I don't think of careers from a functional perspective or from a subject matter perspective. I think of careers as, how do you like spending the time in your day? What makes you happiest? What are you most passionate about?

I'm obsessed with 'New York' magazine.

I think it's extremely important to think of your company as a series of chapters.

As opposed to thinking about ourselves as disrupting the fashion industry, we're thinking about ourselves more broadly - about disrupting the closet and how you get dressed.

Think about all of the non-entrepreneurial advice and resources you need when building a company. You need lawyers, accountants, financial experts.

One of Rent the Runway's core values is 'Trust in Everyone's Best of Intentions.' We trust our team.

As leaders, we've all seen the painful effects of team members not keeping pace with company growth - it's called up-leveling, and it's all too common when a company goes from zero to something to hopefully an IPO.

Almost every one of us interacts with the experience or sharing economy every day, and I'm proud that Rent the Runway has helped to popularize and normalize this behavior.

I didn't wake up one day and want to become an entrepreneur. I had the idea for Rent the Runway and thought it would be fun to work on and also thought if it was successful, it would make women feel great about themselves.

I'm a very social person, and I like being in different kinds of environments.

If you spend your time away from work looking at emails and making sure your inbox went down to zero, that's not an effective way to spend your time as a CEO or an entrepreneur. Often times, those emails aren't that important.

I'm a magazine junkie. I have 30 different subscriptions to various magazines, and I like old-school, real magazines.

In order to really believe in an idea being revolutionary, you have to truly understand how it's going to revolutionize life.

I think sales is the most important skill set young people can learn. Understanding how to pitch an idea with confidence and secure a client are valuable skills that apply to every single aspect of business.

My parents are both massive feminists and always led me to believe that I could dream big and do anything that I wanted in my life, almost to a delusional degree.

I've always felt the connection between clothing and confidence, which is why I probably was such a shopaholic.

Clothing enables people to self-express, and that's why variety, when it comes to our wardrobe, has become more and more important over time.

We derive confidence as women from what we wear.

In early 2011, I had the opportunity to meet and spend significant time with Alfred Lin, a partner at Sequoia Capital and co-founder of Zappos.

I kick off every monthly team meeting with 'core value stories' - team members stand up and recognize how another team member exemplified a core value.

Taking the time to identify and infuse values certainly does affect outcomes and is one of the most important things to get right as the CEO.

The way I inspire loyalty in my team is for them to see me more casually, to have lunch with members of my team, for them to see me with my family, my fiance, to see the real me.

I want to put H&M and Zara out of business.

The first core value we have is that everyone deserves a Cinderella experience. And I have experienced a Cinderella experience. And I really believe that most people who've come to Rent the Runway have had a Cinderella experience.
