The greatest natural enemy of women is insecurity. We all feel it and we all think we are the only ones who feel that way. How we deal with these fears determines to a great extent how effective we are in running our lives. Most women present a façade to the world and keep the insecurity locked inside. The toughest job in the world is to be a complete, happy woman.

I don't like to talk about my dreams. I like to make them happen. I prefer to talk about them when they're done.

Water is life is love is life is water.

I design for the woman I wanted to be, the woman I used to be and to some degree, the woman I'm still a little piece of.
