In terms of pots and pans, I just use the basics - Im not a snob like that.

Beauty is my heritage, but home decor is very much my passion.

People always ask what I would have done if I weren't doing what I'm doing. And I say I'd [still] be in fashion or in beauty. It's such a dream come true now because I have the ability to go into home [goods] and accessories as well.

When you ask women what's the one thing they wish they had more of, they always say time.

You always have to stay true to yourself.

I think talented people are priceless. And I think people that are knowledgeable and experienced - and I think there's a balance of new talent and experience, which makes, I think, Estee Lauder really special.

Beauty is my heritage and my core. But my passion is design for the spaces where we live and work.
