My final guest of the "On looking forward to 2013" series is the lovely Princess Deena Aljuhani Abdulaziz. Princess Deena is the founder of D'NA, a specially curated, members-only fashion boutique in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia that offers a selection of international brands while providing a space for stimulating cultural projects. When I first met Princess Deena in NY during fashion week, I was surprised that she even knew who I was. I mean I can't imagine how many faces and names she has to remember as part of her royal duties, not to mention all the retail players with whom she does business with to stock D'NA. Really impressive! I was even more impressed by her wit, charm, and of course by her enthusiasm for fashion and style. To see what's on her radar for 2013....
What did 2012 teach you?
Patience and more Patience ... And how amazing it is to make new friends.
Three words you would like to use more often in the New Year.
Keep your options open.
