There'd never been a clothing line made by a young woman like me: a multiethnic woman who has one foot in Gucci and one foot in the ghetto.

All of us are selling ourselves, every single minute of every single dayeach one of us is building our own 'brand of me' and saying 'buy into me, put your faith into me, give me this shot, I will make it happen.'

I'm very determined, honest, open and definitely very energetic. I expect a lot as a boss and I'm very demanding, but I ask that of myself too.

I'm a girl's girl. I'm a woman's woman. I'm a cool girl.

I'm much more into old-world, intimate conversations on the phone. I like to write letters.

Always dress like you're going to see your worst enemy.

Life is a series of adjustments; You can make changes along the way, but if you dodn't start moving forward you'll never get anywhere!
