If I see a fashion show with literal influences, it doesn't make me think any more. It doesn't make me dream.
I'm usually very attracted to things that I can't define. If something's too clear, it's very often not inspiring to me anymore.
L.A. interests me, the whole band scene and relaxed carefree feel, but it does not mean you have to dress like a hippy.
Fashion is such an octopus. You're connected to so many people: suppliers, pattern makers, production teams, marketing teams, vendors.
The fashion world doesn't know the word 'stop,' so you have to make sure there are sublime moments every day.
I really think that creating clothes and fashion has to be a statement about how we live and where we live and what's happening in the world.
Whenever I pick up a jacket and it's heavy, I think, 'Oh, I don't want to wear that.'
I think the more I learn, the more I see, and what you see makes your eyes and talent evolve.
I have so many fashion mistakes, but that's part of being in fashion. I think the people that you see make the most mistakes are usually the best dressers.
Now celebrity has taken on a holy status all of its own, and we look to the stars to provide us with the transcendental experience that was once achieved through religion.
And only the photographer himself knows the effect he wants. He should know by instinct, grounded in experience, what subjects are enhanced by hard or soft, light or dark treatment.
Sephora is a mecca for cosmetics, and it supports what I enjoy: You go into the store, and touch it, and try it, and love it. I've never bought anything on the Internet. I like experience.
My passion in life, besides my family, was always music. From the time I was a kid, I was obsessed. I'm like the ultimate fan.
My point of view is that if I love a certain kind of beauty, I want more of that beauty. I don't need 200 different beauties.
Because my business life is so busy, my home is really my sanctuary. That is where I reflect and spend quality time with my girls.
The cool thing is that now that people have made this evolution where cooking is cool, people are doing it on weekends, they're doing their own challenges. It's back to cooking. And it's real cooking.
I once saw a picture in the paper of John Hegley with 'poet' written on his knuckles, and I thought that was pretty cool, so I was quite up front about it.
I even knew some of the dialogue but it was definitely cool to look at. We always argue that the movies should be loyal but in this case I could argue that it might have been too loyal.
Yoga is at the core of my health and wellness routine; even if it's only for 10 to 15 minutes I find it helps me to re-center and to focus as well as improve my overall core strength.
Fashion is a tool... to compete in life outside the home. People like you better, without knowing why, because people always react well to a person they like the looks of.
I have a 6-year-old niece who doesn't look like the majority of girls on the covers of magazines. I hope that by the time she's 16, the world will have changed.
