You debuted your senior collection at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week S/S 2011 – what was the experience like?

In one word: surreal. In three: a great honor. I remember working in NYC in 2000 near Bryant Park and walking past the white tents in the chilly-city early mornings promising myself that I too, would be under those tents- as a designer. I

When it comes to incorporating leather clothing into my wardrobe, I prefer sticking to one or two pieces instead of making fashion blunders.

Even top-notch fashion houses prefer merging leather with laces, chiffons or satin to break the monotony.

The Question:

Dear Belinda,

One of my New Years resolutions this year was to visit the gym more often. I like working out but always feel self-conscious about the way I look especially in my old gym sweats. What cute gym outfit ideas do you suggest for a girl who wants to workout and look great while doing it?

Elizabeth J.
