss. Always take 5 minutes to add make-up or an extra accessory that doesn’t have to be there.
