Lesa is a mom with a successful modeling career under her belt, including Vogue covers, world travels, and that “less is more” style that comes from experience. When you’ve been around enough of the new season’s runway boots, you develop an eye for the eternally perfect ones that take you everywhere and go with everything, like her buttery leather Margiela ones that have a nail for a heel. As she says, “they are just rock and roll enough, without being over-the-top or losing any classic perks.” It’s hard to deny their classic, edgy power when worn with anything from a clean black dress to leggings to jeans. Lesa’s penchant for the understated brought on an interesting dilemma when iconic hairdresser Oribe convinced her to play with the color of her natural blonde locks. She discovered that when she was a redhead and dressed just a hint provocatively in garders and stockings, she would attract just the right kind of guy. However, as a platinum blonde in a similarly suggestive outfit, all of the “wrong” heads turned in the room. When Lesa gets a little frilly, it’s a state-of-the-art Martine Sitbon vintage blouse – the designer herself, like Lesa, is minimal and modern.
