tools helping help-me
Clothing is always a tool that helps me take a picture. But it's never about the clothing.
mom kids thinking
I'm always anxious when it comes to my kids. This always makes me feel very vulnerable. Sometimes you think you aren't a good mama, you always feel a bit guilty when you're a mom. You want to be everywhere.
fun juice stills
I am like a lemon. I'm pressed for more juice. When I have fun, there's still juice. I am not dried up.
fashion children father
I think that life has brought a lot to fashion, and fashion brings plenty to life. I took my children on photo shoots, at the same time, I borrowed my father's sweater for a photo shoot and, then, I am inspired by a Russian princess because of my Russian roots. Everything is all mixed in together.
people important
You're not on your own. You're doing things with other people. This is very important for me.

I am not mean at all, I am not tough at all.
fashion crazy serious
Fashion shows used to be more crazy. Now they've become a bit too serious.
fashion light trying
Fashion is supposed to be light and not try too hard.
easier do-it-yourself
It’s funny, everything is so much easier when you do it yourself.
fashion magazines persons
A magazine is not just one person. And a fashion shoot is the same!
crazy eyebrows bleaching
Bleaching eyebrows makes me crazy.
internet horrible rumours
A lot of rumours on the Internet are wrong and horrible.
fashion weekend together
When you love fashion, there is no weekend. Everything just blends together.
mean home grandmother
"Grandmother" doesn't mean that you have gray hair and you retire and stay home cooking cakes for your grandchildren.
