I am a sufferer of endometriosis. I didn't want any young women to go through what I went through. I thought that people should know about it.

I was lucky to have a successful career as a model, but that was just a way to pay off my college loans.

Whether I'm making a recipe or a piece of jewelry or a white-rose-and-jasmine tea or the perfume, I like to think of myself as a happy little sorceress, and if I could just have a little general store with all that stuff and give people a sense of my taste, that would be lovely.

I'm not attached to things at all. I'm very lucky to have quite a few beautiful things, but if I look back at my life, I was often happiest when I had very little.

Decide which you want to play up: your clothing or your jewelry, but not both. Let one be the star and one the supporting player.

I always loved my bangles, I can't remember a time when I didn't have a bangle on.

I think eating in itself is the act of great sensuality, so all you have to do is point the camera in the right direction.
