Tory Burch and Lauren Santo Domingo are female entrepreneurs whose style influences many. Ms. Santo Domingo, who is a contributing editor for Vogue, cofounded Moda Operandi, an online fashion retailer that lets shoppers "preorder any look straight off the runway months before it hits stores." Forbes has declared fashion designer and philanthropist Tory Burch the 79th most powerful woman in the world. The "queen of bohemian chic" is now a billionaire with a growing global empire. Both women chose architect/designer Daniel Romualdez to create their office spaces. Mr. Romualdez and Ms. Burch have worked together to design her multiple boutiques around the world. All of the spaces featured below are colorful, chic and inviting - as if Ms. Burch and Ms. Santo Domingo are welcoming clients and customers into their homes. Take a peek . . .
