Do you have a style icon you look to for sartorial inspiration?
"I think my style icon is the world, if that makes sense. I'm a people-watcher, which I hope is less creepy than it sounds...I feel like I'm always passively taking in whatever's around me, and if I see something cool, whether it's on someone across the street or some sort of pattern on a building or wherever, a mental bell goes off and I'll make a note about it."

What's one thing we'd never see you wearing?
"Underwear. Just kidding. The real answer is a probably a shapeless, boring pantsuit."

What gets the most rotation in your work wardrobe? What piece should every working girl own?
"Unless we're exhibiting at an art fair, where I basically wear non-stop black, I have to say that high-waisted jeans, both skinny and straight-leg, get the most rotation in my work wardrobe. They work for every season, and look good with just about every length and style of top, from oversized sweaters to cropped tanks.

As far as the item every girl should have in her work wardrobe, I think a well-tailored black blazer is a must-have. It goes with pretty much everything and makes even the most casual outfit seem professional — even a pair of high-waisted skinny jeans and a crop top."
