I love both real and fake jewelry. My kids make me necklaces, and I wear those, too. Every day, I wear my gold wedding band and the Cartier watch my husband gave me.
-
Estee Lauder was my grandmother. She was an iconic and powerful woman, but to us, she was just Estee. She was the first person to teach me how important it is to be passionate and proud of what you do, and always talked about 'balance.'
-
In terms of pots and pans, I just use the basics - I'm not a snob like that.
-
I like to entertain at home, to live beautifully but comfortably.
-
I have a lot of staples in my wardrobe. I love to pair a silk or lace blouse with a fitted black pant. This combination feels effortless yet put together.
-
I inherited my love of gold jewellery from my grandmother.
-
I have a dual role as founder of AERIN and Image and Style Director of Estee Lauder. So work is a bit of a juggling act.
-
I have always loved beauty and fashion. Some of my earliest memories are of being surrounded by fragrances and lipstick samples.
-
I'm a very visual person, and I love opening beautiful books on art or design and looking through them.
-
I wash my skin with Re-Nutrive Intensive Hydrating Skin Cleanser, no toner, and follow with the range's Re-Nutrive Intensive Age-Renewal and Eye Creme.
-
I love Pilates, I really do, and I do it three times a week because it works well for me.
-
I've always liked simple. Growing up, I wore corduroys and Lacoste shirts, Maraolo flats, and maybe one gold bracelet.
-
I leave work by 6:30 P.M. so I can spend some time with the children. Inevitably, we'll end up watching basketball or football. I live in a house of boys, and they're all sports mad, so I don't stand a chance.
-
Luxury is anything that feels special. I mean, it can be a moment, it can be a walk on the beach, it could be a kiss from your child, or it could be a beautiful picture frame, a special fragrance. I think luxury doesn't necessarily have to mean expensive.
-
I've always been inspired by beautiful interiors.
-
You could say that I am the Estee Lauder woman. I'm a working mother; time is valuable to me. I want a good product; I want quality.
-
I think every woman should be using a foundation, whether it's liquid or compact.
-
I used to be a shopper before I had children. I'd go to Bergdorf and Barneys all the time. But now my weekends are spent differently. I go to the skating rink or the park, not the stores.
-
My mother taught me that it is important to be prepared for a last-minute polish.
-
I discovered I was passionate about the creative process, the product development, creating a concept around a fragrance or lipstick.
