I nterior designer Alisha Pitarra's design sense goes beyond her job at The House Downtown, a home furnishings store in Belvedere Square.

Pitarra credits her husband, Greg Pitarra, owner of Bruno's Hair Design, with tending to her locks. But she knows how to tend to her frocks, like the cute black number she wore to a My Place Project fundraiser at the store.
