I find inspiration in runway styling and magazines, but never copy or follow anything. I am not the type to buy something because some celebrity does, but I could use that to promote my business.

Q: Do you have any fashion rules when putting an outfit together?
A: I am opinionated about how clothes should be put together. I cannot understand why women do not try to know their bodies and dress that body instead of the one they wish they had.

No real rules as long as it looks good on you.
