good looks morning next wake wrong
It is very wrong to sleep in your make-up, but when you wake up the next morning, I think it looks very good.
people
It's always fun when people ask you for advice.
buy choosing outfit whether
Working with Barneys, and choosing the looks, I was thinking about whether a real woman would buy this outfit and feel beautiful and comfortable.
Working for a magazine, you have a boss; you are not free.
bit russian
Yes, I can speak a bit and I can read and write in Russian. I learned it from my grandmother who raised me with all the Russian fairytales.
I like to surprise people. I try to take risks.
good love noise wear
I love the noise of my wooden clogs on my wooden floor. Dancers wear clogs. They're good for you.
maybe paparazzi
I always try to be nice to the paparazzi because finally, maybe one day, they won't ask for me, and I will regret it.
describe people
If people ask me to describe my look, I always say: 'Quite classic with an edge.'
art love loves music reader woman
If you are a reader of 'Harper's Bazaar,' to me, you are a woman who loves fashion, but not just fashion; you love fashion, you love travel, you love art, you love music.
If you listen too much, you won't be able to create.
bit interested keeps maybe people rock roll stay
When you get older, you have to stay a bit rock n' roll so that young people will still be interested in you. The way you move, the way you talk, maybe the way you have your hair in your face a little bit - this keeps you interesting.
kids
When you have a magazine like 'Vogue,' you know a lot of kids are going to follow your pictures.
good surrounded
I keep my old friends, and get older with them, but push young. It's good to be surrounded by kids, because they keep you young.
