Reprintable Interview Questions – Fun & Quick Questions
What's you beauty routine?
I spend about 10 minutes getting ready to go out. I like very minimal makeup - I've never been a fan of foundation or that caked-on heavily made up look.
What's your shopping style?
I'm very decisive when I shop - I like to get in and out quickly. I don't spend time trying things on unless I have to, and when I do I know immediately if I like the item or not. Actually, nowadays I do a lot of shopping on eBay - you can get incredible deals on couture, bags and shoes.
Who are your favorite designers?
For clothing I adore Zac Posen - his designs are incredibly sexy and feminine. For a more classic look I like Ralph Lauren collection pieces. He has a unique style that is very elegant yet powerful.
What advice would you give to other young entrepreneur's to turn their dream into a reality?
Don't get discouraged. Starting a successful business takes more work than you think but it's doable if you have the will and determination to keep pushing yourself until you've reached your goal. Oh--and make sure you have a viable business plan that fills a gap in the market or is an innovative approach. Think everything out thoroughally.
Describe your personal style.
I like my finished look to say 'elegant' but still have a touch of personality. I'll pair a sexy Dolce & Gabbanna black velvet blazer with leopard lining with a silk top and a tight black pencil skirt to the knees, but I'll add leopard stilettos to rev it up a bit. I love great textures and fabrics. I'm addicted to cashmere coats and sweaters.
What has been the most exciting part of having your own magazine, ebooks and online portfolio company?
I love getting feedback from clients and readers. It's especially great when I get emails from people who have read my modeling ebooks (sold on NewFaces.com) and want to let me know how much it has helped them and how much closer they are to achieving their goals because of the e-book.
What makes you happy?
My two cats, who I rescued, have such cool personalities. They make me very happy. Spending time with my best friends and my family makes me very happy - what more could a girl want other than love!
What was your happiest day?
When I was 25 I bought my parents a sailboat. I spent my first couple years of life on a 42-foot sailboat. The plan was to sail around the Mediterranean and home-school, but my brother came a year later and it was too difficult with two babies in diapers, so my parents sold the boat. Almost since then I've wanted to give that back to them, so it was a happy day when I did.
Do you have a boyfriend?
No, but I'm looking!
