Speaker 1 (00:13):
So we are at Canton
Trade Day's Monday, and I'm just
really pumped to be here. I'vebeen here before. I know you
haven't, Shannon, the twinshaven't, Shay has. But we are
here because I love celebratingartisans, just unique, local,
curated, created things. I knownot all the things here are for
(00:35):
everybody, but what I think issuper unique is that I have two
super different kids.
Liliana, she wants to be afashion and design professional,
either interior or fashion orboth. And so she actually really
loves all of these not all, butseveral of these different types
of creators. Lewis, on the otherhand, I think it's he'd rather
(00:58):
choose shards of glass versusshop. But he's here again out of
support for me and out ofsupport for his sister, because
I really want her to understandwhat it takes to create a lot of
these beautiful things. A lot ofthe the floral that you see at
my houses, either in Dallas orthe ranch, I actually found the
(01:20):
creator here at Canton.
So the woman that does all ofour different arrangements comes
from trade days. And then Lilyand I are hopping on a plane on
Monday and going to New York.We're gonna be at Torrey Birch
corporate with my dear friendLucinda Castillo Cabazos because
she's high up in that chain. Soeither way, we're gonna be
(01:41):
introduced to that morestructured high fashion world
where that has more of a globalinfluence from that type of
creation. Then we're gonna bestopping by the Met where it's
truly the pinnacle of artisticcreation.
I love celebrating all differenttypes of creators. So you guys
get to join us for the ride.Okay. And at the end of this,
(02:02):

Speaker 1 (11:47):
Okay. So we are
wrapping up our time here at
Canton Trade Days, and I lovedit because I found some really
unique, gorgeous pieces. We'regonna get Lily and Lewis' honest
opinions as well. What are yourthoughts?
Speaker 2 (12:00):
We'll listen
Speaker 1 (12:01):
On a scale of one to
ten, one being the absolute
worst, 10 being the absolutehighest.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
You go. So ladies
Probably around 9.5.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Oh. That's
Speaker 2 (12:14):
high. That's pretty
high. Because the food was
great, and it wasn't very hot,so that was
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah. That's helpful.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Last time.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
It is. Was
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Yeah. But, you know.
And, I mean, other than that, I
love the designs to seeeveryone's creation and Mhmm.
What they do for a living. Yeah.
Interesting.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Yeah. Because people
make their livings out here.
It's cool. What about you,Papito? One to 10.
Scale of one to 10. One beingthe worst, 10 being the highest.
Honestly. Like a 2.5. Okay.
2.5. We'll take it. It's not aone. We'll take it.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Well, what's a normal
score? Generously generously a
four, but like 2.5. Okay. Butnormal store?
Speaker 1 (13:04):
One. Yeah. Okay.
Okay. So it's better than
regular shopping, which is cool.
Like, there's more to see, food.It's kind of a vibe out here.
How about you, Shay?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Like a fair. 10 out
of 10. Oh, yeah, miss Shay. 10
out
Speaker 1 (13:17):
of 10 with Shay Shay.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
A 100%.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
I know. I'm with you.
I'm with you.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Can I find things
like this
Speaker 1 (13:23):
and and not? Alright.
We love it. Yep.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
We'll wrap it up.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Bear, so happy you're
back here in the studio with me.
Yay. And we just landed just afew days ago. Mhmm. Right?
You're home from DCATS which I'mpumped about. And I have you
here because I want to hear someof your reflections because
people like me are the norm. Inever grew up with the
(13:54):
opportunity afforded to me to goto New York when I was 12 and
tour the Met, go to theGuggenheim, look at the
exhibits, much less shadow verysenior executives at or from an
organization and look at whatthat had to offer. So I want
(14:16):
other people to learn from yourexperience. Like whether that's
parents, kids, I think you justhave some perspective that's
pretty important to share.
So we went to the Met and wereable to see the current exhibit
and then, well what at the Metwas your favorite? Was it the
(14:38):
Sergeant at the end or was itsome of the items in the middle,
right pieces from China, DelftChina. Know you love those. Or
was it the actual fashionexhibit?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
I loved a lot of it.
Mhmm. Because I love to see all
the different designs and howmuch people put thought into it.
It's so wonderful. It'sinspiring.
Very. I really liked all thepaintings. Mhmm. All the
paintings. It was just littletiny details that make it just
so beautiful.
(15:15):
And it probably took so muchtime doing that.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
It did. And how do
you think that's different from
some of the artwork that we sawat Canton? Canton trade days?
Because we saw a lot of vintagepieces there, right? Is it that
different to you?
Speaker 2 (15:33):
No. I feel like it's
kind of all in the same time
period.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Uh-huh. A lot of it
was.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Mhmm. But I liked
about in New York, it was a lot
of fashion
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Mhmm. Paintings and
Oh yes. Sargent. That's right.
Because he did have a lot ofelegant women and their, yeah, a
lot of their clothing that hedrew.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Okay. So you like
that particular style. And what
stood out to you at theGuggenheim exhibit? Remember
where Rashid Johnson had hisexhibit in the rotunda? Mhmm.
Did you like it? Did you not? Ifso, why?
Speaker 2 (16:23):
It was very
interesting art. Like modern
art. Mhmm. Personally, I am nota huge fan of modern art. Mhmm.
But it made it really fun justto see everything that other
people create too.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Yeah. What about your
brother? Do you think he would
have liked it? Because he loves,Lewis loves modern art. You
don't think he would have likedit?
Speaker 2 (16:45):
He doesn't like Well
he likes some Salvador Dali,
right?
Speaker 1 (16:50):
He loves Dali. That's
his favorite artist. So yeah, I
think I could argue what you'resaying. We'll have to ask him.
Have to ask him what he thinks.
We'll show him some pieces fromthat exhibit and see what he
says. And then what about yourtime with Tori Burch? She was so
delightful to you. And what Iguess did you learn from her?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Well, what I learned
from her was she was very
particular. Mhmm.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
It's her brand. It's
her name.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Is. Yep. And she if
she would not enjoy something as
much, she would tell them. Andshe would say. Just honest.
Honest. Very honest with herpeople. Mhmm. Because she wants
it to be wonderful. Yep.
And she wants people to look atit and say, that's Tori's brand.
(17:45):
Mhmm. You know?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
And I have so many
different videos of you.
Whenever we were walking intothe store there and you were
just on fire. I saw it in youreyes, in your body language.
Were talk about inspiration. Youwere just overwhelmed with
happiness in that store.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
It was so pretty.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
It's beautiful,
right?
Speaker 2 (18:09):
It is.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
And just to see what
goes into one part, one itty
bitty piece of what is in thatstore. So whenever we went to
the Mercer store in Soho, thenew one with the Bon Bon
collaboration So pretty. Youlooked like you were on fire.
You were so happy. You werewalking around with your phone
(18:32):
in awe of so much of it.
Tell me what your favorite partsof that particular store were.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Probably the shoes
Speaker 1 (18:39):
are precious. The
shoes, yes.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Because there are so
many cool designs and so much
work put into it. And I love tosee everyone's enjoy of art.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Yeah, because it is
art. It absolutely is. And that
shoe, I guess it's not arotunda, but that space where we
were trying on shoes, it wasunique, right? What types of
feelings did you have when wewere sitting there looking at
the shoes? Because they'redisplayed like works of art.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I felt like this. I
want my shoe size to get bigger
so I can fit into the shoes. Oh,I want This one looks so pretty.
Oh, this one does has
Speaker 1 (19:23):
a really small foot
Shannon. Cute. She's small.
Yeah, she has a really smallfoot. She excitedly was almost
able to fit into the size five.
She was overjoyed at thatthought that she can finally
start wearing some cool shoes.And tell me about your thoughts
(19:45):
left with Miss Lucinda. Becauseshe is a senior exec at Fossil,
right? You see her and you'vealways known her as more of a
mother, right? Well, she is amother.
But you've always seen her inthat realm, right? In the
business aspects of her life.But you were able to observe her
(20:07):
there. Did she seem verydifferent to you? Not really.
She's very consistent.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Very loving just how
she is. Yep. But it's so cool
because I didn't really knowthat she worked on that.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
She's a boss.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
And I was just like,
you go girl, you know?
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Yes, yes. She's very
capable, very smart and just
really gracious to have everdonated that to the auction at
St. Rita. And we love ourschool, we support our school.
And then we're gonna be able toshow what that looks like
whenever her son Luke, she wasthe one that bid on your poppy's
(20:49):
donation to go shadow him for aday at his corporate
headquarters.
And I think Lewis is gonna betagging along with Luke at
Luke's request, which is cool.Many different successful people
in this beautiful city of ours,DFW, do donations of that sort,
(21:09):
right, to help raise funds forgood causes, whether it's cancer
or school or any type ofinitiative. And Tori Birch was
actually leaving that meeting togo to her foundation.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Really? I
Speaker 1 (21:26):
actually Yep, that's
why she did not want to be late
for that meeting because herfoundation work is super
important to her. So I thinksomething that I could leave a
lot of the viewers and listenerswith is that because so many
people who have the opportunityto make impact in this world
really work to prioritize givingback to a community. And I think
(21:51):
that's a really common threadand theme amongst many people
that we get to interact with. Sowe're very fortunate in that
respect. What else do you wantto leave with any kids who might
have the opportunity to listento this show or watch it?
Well If they don't have thatopportunity to go to New York or
(22:15):
whatever area or space theyUh-huh. And
Speaker 2 (22:25):
out there are people
who love fashion as well or
wanna be a designer. I'm just sograteful that I got that
opportunity. And I guess I justwanted to say that try your
hardest and even if like becausethere's some like really
(22:48):
talented art people. You canalways start with a little
drawing, know? Mhmm.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
A little drawing in
your home. And what I had to do
because I was so I'm basicallyspeaking to kids who were like
me. I did not have the luxury ofhaving the best examples up
close and personal to me. But Ireally worked hard to find
(23:16):
inspiration from the parentsthat surrounded my friends. I
told my friend Jessica wheneverI was in El Paso, your parents
were people that I looked to aspeople like I wanted to become
like.
Right? So I observed theirmarriage, I watched what held
their family together. So Ibelieve that any person despite
(23:39):
where they are in this world canfind beauty, inspiration in that
orbit. We didn't have access toeveryone's life and creativity
around the globe like you all donow. So kids, youth now has I
think access to a lot more thanI ever did.
(24:01):
So whether it's books and peryour suggestion if someone wants
to design, can start by drawing.They can draw beauty and
inspiration from many places,right? And I think it's always
easiest to start with people whoare somewhat close to you. And
even though my friend's parentsweren't my friends, I still was
(24:23):
able to observe and learn. And Ilearned a lot about what I
didn't want to do in my youth.
Lillie Bear, thank you so muchfor coming on here again. Thank
I love your energy, I love yourpositivity, your honesty,
especially over there. She wasvery capable of saying what she
enjoyed and didn't enjoydifferently herself if given the

you. So your sister was sittinghere, clearly we had planned on
her being on
Speaker 2 (25:06):
the show. Of course,
yes.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
But I wanted to
actually gather your insights.
So she said, she gave heropinions about what you would
think about this Guggenheimexhibit. Rashid Johnson was the
exhibit that we went to look atwhen we were there in New York.
Would you mind clicking on thatlink? Tell the audience your
thoughts about the artworkthat's being displayed.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
I think it's a lot
it's very different. Mhmm.
Unique. Mhmm. I love the ployins that are kind of like
floating on the rock.

cool. Right? But

see myself having that.
Speaker 1 (25:46):

I love that.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
And kind of like all
the rest of house on the
outside.
Speaker 1 (26:07):

Because while I was there and I
was walking around I wasthinking to myself, I don't know
that Lewis would like this,this, this. I think he would
really dig this. And there was aplant wall also that I talked I

Speaker 2 (26:22):
I love nature. I know
you do. I love nature in my art.
