On one hand I am this weird androgynous tomboy where I’m strangely low maintenance and have a five-minute makeup regimen. On the other I’m obsessed with all things beauty, from skin care to makeup.

All those things they say about a baby changing your perspective – it does!

I think that sexiness should be in the subtleties.

The constant in all the businesses I’ve become a part of is taking what I do and making it real for everyone. I believe fantasy and dreaming can be made a reality. You don’t have...

It’s really unfair to working women in America who read celebrity news and think, ‘Why can’t I lose weight when I’ve had a baby?’ Well, everyone you’re reading about has money for a trainer and...

I’m someone that never likes to overpower the girls in hair and makeup.

Hair is a huge part of who I am and what I obsess over – I’ve had long hair my entire life.

I always carry a Tom Ford lipstick and Tachta face blotters to get me through the day.

Girls, to me, growing up were very, very petty and didn’t want me to succeed and didn’t want the best for me.

I wear things that kind of can look good for extended periods of time – fabrics that don’t wrinkle, things that don’t stain very easily.

As great as it is, ‘Vogue’ won’t change a designer’s business. But if an unknown brand is worn by a certain person in a tabloid, it will be the biggest designer within a week.

It’s a constant challenge trying to find balance between styling, designing and being a mom.

I’m a textbook definition of that perfectionist girl who has huge expectations of herself.

I think, in spring, we don’t want to wear makeup, we don’t want to wear a ton of clothes, we just want everything to be easier.

I am a child of the ’70s, so I love classic rock – Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Van Morrison, and I also love Coldplay.

I did not have a van, or wear Birkenstocks and tie-dyes.

Everyone wants to be a stylist. If you know that’s your calling, then you need to intern as much a humanly possible. You need to go to fashion school if you can.

Something that’s very painful for me is when people wear pants that are too short.

My basics are black, white, or neutral, and I’ll wear a ton of jewelry or carry a brightly colored bag.

It’s hard for me to take care of myself, let’s put it that way. I am my last priority.

I believe fantasy and dreaming can be made a reality. You don’t have to be rich. You don’t have to be a VIP.

I do love being on television and in peoples’ homes. I’m not an actor, so there is a connection that’s real.

Sexiness should not be overt. Something shapeless that drapes across your hip, hangs off the shoulder; something that cowls in the front, drapes low in the back, that’s sexy.

Tom Ford does everything perfect.

You can’t get dressed without good hair.

Celebrities are just like us and like any of your friends. I love working with people.

I think what you wear really does need to reflect what your own personal style is.

I have lost my short-term memory – I’m just getting blonder by the day.

I don’t come from a family of slackers, but I do come from a family of doers.

I’m not trying to set the world on fire; I just want to make really beautiful clothes that women want to wear, can afford, and can really see themselves in.

I think people should look cute all the time.

My home has to feel airy and bright with natural light. I don’t switch on lamps until it is literally black outside.

I would do fragrance. I’m a fragrance fanatic.

I think, as a working mom, I have to dress myself differently now. I used to wear very kind of precious clothes. Now I wear more black.

I’m not a tough boss in that I don’t raise my voice, I don’t freak out, and I don’t have a temper most of the time.

I just fell into the job as a fashion editor at a teen magazine. I was there for two years, and I left there as a senior fashion editor at the age of 25.

When you look like you stepped out of a catalog, that’s never good. People shouldn’t succumb to trend, they should interpret trend.

People tell you everything changes when you have a kid, but what nobody says is you don’t mind.

My dad is an unbelievable entrepreneur who balanced his life as a father and a president of two very successful companies.

As far as I can remember, every dime I ever had went to something extravagant. I would rather spend more, buy fewer items and have them forever.

I don’t deal in pretentious kids’ parties.

I will always think of myself as that girl that is 22 starting and really excited about everything and wanting to be amazing at everything. I always wanted to be the best stylist. That was...

I’m a Virgo and I’m more – I don’t want to say ‘negative’ – but I’m the girl who thinks no one’s coming to my birthday party, no one’s buying my clothes, no one’s reading...

If my client calls me and says, ‘I’m going to a friend’s premiere,’ I’ll say, ‘Come over and let’s do something cute.’ And I won’t bill them for that.

The thing that I really look for in people is enthusiasm and excitement and, not to sound really sappy, that fire in their eyes.

I keep saying I’m going to cut back on styling, but it’s hard to give up.

The worst thing you could ever get is people who think they know everything.

I would say that I definitely play a different role with my style; I like to mix it up a bit according to wherever I am. I dress differently in New York, L.A., Paris and...

I love Fall Fashion Week because it means lots of layering, long sweaters and vintage coats.

You have to interpret what’s hot to make it work on yourself. If tweed suits are in, but you’re not a suit kind of girl, wear the jacket with jeans and a pair of Converses.
