“OK, what have I been doing all day today? First of all, thank you guys so much for all your sweet social media messages. It’s meant so much to me. These are good times for everybody and good times for one of my favorite organizations, Housing Works,” she said. “This is what I’ve really been doing all day. I have Jimmy Choo, Christian Louboutin.
