My whole family's been in the business. My whole family is crazy.
I always want to wear clothes that my children will one day look back on and say, 'Oh, you looked amazing - why didn't you keep that?' Not, 'Oh my God - I can't believe you wore that.'
My dad actually makes the best cookies. My mum is great baker, too, but doesn't share them - it's tantalising! Luckily for me though, my dad shares his!
You can learn a lot from criticism if you can take what's constructive out of it. If you read a review that starts with, 'This person is an idiot; who do they think they are?', you're not going to learn anything from that.
In high school, there are so many cliques. You're never safe.
It's difficult to wear such high Louboutins and also freestyle rap.
The Gucci woman can be the equestrian woman, the woman in the suit, the woman in the flowy bohemian dress, or the couture woman.
Design, whether it's on your body or in your home, is the same thing. It's mixing different colors, different textures, and unexpected patterns - elements that you wouldn't often put together in an interesting way.
I wear a lot more glitter around the holidays, so I'm always wearing different glitter nail polish or fun metallic eye shadow. It's the holidays - everything is more twinkly and celebratory.
I've never been a big fan of gossip. Being a victim of it, I knew how much it hurt.
Creating something I can use is the best stress reliever.
I was always observing my siblings and hearing stories about their lives that turned out to be helpful as an actress.
I was raised in California, so this whole New York winter thing is completely new for me. I've already justified buying seven coats!
I'd rather be by myself than be spending any time or energy on somebody that I didn't feel sure about.
