We focus on the best, fun, and happy things, and people want that. Being happy never goes out of style,
I didn't set out to be unusual or different. I just wanted to do things my way.
Not always sunny, but always in a sunny state of mind
Wear pink and make the boys wink.
Being happy never goes out of style.
That's what life is all about: Let's have a party. Let's have it tonight.
I am a believer that color affects people's moods.
Anything is possible with sunshine and a little pink.
I was a gypsy, living a carefree life of ponies and tennis.
Seeing Michelle Obama's bright color choices, and how she made people smile and reinforced Obama's platforms of hope and change, was inspiring.
I designed collections around whatever struck my fancy ... fruits, vegetables, politics, or peacocks!
It’s always summer somewhere.
