Tweetable Quotes:
“You don’t always want to communicate with your words, I think that’s the cool thing about dressing and fashion and accessories: you’re choosing this thing that is immediately telling people what you’re about.” – Robbin Choi
“Truly, you’re not going to work with somebody who you don’t value their opinion or don’t inspire you, you are going to people that you trust and then they connect you with other people that they trust.” – Drew Ginsburg
