"When I work with clients or anyone who comes into my office, I tell them, 'You need to do it your own way. You need to feel good in your own way. Don't come in thinking that I'm going to tell you what I want you to wear. I want you to make it your own.' I've been so excited just to see, living in New York, walking around and seeing what everyone's style is right now. And I've just been seeing some great sort of half mix athleisure, half mix dress-up. During this time where we're just leaning into things that make us feel good. And I think that there maybe was a tendency in times past to dress or to buy things or depend on things to impress other people. And I think that for me, it's always been about personal dressing and feeling good about yourself, and buying it because you love it and you need it. And hopefully this moment in time has reprogrammed us a little bit too. Even when I'm online shopping, I'm looking at, what do I really love, what's going to make me happy at this moment. Whether it's a dress-up item or a sweatshirt. What's going to bring me joy? I think that's a good thing."
