I’m 55 and still alive!!! Ha ha! Seriously…I love being this age.

I’m a third-generation Houstonian.

La Mer face cream, Dry Shampoo and (does toilet paper count as a beauty product?), Carmex for my lips.

My Mom, who was just like Grace Kelly and had fabulous ahead of her time sense of style, and my Dad who loved fine fabrics and Italian suits – impeccable style!

Candy would rank number one probably…the dentist LOVES me!

Two things: “lf you’re not early…you’re late” and “It’s never too late to follow your dreams.”

Well, I have just finished producing three films the past two years. The first – Ass Backwards – premiered at Sundance last year and was released in theaters this past November. My second feature, titled An Unkindness of Ravens just finished its last edit and is being submitted to Tribeca and other major film festivals. My third and latest feature, Land of Leopold,  is a screenplay written by my son –  actor/writer Chris Pinkalla. We filmed it in Austin in late September. We’re currently working on the last edit and score and have submitted it to Tribeca, SXSW and other festivals. As far as designing, I took a step back this year to work on these films and I am currently  working on a small (5 piece) capsule collection for Spring.

Going to the movies!! I do it up- I go alone a lot during the week. I get popcorn and M&M’s and a Diet Coke. It’s how I relax.

I LOVE à bientôt! They have the best costume jewelry and handbags and gifts.

One Kings Lane, J. Crew, Who What Wear and also…l’m a Pinterest addict.

I never wash my face in the morning- my skin is too dry. I wet a towel with warm water and put over my face and wipe off. I use La Mer, Skin Medica, and Yon Ka products. I drink green juice with mangosteen in it. I just keep it simple.

Face cream, my dogs and Diet coke.

Not really. I’m pretty  fearless…unless you put me in a room with rattlesnakes!

Rancho Santa Fe, California

Well, it has to do with toilet paper hanging off the back of my dress at a cocktail party. I must have walked around for an hour like that until I noticed…and no one told me!!! Haaaa!!!

I’d be a detective.

Too many movies to count! Right now I’m in love with Land of Leopold.
