doubt suits when-in-doubt
When in doubt, wear a suit.
jeans suits ripped-jeans
Even though jeans suit me, I never wear jeans.
children crazy virgos
Either you are a good Virgo or a crazy Virgo! The good Virgo side of me is educating and raising the children - being there for them.
sports dancing lasts
Dancing is the last sport with no sponsor.
artist play ideas
In a way, I envy the freedom artists have. Artists can push themselves beyond their limits, in pursuit of their ideas and their vision, even if they are inhabited by demons that can also play tricks on them.
character thinking people
I think I have character, and that is what people like in me.
morning thinking trying
I think that most of the women when they dress in the morning, they try to be someone elseToday there is too much retouching, and I don't like it...except on me.
thinking play people
I think, in many ways, certain people sought me out maybe because they liked my body language or they liked the way I wore a slit skirt, the way I cross my legs or carry my purse. It's quite inspiring to play the seduction card.
fashion morning different
Each morning, you dress to become a different woman. Fashion helps.
taken thinking firsts
I think the first picture taken is often the best one.
fashion stupid thinking
At the start, I had no idea to go into fashion, because I thought people would think I was stupid. I don't worry about those things anymore.
knives shoes white
I love black lingerie and white shoes, and I love knives.
fashion ballet tradition
Coco Chanel was always doing things with ballet, so it is a tradition clashing fashion and ballet.
naked would-be littles
There is always a bit of seduction to it when one person is clothed and the other is naked, which can be a little weird. Everybody should be naked. In that case, it would be easier. Let's do a huge naked photo shoot!
