Q: How were you approached about collaborating with Steve Madden.
A: I received an email from someone at the PR team at Steve Madden and they invited me in for a meeting to "meet the team". I was in shock with Steve was in the meeting. I wasn't sure if it was actually him at first. I was thinking is this THE actual "Steve"? Because he was so laid back and approachable. They were like "we have this idea?" and I was like "Tell me more..." The project was really love at first sight, sometimes you just have that creative connection where you know “this is going to be great.”
Q: What was your inspiration behind the collection?
A: I really wanted to design something that would represent my personal style and the type of woman I stand for- strong, sexy and independent. For the girl who knows you can make an outfit come to life with just a killer pair of shoes. I asked myself, “If I could have any dream shoe in the world what would it look like?” and through this collaboration I was able to make them come to life.
Q: What is your favorite pair of shoes in the collection?
A: The Venice boot! It's a lace up bootie with open peep toe. Sexy, edgy and fun!
Q: Do you have any other collaborations in the works?
A: Yes I'm currently working on my own line with my best friend Caroline, she's the great grand-daughter of the iconic Diana Vreeland so you know that between the two of us it's going to be epic. We can't say too much about it yet- but it's on the horizon.
Q: What would you say is the key to being a successful blogger in a climate where there are so many?
A: Find something that stands out and never give up! I worked on my site every day for a good 2 years before I ever really saw any recognition for it.
