Each week, Sunday Life quizzes a prominent person about their style and the inspiration behind it. Ahead, contributing editor Georgie Gordon chats to author Lisa Taddeo.
Lisa Taddeo: “I don’t follow trends. There’s so much from years ago that I like as much, or better, than anything new.”
How would you describe your style?
I have two styles. One is my ideal, the bohemian floral look that I manage maybe seven times a year. And then there’s what I actually wear every day, which is overalls or coveralls. I’ve loved gorgeous floral dresses with boots since the ’90s; I’m a big fan of Doen. When I lived in a city, especially in LA and New York, I was more concerned about what I was wearing. [Lisa lives in rural Connecticut, USA.] Now, I like to be as unencumbered as possible. And I definitely wouldn’t wear slippers out of the house as much as I do if I didn’t live in the country.
