What is your favorite Whimsy piece?

My favorite whimsy piece (of all time) is really hard to choose. Currently I wear the Stevie two tone cream set everyday. I love to pair the Norah pants with the Lennon Crop Top and the Lena top in Lady Print. BUT if I have to choose the one thing that's most versatile for my life is the Rachel Dress. Please bring her back in more colors! My current favorite style has to be the Eden Top in Mauve Floral, because it’s super flattering and makes me feel feminine.

Where did your sense of style come from?
I was raised in San Francisco and being aware of my surroundings, I cultivated a cosmopolitan city style.

What was your reaction to Rachel telling you she was starting Whimsy?

Well it was actually my idea! In my career I was an entrepreneur, I owned and operated a chain of hair salons called Total Concern. It's always been our family mentality to start our own businesses. So we encouraged Rachel to build her own.
