Thanks Aerin!

Big thanks to my style and business idol Aerin Lauder for including me on her list of twitter accounts to follow during fashion week! I love being sandwiched between NY1 Weather, very important to follow when getting dressed each day, and legendary fashion designer Michael Kors.

While I might have complained about the weather in LA recently on twitter, I try not to complain about anything during fashion week (except maybe when someone steals my seat) because I know a million girls (and a few boys) would kill to be there. The fun starts for me on Wednesday afternoon and runs though February 14th if you want to follow along too. 

You can check out the full list of "ten social-savvy industry insiders and the Twitter and Instagram accounts that, in addition to @voguemagazine, they love to follow" here.

It's Hip to be Square

I was worried that the Wall Street Journal Magazine wouldn't continue to excite after editor in chief Deborah Needleman decamped to T magazine.  Luckily, the November Special Innovators Issue I picked up today didn't disappoint. I especially loved reading more about Twitter and Square founder Jack Dorsey.  You can read the entire story here but it was his journal pages that really inspired me.  I'm always busy but I wonder if I could be working smarter.  It's also easy to get discouraged by nasty comments and rude emails.  Jack Dorsey's "field notes" are a reminder to keep my eye on the prize while always striving to do the right thing.

High Point Here I Come

I'm off to North Carolina today for the High Point Furniture Market.  You can follow along in real time on twitter and instagram as I scope out the showrooms for the chicest new pieces for the home.  I'll also be posting while I'm away so you won't be left alone.  If you're at High Point, I hope you'll stop by my book signing for Creativity at Work on Sunday too! The book won't be released until October 30th so this is your chance to snag an advance copy!
