The best thing you can do for someone is make them a beautiful plate of food. How else can you invade someone's body without actually touching them?

You don't want your jewelry to make you look fat. A lot of what's out there now does - you just wind up looking like a Christmas tree.

One thing that happens when you're pregnant is that as your stomach starts to stretch. It itches! So I have to keep my belly really lubricated. Every morning, there's a buttering ceremony after I get out of the shower. It's really like basting a turkey with body butter.

Where is it written that a smart woman can't also be stacked?

I don't have any stigma attached to my body. When I'm in my own private space, I have very little on.

Whenever I'm in sync with the trends, it's always an accident. I still love wearing clothes I've had for ten years. I think understated luxury is the chicest thing.

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.
