anybody best people
We always know better than anybody else what looks best on us. Even if people are complimenting you, if you think, 'I hate what I have on,' it's not right.
In general, fashion is challenging. Everything from clothes to fragrances.
designing love shirts wear white
I love white shirts because they feel like a security blanket. You can wear them with anything. It's the person and the way that they wear it that makes it different. I have been designing white shirts forever, but I don't get tired of it.
changes entire eyes looks shape work
I've had work done on my eyes in the past. However, I think there are limits. I wouldn't ever have too much done, as it looks unnatural, and I don't think you should do anything to your lips, as it changes the entire shape of your face.
easy lean
It's very lean and very easy and very uncomplicated.
dressed god half hours people spend takes thank three understood
Thank God my hair is always the same. And I get dressed very quickly. I am not one of those people who spend three hours getting dressed. I never understood that. What do you do for the two and a half hours after the half hour it takes you to get ready?
age change changing realize women
Sometimes you see women that don't realize that age is changing your style, and they don't change.

You wouldn't know it but I'm no good at... cooking. My chef does that.

The skirts are lovely, ... They move very well and they're very feminine. They make women look really like women.
alter longer love satisfied truly
I am truly happy with what I've got. But if I could alter something, it would be my hands. I've never been satisfied with them - I would love longer fingers.
flannel gray heaven lots love materials translated wonderful
Lots of suits, lots of trousers, which I'm in heaven (about) because I love them. (They're) all made in men's materials like glen plaids and gray flannel and all in houndstooth. All those men's materials translated for a very feminine, wonderful woman.
changed favourites
There isn't a book that has changed me, but I have favourites such as 'Pride and Prejudice' which I often re-read.
appear aspiration life
It's not my aspiration to appear on a reality show. That's the last thing I need in my life.
business designers embellish tendency
There's a tendency for designers to embellish the size of their business. I never lie.
