I feel prettiest when...
I finish a day of skiing with my husband.
If I were a magazine, I would be...
InStyle because they incorporate the practical and the fun sides of fashion.
I am always searching for...
the perfect pair of jeans and white shirt.
My favorite place to shop is...
all the exhibitors in the Rush Fashion Show, and that's why I get to pick them. I also love Handle With Care for things funky and diffrent to add to my wardrobe and I can share with my teenage daughter. I love J Crew for the basics.
The best beauty tip I ever received was...
getting micro-dermabrasion treatments and to moisturize all the time.
My favorite beauty product from my past was...
my blue Marilyn Miglin Eye pencil that I used to line the inside of my eyes. Very chic and 70s.
My most embarrassing beauty moment was...
freshman year in college. I recently saw a picture of me after Freshman year. Yikes the big hair and 10 extra pounds, all seeming to settle in my cheeks, was not a good look!
The last thing I do before I go to bed is...
check on my kids and yes… they are all teenagers.
I could never live without...
being a part of the Rush Women's Board and helping with the Fashion Show.
I could definitely live without...
carpooling.
I will splurge on...
a gift that will really surprise someone or make them extra happy.
I won't spend more than $10 on...
I don't like budgets and I don't like the word never unless it is to say you never know!
If I wasn't a Mom...
I would probably be a dancer, a ballerina.
