How did you become a designer?

I've been a knitter since I was nine. I followed this passion to Parsons School of Design in NYC. I've worked for many major companies as a knitwear designer and finally have launched a knitwear business of my own, liaMolly, which is named after my kids Liam and Molly. We’re based in the city that inspires me most, New Orleans.

What’s your inspiration?

Nature, art, fibers, yarns, patterns of all sorts for stitches. Coco Chanel, fashions past and present and New Orleans.

What’s your hometown?

New Orleans, LA but I am originally from Montreal.

If you had to pick a favorite design from your collection, what would it be?

The Thalia Dress because it is flattering on everyone, and you can wear it everywhere. I also like the Jacqueline Cardigan because it is so New Orleans.

What are you wearing right now?

I'm about to go to my studio on my Vespa, so aviator glasses, the Janette sweater from our winter collection, vintage jeans, and boots.

Miley Cyrus

We had so much fun tonight!

We got a suite at The Target Center with a group of mom's and daughters...one dad, for the Miley Cyrus concert. It was a fun night because the girls were so happy to be there, they had so much room to dance and walk around. Bathroom breaks were easy because they were inside the suite. I'm spoiled now...how could I ever see another show in regular seats???

The only thing that I wasn't so happy about it, was Miley's brother, who performed in the opening band. He had tattoos all over his body and declined wearing a shirt. He made mention that he was told to cover up but he wasn't interested in doing that even in a theatre filled with little girls who did not need to see that! When did I get so Conservative?

My little girl just got a bit older...the change is happening so fast!

Lola halloween picture

Lola's class drew pictures at school today about what they were going to be for Halloween this year. I love her princess dress...gotta have the purse. It looks like she's going trick or treating in a teepee.

Karate Boy

Josh is doing a great job in Karate...he is dedicated and seems to be interested. We are hoping that this becomes his sport and that he can go all the way. We thought it was a bummer that he has no interest in team sports but I guess that he's a team of his own.

Apple pickin...

Had the day off from school and we went apple picking.

Every year we go to the same orchard, pick apples, have hay rides, play with the goats and measure our growth from the year.

Breakfast with Nana

One of our favorite activities on weekend mornings is to go out for breakfast Bloody Mary's. We like them spicy and in low balls. I'm a big fan of olives and all of the other accoutrements added to my bloody party. Today we met Andy's parents at Oakridge...we had such a fun time eating and drinking but by 1:00 Andy and I were exhausted and took naps while the kids played downstairs.

Headphones

We watch movies on our car TV. Andy and I never wanted to be those parents but we realized that if we set rules to how much we let the kids watch we could teach them that it's a privilege and not a necessity or a right. Well...that's not how it's worked out!!! They fight, they scream, the first thing that Sasha does is say PLAY when we get in the car. Most of the time I let them just because I want to talk on the phone or listen to news (that'll be another post later). OK, I know I've become one of "those" mommy's, who would rather drive in peace and catch up on gossip. Please don't tell Oprah!
