Our business is a very complex operation with various aspects – from manufacturing &amp; production and financing &amp; legal, to creative &amp; technology and retail operations. Handling so many diverse things and getting it all together into one platform is personally challenging and very satisfying. &nbsp;

What do you love most about your work?

Travel the world while you can before life happens.

One piece of advice you would give your 18 year old self:

<a href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/links/7170081/type/dlg/http://yogasmoga.com/tippy-toe-legging">The Tippy Toe Legging</a> from YOGASMOGA!

On Sunday, we’ll find you wearing:

A Red Dress. Red is my color of choice especially if I want to make a statement.&nbsp;

Your go-to power outfit:

Since I travel a lot, my lips get very dry. I can't live without my <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-luxe-lip-balms/">lip balm</a>!

The beauty product found in your bag at all times:

<a href="http://yogasmoga.com/namaskar">The NAMASKÁR Foundation</a>. Textile manufacturing businesses typically exist in the most economically challenged locations of the world; I created the NAMASKÁR Foundation as a means to give back to the communities I operate in.&nbsp;

Charity you support:

The Vanilla Meringue cake at <a href="http://www.mrchotels.com/">Mr C Beverly Hills</a>, Los Angeles. It is the lightest, fluffiest piece of cake I have ever had. Best with a scoop of lemon sorbet.&nbsp;

Your most recent culinary discovery and obsession:

House of Cards – drama, intrigue, scheming, adventure, power play – it has it all.

Your current Netflix addiction:

Madonna. She is still the best entertainer in the world. I wonder what dinner with her would be like!&nbsp;

Your dream dinner party guest:

Fictional short story writer – probably of thrillers with surprise endings. They would have to be short stories because I would probably not have the patience to write long ones!&nbsp;

Ahead, read our Q&amp;A with Nicole Trunfio, and keep scrolling to shop her Top 10 must-haves.Born and raised in Australia, Nicole felt an entrepreneurial calling from a very early age. She began her professional career as a model, working internationally with top brands and couture houses, an experience that allowed her to develop an interest in both the creative and business sides of fashion. Always honoring her creative spirit, Nicole studied jewelry making and went on to spend time working with various jewelers in New York City. After honing her design and technical skills, she launched her first brand, Trunfio Universe. In 2016, ERTH Jewelry was born—fine jewelry that's expertly designed and crafted for everyday wear. The customer is of the utmost importance, and ERTH allows for one to develop personalization and curation of their own distinct style and look. In addition, sustainability is a key tenet of the brand; all of the gold used is recycled, the stones are ethically sourced or repurposed, and packaging is optional.In addition, Nicole has built Bumpsuit, a chic alternative to maternity wear which she launched just after the birth of her third child. Starting as a base layer providing comfort and function, the brand has grown to include shapewear for maternity and postpartum support as well as dresses and separates.Follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/nictrunfio/">Nicole</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bumpsuit/">Bumpsuit</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cheftrunfio/">Chef Trunfio</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/erthjewelry/">ERTH Jewelry</a>, and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/erthswim/">ERTH Swim</a> on Instagram for more.</div></div>

Studying at Parsons, and the Fashion Institute of Technology, Sarah graduated with a degree in Accessories Design. After FIT, Sarah moved to Milan to obtain a graduate degree at Ars Sutoria, where she learned pattern making and mastered the technical aspects of shoe production. Sarah has gained significant recognition in the industry. In 2016, she was appointed to the CFDA, the association of America’s most prominent designers, after having been sponsored by Michael Kors and Zac Posen. Her press coverage includes Forbes “30 Under 30” and a 2016 feature in WWD, “Ten of Tomorrow,” which showcased the best new talent in the fashion industry, as well as regular coverage in Vogue, People, InStyle, Town &amp; Country and NY Times.
