The Interview — Elizabeth Dehn

Patience, my dear. If you’re too anxious about the future, you’re going to miss out on the good things that are right in front of you. 

For industry events, I have an amazing black silk jumpsuit. It’s gorgeous and classic but totally unexpected in a sea of jackets and LBDs. 

This time of year I don’t go anywhere without a bronzer for midday touchups. I’m all about a faux glow. 

Even if stripes were to fall out of favor, I’d continue to wear them—and decorate my house with them. They’re timeless. 

I discovered CND Shellac in Lobster Roll this summer. It’s a perfect poppy mix of red and pink that goes with everything. 

I could live on Thai food alone. We get fresh spring rolls and pad thai or a curry at least once a week.

I put hot peppers or red pepper flakes on just about every pizza. Spicy makes everything better. 

I’ve been on a Campari kick for awhile, so a Negroni or an Americano (the drink, not the coffee, though I like those too).

I get excited about just about everything, big or small. It could be a donut Friday in the office or a cute face my dog is making, and chances are I will make a scene.

I’d still be a lifestyle editor. Storytelling, pretty things and smart, creative people bring me joy.
