"    Photo: Liz Von Hoene   Jewelry maven Jennifer Fisher spilled that she has big plans up her sleeves. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m going to Paris in the next little while to discuss a potential collaboration with a certain designer\u2013I can&amp;#039;t really say who it is just yet, but if it happens, it&amp;#039;s going to be a game-changer,&amp;quot; she told us, draped in her own baubles, while sitting behind her desk at her Soho showroom. &amp;quot;If it&amp;#039;s meant to be, it will happen. If not, something else that is meant to will take shape\u2014I&amp;#039;m a huge believer in fate and reason.&amp;quot;    Fisher is a wardrobe stylist turned jewelry designer, who dabbled in creating gems by designing a simple dog tag (which she wore on an elongated chain) that had Shane, her son&amp;#039;s name, engraved on it. After friends began requesting the dog tags for themselves, her brand, Jennifer Fisher Jewelry, was born. Now, celebrities like Nicole Kidman, Liv Tyler, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Naomi Watts have all been spotted wearing her pieces from a 14-karat yellow gold dog tag to an extensive line of charms (there are over 4,000). &amp;quot;There&amp;#039;s something for everyone,&amp;quot; she noted. &amp;quot;Hey, did you know before I started making my own stuff, I never wore jewelry? It&amp;#039;s really funny how things change.&amp;quot; Here, Fisher, rocking a long chain with over 15 of her charms, answers our favorite ten questions. 1. What is your favorite smell? &amp;quot;My kids. Only another mother can understand this\u2014it&amp;#039;s primal and comforting. I also love the smell of vanilla; it is the only scent I wear because I get horrible headaches from commercial perfumes. I am the girl in the elevator who everyone is looking at while asking, &amp;#039;Who smells like cookies?&amp;#039;&amp;quot; 2. What do you consider to be the epitome of happiness? &amp;quot;Health and family. That is all that matters to me. I will always be a mother and parent first. After years of health issues\u2026and finally being able to actually have my children\u2013that is the biggest gift. [Our] family vacations to amazing, exotic destinations are the icing on the cake.&amp;quot; 3. How do you define luxury? &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;d have to say high quality timeless items, like gold personalized heirloom jewelry. Luxury is the ability to withstand the test of time and pass down to your children and grandchildren. Some of my favorite pieces of jewelry are from my grandmother. Her &amp;quot;L&amp;quot; ring she wore daily was one of the inspirations of my gothic font.&amp;quot;  4. What is the last dream you remember? &amp;quot;I am nocturnal. I have the worst sleeping patterns on earth. To be honest, I spend most nights sketching or catching up on personal things around the house. When I do dream, I am flying and floating a lot. &amp;quot; 5. What&amp;#039;s your favorite childhood memory? &amp;quot;Gardening barefoot with my father in the early morning before school and helping him water all of the plants. He was a very busy man but this was our bonding time for the day. He always kept these huge gardens every season. I remember having muddy feet and picking vegetables and roses for my mother. There was always a ton of zucchini salad, grilled zucchini, and zucchini bread. My mom loved to cook, so she was always making something interesting with it. Oddly, it is still one of my favorite vegetables. You would think the opposite.&amp;quot; 6. What&amp;#039;s the last book you read and loved? &amp;quot;The biography of Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson. His ability for matching inventive creativeness with technology is something I am in awe of. I tend to read biographies and love learning the history of people&amp;#039;s success and lives. Next month, I&amp;#039;m heading to Anguilla and hope to read Keith Richards&amp;#039;s biography.&amp;quot; 7. Describe your home&amp;#039;s aesthetic. &amp;quot;Minimal comfort with an edge. I collect photography and love using the walls as my color and mood boards. I love mixing pops of color from David LaChapelle, Steven Klein, and Bert Stern. My most used piece of furniture is the dining room table as I am an avid cook and insist on family dinners at least a few nights a week. I am always buying new dishes and bowls to mix in. I&amp;#039;m a sucker for interesting pottery and tabletop [buys], like vases, beautiful fabric napkins, bowls, and pitchers. I even find jewelry inspiration in some of these tabletop pieces. I&amp;#039;m working on a collaboration with a friend for some amazing pieces for the home. I can&amp;#039;t wait to share\u2026.when the time is right.&amp;quot; 8. What are your vices? &amp;quot;Gluten and lychee martinis. I need to stay gluten-free because of my blood issues, but I swear there is nothing better than biting into a big baguette from Balthazar or good pizza from Rubirosa on Mulberry Street [in NYC]. It&amp;#039;s a daily struggle for me. Yes, they make amazing gluten-free products now but it is so not the same. At the end of the day, I immediately start to crave a light lychee martini. There is a group of us who always meet at Mr. Chow in Tribeca and sit outside.&amp;quot; 9. Describe yourself in five words or less. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m passionate, loyal, trustworthy, aggressive, and spontaneous. Yes, I&amp;#039;m a hardcore Taurus.&amp;quot; 10. What possession will you never throw away? &amp;quot;I will never get rid of any of my personal jewelry. Each piece tells a story and holds its own energy and significant meaning to me. I&amp;#039;ll also never toss a little creepy porcelain cupid doll that was my grandmother&amp;#039;s. She lives in my jewelry safe.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
