The beautiful 1940s women were a strong influence for me.

My first job was in retail at the age of 14, and I have worked in the industry ever since.

Give yourself time to work on your dream. If you want to start a stationery company or if you want to start an Internet site... Whatever it is, pick the thing that you love, and allot the time, but know and value the downtime as well.

I always have one foot in the street, so I know not everyone wants to dress like the women they see in music videos.

When I talk to young girls about clothes, I tell them to show a lot of brains.

If I didn't love the hourglass, I wouldn't love myself.

I must know every aspect of my personal finances. Managing your money will help you make your money work for you.
