I have found my new fashion role model - Lisa Kline, owner of boutiques and Lisa Kline Inc. When asked where she got her knack for business she replies, " I just followed my dreams" (www.lisakline.com/about).  LA native, she already knew all the savvy it locations to shop and listened solely to her intuition when deciding her flagship location on Robertson Blvd. Her intuition serves her well, she has a loyal celeb clientele base ranging from Lindsay Lohan and Jennifer Aniston to Eva Longoria and Liv Tyler.  Her drive and passion for fashion is what allowed her to make her dreams a reality. " I was determined to open my first store by the time I was 25" (www.lisakline.com/about). Setting a goal and doing all to achieve that goal is what is needed to pursue such a vision. Her vision did not begin in her twenties, Lisa talks about how she has been putting her vision on paper and in her mind since she was a young girl. Just like me. Her advice to anyone who wants to start their own business or store is the passion from within. "You  have to really want it" Lisa says. Being successful is about character - you have to have the passion, the emotional stamina, and the vision. It is important to be a leader, follow your own instincts and your own ideas. Be one of a kind. Once you are given the tools to succeed, use them, you know what is needed. A wonderful person and a successful business owner that has created her own empire and fashion cult, no wonder she is an amazing role model to young girls and young women alike that want to follow their dreams and listen to their own instincts.  Work it!
