To be useful to others and to be useful to myself is definitely a better place to be.

Awkwardness gives me great comfort.

I'd like to be invisible. To be anonymous and see things for what they really are. The truth may be painful but it's probably useful!

But I'm blessed to work with great people. I collaborate with brilliant stylists both here and in Paris. I work with a great design team. I really allow everyone to bring their ideas. I almost rely on them to inspire me.

I never cared about buying things for myself, like clothes. And then all of a sudden I realized how great it is to be very precise about the shirts that I wear and all the things that are a part of my closet. So the ritual of fashion and shopping became very personal to me.

Makeup is the finishing touch, the final accessory.

Without any kind of real ego on my part, I just thought, I'm going to approach the people I admire and see if they want to do something together.
