Designers are very fickle. I never wanted to be a victim of that. You're in one minute, out the next.

I know how to dress for my body to give off illusions, and I like to teach women about it - it's important for women to have that power and that arsenal... tricks that make you feel good when you walk outside.

I went from being very popular and the head of the clique in the sixth grade to having, like, kid depression in the seventh grade. Not leaving the house. Not looking people in the eye... My body made me feel bad at everything.

Never dull your shine for somebody else.

I was backstage in Paris and saw Cindy Crawford doing House Of Style. I thought, I would love to to be in control of my career.

I don't like expensive things... I just can't help looking in a magazine for the splurge and the save.

I've always seen modeling as a stepping stone.
