I felt untethered in Los Angeles.

What we really believe in is high design at a low cost.

People are understanding what it means to really create a space that feels like a direct reflection of you and I think with brands like Living Spaces, you can really start to take those chances for the first time.

Incorporating travel, elements from different cultures and locales, is a great way to establish the overall tone and theme for a soiree.

When designing - whether it's a living room, event space, or tablescape - I always want guests to feel as though they are part of the experience.

Your kids want to know that you can see them and that you care and we're fortunate enough to be able to do that.

I've always loved creating things with my hands.

Artists have always been my biggest source of inspiration.

I never thought that I would be a parent and have kids. It is the layer to my life that I never knew I would need. You are around honesty and vulnerability every day - it's so good.

I like being with my husband.

We've always read to the kids, every night both kids get books. That's really important, and they love books. Our daughter is obsessed with reading and books, so it's really sweet. She has her own little personal library.

Always play with the size and scale of the items on your bookshelf. Stagger the heights of books, vases, and picture frames and try to group in odd numbers.

Books are always the best accessories to anything.

The spaces we live in should tell our story.

Fundamentally, I am all about finding interesting and authentic ways to incorporate nature into most of my designs.

In my opinion, there's not really a 'worst' flower; however, you do have to do some research based on the people whose space will hold the flowers. For instance, there are some flowers that are poisonous to have around kids or pets.

Break the rules - put a plant or a floral arrangement in a room that you wouldn't expect!

One of the best things to do with tablescapes in my experience, is really curating them with things that you've collected.

I like to set up bars at my parties so people can make their own cocktails and mix and match and teach each other different things.

My parents both flipped homes. A typical weekend for us was walking through model home units. I loved walking through interesting floor plans and seeing different design aesthetics.

When I was a kid I painted the walls in my room like 30 times!

I think it's really important to bring your own personality to the space you're in.

I always want there to be room for people to connect. That is so important, especially in an office.

I once hosted a dinner party where I had two guests with some serious food restrictions - one was vegan and the other didn't eat red meat... steak and fish were our dinner. Now I always serve family style with a variety of food groups - so there is something for everyone. Always ask your guests if they have any allergies.

The beautiful gift of my husband is that he saw me the way I've always wanted to be seen and there's something really powerful to that. When you find true love I really believe that that's what it is at its core.

My entire twenties were filled with decisions that make me think, 'You had to go there, huh?' But that's part of exploration and I think a lot of the most beautiful moments of my life and a lot of the most amazing things have come out of some of the most tumultuous times.

So many people move in with somebody and try to hold on to who they were before they were with that person and that's not what the space is about. You have to allow it to become the both of you.

There are so many moving parts to a wedding, and I, it turns out, am a bit of a perfectionist.

Having been married and having stood up in front of people and had my own wedding, I understand the importance of that ceremony and the choice that you're making to spend your life with somebody and tell everybody in your life why.

People want to create a space that feels like them - one that's deeply rooted in their personality. That's important. Your space is an opportunity to tell your story and showcase your experiences. That's why I think every material - down to your faucet - needs to serve a function and feel personal.

I am a huge fan of porcelain in kitchens. It's an easy, interesting material.

Your home is a kind of a reflection of your family, your life, where you're at, where you want to be, so I love to entertain people in it.

I'm the total organizer. Everything's got a system. It's in order.

My husband is so gregarious and open and funny and such a people person.

Rachel Zoe is all about timeless.

When I look back, there was obviously the arch of my creativity and when I was young, I used to go to open homes with my mother and I used to imagine how I could make the space better and how people would live in it.

I did everything, I thought I was going to be in marketing, then I thought advertising then I thought I was going to be an architect and then I was like 'you know what, let me just be a soap star!'

We are huge fans of T.J. Maxx at our house.

Not only as designers, but as creatives, we're all about the importance of creating that super chic space that feels like a million bucks without having to spend a million bucks.

I'm really proud of my partnership with Pottery Barn Kids.

When Nate and I got married, instead of flowers we had these quartz and rock crystals everywhere.

When freedom does not have a purpose, when it does not wish to know anything about the rule of law engraved in the hearts of men and women, when it does not listen to the voice of conscience, it turns against humanity and society.

The question confronting the Church today is not any longer whether the man in the street can grasp a religious message, but how to employ the communications media so as to let him have the full impact of the Gospel message.

Pervading nationalism imposes its dominion on man today in many different forms and with an aggressiveness that spares no one. The challenge that is already with us is the temptation to accept as true freedom what in reality is only a new form of slavery.

Violence and arms can never resolve the problems of men.

Consequently, theories of evolution which, in accordance with the philosophies inspiring them, consider the mind as emerging from the forces of living matter, or as a mere epiphenomenon of this matter, are incompatible with the truth about man. Nor are they able to ground the dignity of the person.

The Internet causes billions of images to appear on millions of computer monitors around the planet. From this galaxy of sight and sound will the face of Christ emerge and the voice of Christ be heard? For it is only when his face is seen and his voice heard that the world will know the glad tidings of our redemption. This is the purpose of evangelization. And this is what will make the Internet a genuinely human space, for if there is no room for Christ, there is no room for man.

Christ called as his Apostles only men. He did this in a totally free and sovereign way.

Without wonder, men and women would lapse into deadening routine and little by little would become incapable of a life which is genuinely personal.

Humanity, its dignity and its balance, will depend at every moment and on every place on the globe,on who man is for woman and who woman is for man.
