Manners and Other Matters
5. The Art of Stylish Gifting with Christine Simmonds
In this episode, I have the pleasure of chatting with my dear friend, Christine Simmonds, a woman of refined taste and a wonderfully global perspective on style. Christine's life has been a fascinating journey of creativity and multicultural experiences.
Having worked internationally, including as a senior manager for Christian Dior in Indonesia, Christine shares insights into her creative process and how her travels have shaped her sense of style.
The episode unfolds into a discussion about the art of gift-giving, where Christine's meticulous approach to wrapping presents becomes a canvas for cultural awareness and sustainability. As we explore her unique gift-wrapping techniques, it becomes evident that for Christine, each gift is a personal story, a connection woven with threads of empathy and consideration.
Join me in this episode, where elegance is shown to be not just a style but an attitude, and every gift an expression of thoughtfulness and understanding.
