What I most identify with is effortless fashion, looking as if someone's not put a lot of effort into their look.

What you don’t know can be your greatest asset.

Failure to me became not trying versus not succeeding

Don't be intimidated by what you don't know. That can be your greatest strength and ensure that you do things differently from everyone else.
