Like everybody and trust no one.

I'm not old-fashioned when it comes to dating, but there's something nice about a guy pulling out a girl's chair and opening the door for her, even if it's just in the beginning.

I go into meetings, and people have this preconceived notion of me that I didn't work hard to get where I am.

I think I can design a children's line after I have a child. For me, when I take on a new category I feel like I need to be really well educated in it. I have lots of friends with kids, and I enjoy shopping for them, but I think until you have a child, it's really hard.

I try to never look back at how I dressed in the first few seasons of 'Laguna Beach' because it was pretty bad... head-to-toe bad.

I love anything really feminine. I love any sort of girly detail - anything with a bow or a heart on it, I'm immediately in love with.

One of my biggest goals, especially with writing YA novels, is just to have people enjoy reading.
