A Quote by Anna Quindlen
You realize that these accidental decisions you make about changing jobs, about moving into an apartment where you make new friends and confidants, about going to one city over another, that sometimes they're completely arbitrary decisions that you haven't put as much thought into as perhaps you should have, and yet they change the course of your whole life.

Any time you do something, you make decisions about time and space. I wanted those decisions to be out of my hands. I could be dragged, carried along by another person, I could be a receiver.

I could make the ultimate decision that my space is going to change now, but I don't know where it's going to go.

It is as much psychology as commerce.

It's important for us to understand how fashion works and how we connect to it.
