Kelly Wearstler

My motto in life is 'Take risks;' you don't have a voice if you don't. You have to venture outside your boundaries. That's what life's all about.

I'm a designer, which includes interiors, architecture, fashion, furniture, and lifestyle.

There is a voice, and there is a DNA to how I design.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

I really like Jeff Lewis and 'Flipping Out' and 'Interior Therapy.' I don't know why I'm obsessed with American real estate and renovation.

I literally in the New York flea market - just when I was despairing of ever having a great serendipitous find - found a 1926 Chanel.
