Favorite Shoe:
Hadleigh’s spring slippers. “They go with white jeans, blue jeans, shorts, slacks, suits, tuxedos, swim shorts. They’re awesome.”

Favorite Dallas Shopping Spots:
1. Hadleigh’s. “They’re the best. They merge classic and modern perfectly.”

2. Forty Five Ten. “They have brands no one else carries, and they kill it at high and edgy.”

3. Stanley Korshak. “They’ve been able to grow, but stay true to their designers’ visions and styles. They’ve gotten big, but stayed small.”

Favorite Spring Trend:
Double-breasted blue blazers. “So regal!!!!!!!”
