When it comes to designers/businesswomen we admire, Jessie Randall of Loeffler Randall is definitely on the list. Her line of shoes, bags, and outerwear is the stuff our dreams are made of. Plus, she has a beautiful family—8-year-old twins, and a 5-year-old son—to boot. Here, the Brooklyn mama sits down with us for a cup of joe (or, in her case, tea) for a quick game of catch-up.
