What is your current vice or trend or obsession?
I just finished the spring/summer 2010 line, all my energy is spent and my obsessions have been channeled there. I cant remember what they were!! Right now my main vice is going to the beach as much as I can.

What advice would you give to someone else trying to make their ideas a reality?
Learn what you can working for other people! Dont rush into starting your own line.
