Meeting Tory Burch yesterday at U Penn

I had a really good time yesterday meeting Tory Burch at U Penn and listening to her story. She is a very down to earth woman with a sense of humor and has a good head for business. It's interesting to hear how people get to where they are in life. I definitely learned a lot about myself by listening to her.
Through the years, I have been fortunate enough to have come face to face and shake the hands of Bill Blass, a man that embodied confidence and a humble presence that was welcoming and relaxing. Oscar de la Renta, who's stature embodies that of grace, poise, and ultimate elegance. Carolina Herrera, a woman of class and sophistication with a manor of exquisite taste. Nicole Miller, an approachable and easy going woman with an appreciation for simplicity with an edge.
Lars Nilson, Michael Volbracht, James Gallanos, and Ralph Rucci...
I am honored to have met these fabulous designers, and I hope to one day be able to meet the likes of Tom Ford, Diane von Furstenberg, Catherine Malandrino, Valentino, Jean Paul Gautier, Alexander McQueen, and on and on the list goes...
I would love to meet all of the infulential designers of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
