Isn't Laura the chicest? I feel like a proud mom. Laura came to work for me right out of college when she was just a wide-eyed, pink-cheeked blondie. When I first saw her, I prayed she'd be smart and on top of things because, frankly I liked her outfit so much. She stepped off the elevator that day wearing a black leather, double breasted Phillip Lim jacket with a feminine ruffle at the bottom and pearl earrings. I loved the mix of hard and soft, boyish and girly. She was kind, polite and enthusiastic. Turns out she was brainy too, and I hired her the next day. Laura stayed with me all through publishing I Love Your Style, running Amanda Brooks Inc, becoming Fashion Director at WME and then at Barneys, until I eventually crossed the sea to live in England. She is now the Assistant Fashion Director at Barneys and I couldn't be more proud of both her accomplishments and her evolving style.
