Other than the obvious, like Cher and Diana Ross, I actually find a lot of inspiration from time periods. So it's not necessarily people, it's the essence of the time period, whether it be the '90s or the '70s or the '40s. The specific time and what vibe it gave you, what the emotion of that time was, and trying to get that emotion again.

That's what fashion is supposed to do to you, it's supposed to make you happy, make you excited, make you feel good.

I like to find things in real life that let me get involved. Or if you need a break, go hang out with your family.

The best thing is to realize that you are who you are and you gotta work with what you got.

I wanted something that was really well-made but also still hitting a price point that's tangible and logical for average people - that's who I want to cater to.

I always have my own music on my iPod, especially songs that I am going to record. Besides that, I have lots of others ranging from Chris Brown to Beyonce', Michael Jackson, Rascal Flatts and Adele.

I don't mind if people look at me like I'm crazy. I'm just being me.
