fashion thinking trying
I think it's cool that London Fashion Week is about young designers trying wacky things.
clothes creative lovely
I get to work with great photographers, wear lovely clothes, be part of the creative process.
scary interviews might
I'd love to interview Mick Jagger, but that might be scary.
numbers track together
I mix my own lipsticks, so I don't really keep track of the brand as it's usually a number of them I've smushed together.
mom running fashion
I worry all the time that I'm going to run out of ideas, you know? I always tell my mom my fashion ideas, because I know she'll remember them.
thinking
I think as I get older that's an area that I'd like to explore more. Going from being in front of the lens to behind it.
hair dry ifs
If I'm doing my hair myself, I just wash it and let it naturally dry. I'm actually quite good at doing hair; if I wear it up I usually do it myself.
sexy my-boyfriend needs
If my boyfriend finds me sexy, then I don't need that kind of male attention from anyone else.
oil obsessed decided
I didn't moisturise when I was younger, but when I got to 27 I decided to start slathering myself in oil, and now I'm obsessed with moisturising.
art responsibility thinking
I think the challenges that come with the responsibility of art directing something is something that appeals to me.
organization people easy
I'm never going to be one of those people who is good at organization. But I'm very visual. I have a catalog in my head of things I already own, so it's easy to shop and I always know exactly what I'm looking for.
dream fashion school
At school, a careers adviser asked me what I wanted to be, and I said 'fashion journalist,' so writing for 'Vogue' has provided me with the opportunity to fulfill a dream.
fashion paris different
When I was going to Paris for Paris Fashion Week, I'd often walk down the street and go into all the different shops that we didn't necessarily have in the U.K., and Maje was definitely one of the ones that stood out for me.
dream art fun
I think modeling is interesting, it's obviously nice to take on a character and go through the process. I'm very lucky that I've been able to do that but I think the challenges that come with the responsibility of art directing something is something that appeals to me. I've done it before in collaboration with other people but it's the first time someone's literally handed it over and been like, "What do you want?" It was really fun to kind of dream up a concept and then execute it with all my friends.
