I’ll spend more time getting dressed than I spent at the actual event.
These are things I love, things I’ve worn. I get more compliments on accessories than anything else. I think they’re kind of like herbs and spices. They give zest and zing to an outfit.
I was in art school since I was five years old. I’ve always been to art school.
The world is always full of promise.
I’m not going to be a rebel and offend anybody, but I’m not going to live in somebody else’s image.
I think I still keep my sense of wonder, which I call childlike, not childish, childlike. I still have a vivid imagination, and I like to try a lot of new things.
In my view you can’t go to the future if you haven’t come from the past.
My mother worshipped at the altar of the accessory.
I think dressing up or down should be a creative experience. Exciting. Fun. For me the key to personal style lies in accessories. I love objects from different worlds, different eras, combined my way. Never uptight, achieving – hopefully – a kind of throwaway chic.
Everything that’s happened to me, nothing’s been planned. I’ve never had a business plan. I just kind of fell into it, and I liked it, and I took a chance. I took a lot of chances in my life.
I love a nice hot pink. I like thick lipstick, otherwise it doesn’t look like you’re wearing any.
I don’t count myself as a fashionista because I do a lot of other things. That’s just a small part of my life.
I think fashion is just part of my life and if it hadn’t of been fashion then it would have been something else.
I’m not a minimalist, as I’m sure you’ve noticed.
To me there are lots more important things in the world than just having the right shoes!
I can’t tell people how to have style. No amount of money can buy you style. It’s just instinctive.
I find that if I get up and push myself, I get lost in what I’m doing, and I forget about everything else until I stop doing it.
I used to collect frames. I’ve been collecting accessories since I was 11-years-old, creeping around flea markets and sales and everything. Whenever I saw unusual eyeglass frames, I bought them.
I’m delighted that gay people want to get married and I say why not! It’s nobody’s business and I would happily give my blessing.
I don’t expect to find inspiration. It just sort of comes. Sometimes you step on a bug and you get inspired.
