Sometimes, being a single mother, I miss the freedom. I see my other friends with kids, and when they go out for a drink, it is the dad that stays in.

Having a manicure pulls a look together. Hands are the first thing people see after your face.

My mum told me always to wear heels. If I'm not wearing heels, she says, 'What? You're in flats?' So whenever I see her, I make sure I have heels with me.

I first met the brand [Didier Dubot] when I went to an event for them on Top of The Standard. It was about three years ago. It was the first time I heard about them and then that's where I met them.

I knew I was in good hands [with Didier Dubot] and we could accomplish whatever I had in mind.

I had a strong identity in mind but then of course I had to trust Didier Dubot's expertise. They've been doing jewelry for so many years.

Among mortals second thoughts are wisest.

[M]odern society is indeed often, at least in surface appearance, nothing but a collection of strangers, each pursuing his or her own interests under minimal constraints.

I have never been shy about listening to the input of others and weighing it seriously.

I prefer to be noticed some day, first for my ideas and second for my good eye.

Converse with men makes sharp the glittering wit, But God to man doth speak in solitude.

Never expect what you write to be any good, 'cause it's the fear of writing badly that stops you from finding the right words.

I rescued a dog. It was a beautiful.

It takes a wise man to handle a lie, a fool had better remain honest.

A laugh costs too much when bought at the expense of virtue.
