fashion editors way
It's incorrect to assume you can be a fashion editor because you blog, if you don't have experience to look at fashion in a professional way.
fashion careers antonio
Fashion illustrator Antonio Lopez was a major part of my early career.
fashion house guests
I have 4 bedrooms in my house. 1 is for guests, the other 3 are for closets.
fashion live-your-life world
You cannot live your life in the elitist world of fashion and not step out or you're disconnected. You have to realize that fashion is not the endgame.
fashion emotional clothes
Wearing clothes should be a personal narrative of emotion. I always respond to fashion in an emotional way.
fashion people dresses
People love fashion exhibits because they can fantasize. They can respond to a dress even if they can never wear a dress like that.
fashion people
I love people - it is not the fashion, it is the people in fashion I love.

On 9/11, that morning, I was in a Christian Dior Couture appointment at the Hotel Pierre.

I watch Rachel Maddow, Keith Olbermann, and Chris Matthews. That's what I watch every night. By the time I've watched them, I don't have time to watch reality TV shows.
four love sitting somewhere wonderful
I love sitting through long things. I mean, 'Gone With the Wind' I will sit through; I love sitting somewhere for four hours, for anything. I love being on a train. I love sitting down for four hours. I think it's the most wonderful thing to be able to sit somewhere and concentrate on something for more than two hours.

Valentino made my day suit for the wedding of Paloma Picasso in Paris.

If you're going to be a model, what's going to get you the job on a go-see and makes you stand out, it might not be your lipstick or your portfolio or what you're wearing, it might come from your core being.
hot lowest point standing total
'Drekitude' is the lowest point in the lowest ebb. It could be your look. It could be your shoes. It could be that you're standing wrong. 'Drek' is a total, total, total hot mess.
people stand
What's that show? 'TMZ'? They stand there and say, 'I've got this on this person.' The focus on celebrities can be detrimental because people could be thinking of other things, but it's a part of the culture and it's what sells.
