I've always loved the idea of not being what people expect me to be.
choose clothes enjoy glam makeup red squad takes time work
I don't work with a stylist, I don't work with a glam squad to get me together for the red carpet, I really enjoy the time it takes to do it myself, to choose my clothes and do my own makeup and my own hair.
I was really, really shy when I was a little girl.
authentic collect cuban french life obsessed reinforced styling toe
I have been obsessed with seamed stockings my whole life, and I would collect vintage ones that were made in the '40s and '50s with the authentic styling of the keyhole, the welt, the reinforced toe and heels, French or Cuban heels, and hand-stitched seams.
attracted best eating fun image junk suppose time ultimately women
I suppose women are attracted to the bad-boy image sometimes because it's fun to have an adventure. It's like eating junk food... it's fun at the time, but ultimately not the best choice.
clothes girls normally retro seeing styling vintage wear
I like styling girls that don't normally dress in vintage clothes and don't normally wear red lipstick; I like seeing those kind of girls restyled in a retro way.
I don't have long-standing regrets; they pass as I see how things are meant to be.
chase follow forgotten great people tend trend
People who follow all the rules and chase every trend tend to get forgotten - they look great, but they're not as memorable.
bad days experience good happiness remind sad sadness
Some days are just bad days, that's all. You have to experience sadness to know happiness, and I remind myself that not every day is going to be a good day, that's just the way it is!
although atmosphere great keeps performing prefer stage yoga
I prefer the competitive atmosphere of a classroom setting, like yoga or Pilates. That keeps me going. Although performing on stage is great exercise!
dress home including items loved match painted room
I have a lot of Burberry items at home, including one dress that I loved so much that I had my living room painted to match because the color was so flattering.
bringing considered intrigued taboo
I was always intrigued by the idea of bringing things together that are considered taboo or risque and bringing them together with something of high elegance and sophistication.
I don't feel I have an alter ego.
best time
I feel better about myself when I look my best. I always find the time to put on my powder and do my chignon.
