______________________________________________

Favorite Vacation Spot

By far, my favorite place to vacation is The Four Seasons on Maui!

Favorite Restuarant

Locally, my favorite restaurant is Malone’s.

Favorite Cocktail

Marcus Philips Shiraz is a favorite, but  I would also have to add Jalapeño’s Margarita.

Favorite Gift to Give

I like to surprise someone with something they have just mentioned or would like to have and are not expecting.

Favorite Designer

I love Roberto Cavalli’s designs

Style Icon

I always like to see what Halle Berry is wearing, she always looks amazing!

What’s in your Beauty Bag?

My beauty bag is complete with Philip Pelusi cosmetics and hair care which are offered at Seasons Salon and Spa

What is Style?

In my opinion style comes from within, one can truly express themselves through their choices of clothing, shoes, jewelry, and handbags.

What is your definition of True Luxury?

The ultimate luxury is staying in a five star hotel where the staff remembers your name and what you like, and has a view to die for. Luxury also could be having a vehicle that does everything but drive itself.

What is your most memorable moment since opening Seasons?

The most memorable moment for me since I opened my business would have to be when I was presented with Entrepreneur of the Year award, it was such a huge honor and something that I will never forget.

What do you love most about what you do?

I still perform services in my salon and it is so gratifying to make people feel better about themselves. I also enjoy providing opportunities for my staff that they would not get anywhere else in Lexington, such as going to Fashion Week in NY to do hair for runway models.

Advice for women entrepreneurs

My advice for women entrepreneurs would be to remember that we are built to be strong and never lose focus on what your vision is no matter what obstacles get in your way.
