As soon as that was kind of green-lit, it became very obvious to me what I wanted to do and it was an instinctive reaction to my relationship with how I wear my Ugg boots. Which is in London and in New York, I wear them as soon as I get in basically.

I don't ever want to stop learning. And I really want to learn French fluently. It would be great to go and live in France.

On the same Australian trip, I brought back a pair [of Ugg] for my then boyfriend who was a photographer. He wore them all the time. He used to wear them with Levis twisted jeans and a vintage T-shirt. This is 2002. They looked great on him. I guess it takes a certain kind of man to pull them off but they have other ones that are less typical of this, I think.

I prefer using cream-based products on my skin. I love having that summery dewy skin - I like using cream blushers as well.

Listen, the idea that I might be a fashion soothsayer is very flattering but completely inaccurate.

Clothes are about manipulations: how I feel, how I want to feel and how I want others to feel about me.

I get to work with great photographers, wear lovely clothes, be part of the creative process.
