I heart New York. The only thing better than going to New York is going for design inspiration.

Charlotte Moss, my new hero, is a blogger and social media user in addition to being a famous design icon. She is loaded with class, authenticity, sophistication and charm. One of the best things about her is that she say’s it like it is; her direct approach is refreshing. We were fortunate to have the opportunity to learn from her at Design Bloggers Conference in Los Angeles last week – I am sharing a few takeaways [Read more…] about Raise the Bar on Blogging
