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?
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.
people luck ask-me
If you ask me to sew a button, I don't know how to do it! The idea of the whole collection and how you want to build your brand is all about working with the right people. And luck!
people office problem
Sometimes I'm a psychiatrist and I tell people in my office that my door is open, and if they have a problem to come and talk to me. Sometimes I say, "I have to close the door because I don't want to hear it!"
people fantastic empowered
I want women to choose something that makes them feel empowered and fantastic and admired by many people.
people describe-me
I always let other people describe me because if I describe myself you will not understand.
taken mean people
I walk in the park every day, and when people come and ask for a photograph, I say, "Oh, my God!" It means they recognize that I have been doing something right and they want to have a photograph taken with me.
people waiting know-yourself
You can't wait for people to tell you; you have to know yourself.
shoes people pairs
People get nervous accessorising, but there is nothing wrong with adding a belt or a pair of shoes in another colour.
book people agendas
Most people travel with a good book, but I also keep my agenda with me; I'll flip through the pages and take a few moments to organize my life a little - I rarely get the time to do this normally.
people naked want
People confuse vulgar and naked with sexiness. You want the mystery!
people mind shy
I am very shy. When I go to a charity ball, I don't mind if people look at my sleeves. I mind terribly if I have to say something.
party people trying
Politics are private. I don't understand people who try to convince you to join one party or another.
people laughing never-forget
You never forget people who make you laugh.
