Fashion is like food! Some people like sushi, others think hamburgers are divine! People like different things!

When I was a kid, I was trendier. I'd wear anything. I was in love beads and platforms...

I grew up surrounded by these tough, ballsy, strong women. They were also adoring women, but they were the kind of women who would argue over what kind of pants you were wearing or the color of your nail polish.

I think the older I get, the more I realize that the ultimate luxury is time.

No human being should wear tight satin.

Seventy per cent of the clothes you own should be meat and potatoes. Thirty per cent should be icing and fluff - that's colour, pattern, shine, accessories. Too many women get the proportions the other way round, then can't figure out why they can't get dressed.

Because of what's going on with the economy, I think women are realizing that maybe they don't need a closet full of clothes. They just need the right clothes.
