A brand can have huge hype but still only be a tiny business.

While my trips are most often focused on business, I always try to take some time to experience the local culture.

It's definitely an interesting question: 'Do you need more funding to start a luxury business?' That's something I want to think about a little bit more.

If someone is making a very expensive purchase decision, they typically have a lot of questions about the fit and about what to wear the item with. In some cases, they'll ask for additional images or want to contact the designer.

I try to keep my closet organized by color and category so that it's not only aesthetically pleasing but practical as well - it really makes getting ready so much easier.

I worked as President of House of Waris for a year and a half, and Waris is one of my favorite people. He is not only a talented designer but also a warm and genuine person and a pleasure to work with.

It is always a pleasure to see what NYC, London, Paris and Milan have to offer.

As I have written before, one of my favorite parts of my job as CEO of Moda Operandi is the opportunity I get to explore international fashion scenes to discover new talent, and then being able to introduce these designers to our community of fashion-savvy customers worldwide.

Moda Operandi will change the face of luxury e-commerce by directly connecting brands with the most discerning shoppers around the world.

I try not to take much time off for lunch, so I usually end up with a tossed salad from the local deli.

Daft Punk's 'One More Time' remains one of my favorite 'getting ready to go out tonight' songs.

There are so many women throughout the world who appreciate beautiful design and have the budget to buy designer fashion but sometimes have a hard time finding the things that they really want or that suit their lifestyle or their culture or whatever it may be.
