I think women want to look beautiful. I think that's an important thing. It is relevant.

An important lesson: Things that look like an overnight success usually aren't.

I like being behind the scene.

Even if you’re not yet an entrepreneur, you can be entrepreneurial in everything you do. If you view each stop as an opportunity to learn something, there is always something you will take away from that experience.

When I started my company, many people said I shouldn't launch it as a retail concept because it was too big a risk. They told me to launch as a wholesaler to test the waters - because that was the traditional way.

My company is an extension of me, so when I designed my stores I wanted people to feel that they were in my home.

I'm very forgiving so I forgive most things, really.
