horrible anorexics
It was genuinely horrible. I stopped using Twitter for a while because I got so much s**t about being anorexic. And Im not.
kind obvious
As soon as that was kind of green-lit, it became very obvious to me what I wanted to do and it was an instinctive reaction to my relationship with how I wear my Ugg boots. Which is in London and in New York, I wear them as soon as I get in basically.
horse father grateful
My father taught me how to draw horses - for this I shall be eternally grateful.
skins cream wells
I prefer using cream-based products on my skin. I love having that summery dewy skin - I like using cream blushers as well.
thinking jeans fancy
I tend to splurge on fancy dresses because I always think I'll get a lot of wear out of them, but it's false logic. You should really spend more money on the things you wear every day, like jeans.
fashion thinking different
I think there's more room for different representations of women within fashion imagery.
differences people knows
I don't like it when people don't know the difference between 'their', 'they're', 'there'.
role-models political roles
I'm not preaching about things you should do, I'm not political or anything. I'm probably not the best role model.
simple thinking chic
I think Maje typifies that French vibe where it's simple items that are very practical, very wearable but also, like, incredibly chic and expensive-looking.
bored one-thing ifs
I would get very bored if I just did one thing.
song fun play
DJing for people is fun until someone comes up with a phone screen that has 'PLAY SOME RIHANNA' written on it. I prefer to play older songs because they're the ones I personally enjoy dancing and singing along to and modern dance music bores my brains out.
guitar play trying
I play guitar a bit. I'm trying to learn drums - I feel like I can play violin. I've never tried, but I just feel like I can.
fashion new-york style
London Fashion Week is so different from any of the others. Compared to the strictness in New York, London seems freer from commercial constraints. Truer to the process, to street style, to a sense of humour.
girl dream fashion
I think it's every girl's dream, a little bit, to be a model because it seems from the outside to be a glamorous industry and I was really into fashion, and I remember just being excited and wanting to be part of that.
