Life is about doing the things that make you happy, not the things that please other people. If you can please other people, that's a plus, but as long as you're not hurting anyone, you're golden.

I'm hugely inspired by the '60s and the '70s. I just love the music of that time and the overall freedom of that era. I love that the idea of clashing didn't really exist. You could mix prints on prints, you could mix fabrics and colors - and it was more about the way you felt than about the label and trends. That's something that I've always gravitated towards.

You have to know that success is greater when it's shared.

I grew up with him [Michael Jackson] and I've spent a lot of time at Neverland and nothing has ever happened with me in any way. You have to look at both sides. I do think it is very convenient that his album came out and all this stuff is happening. I definitely do think that's very convenient... It really hurts me to see that his whole life is ruined.

It's hard to tell who has your back, from who has it long enough just to stab you in it.

I'm a Virgo and I'm really good at scheduling. And I really make it work. I get up 6.30 every day.

A fashion icon to me is somebody who has, the first person who struck you and introduced you to the world of fashion, and that person is my mom.
