While you find yourself in the middle of Spring cleaning, try to give old accessories new life. Have old strands of pearls? Simply fold the pearl strands in half, attach with matching thread to some wide grosgrain ribbon and voila, instant update.
I constantly desire to learn new things—about design, the world or myself. I believe passion is key when it comes to doing what you love. I happen to love, love design and fashion, amongst an array of other things, but those two are at the top of my list. I am not afraid of color—to use, wear, design or decorate with. I receive too many magazines, but I adore scouring through each and every page. I try to find inspiration all around me—the world is full of it. I collect vintage hankies, scarves, hats and photographs and in my spare time, I am learning how to sew, knit and how to master the lost art of embroidery—basically trying to become a domestic goddess. The world truly fascinates me and I live by the quote, “Keep calm and carry on.”
