dream fashion bits
Fashion creates a bit of a dream
skins looks products
It's not a feminizing product; it's designed to make your skin look better.
dark glasses looks
A good trick as you get older is to get a thick pair of glasses that have a dark frame. Everything else can droop and slide but that pair of dark glasses stays sharp and crisp. Look at Cary Grant. Look at Vidal Sassoon.
expression dressing-well manners
Dressing well is an expression of manners.
perfect focus accessories
There is no more dramatic accessory than a perfect lip. It is the focus of the face and it has the power to define a woman's whole look.
beautiful world why-not
We are living in a material world, so why not live with something beautiful?
worry way want
I worry constantly and obsess over things, but I just don't let fear stand in the way of doing something that I really want to do
fool looks projects
Never, ever, ever wear anything you are uncomfortable in. Because that is what you'll project: 'I look like a fool.'
design important finals
Advertising is, of course, important because advertise is the final design. It's the last layer that speaks to the customer, that tells them what you have.
summer sunset light
Skin bathed in summer sunset light is sultry and sublime. Every woman looks irresistible in its glow-relaxed and sensual.
perfection personality strive
I probably do have an obsessive personality, but striving for perfection has served me well
fun ifs
If it's not fun, I'm not going to do it.
fashion thinking different
I enjoy the speed of fashion. I love doing different things and I think I still have something valid to say in fashion.
white black important
One of the most important things is to figure out what your look is — I don't wear this black suit-white shirt combination all the time to try and be iconic — but because I'm most comfortable in this. Cary Grant never turned up in a pink jacket and hot pants and I don't feel the need to experiment when I know I like dressing this way.
