lonely towers sometimes
I know sometimes I can come off like a lonely spinster in a tower. That's not me at all.
philosophy practice two
I practice stoic philosophy. As a human being, you may have emotions, but these don't need to affect your soul. The two are not one.
thinking who-i-am people
I just am who I am. And then when people label me eccentric or different, Im kind of astonished because I think, This is completely normal. This is just how I am, its how Ive always been.
art real movement
There hasn't been anything real since grunge. That was the last movement led by music or an art form.
taken journey years
Fragrance takes you on a journey of time. You can walk down the street and pass someone and get taken back 20 years. It's very Proustian that way.
children hate ideas
I hate the idea of making any of my children into a mini-me. That would be terrible.
dream
I don't tell anybody else what to wear. I would never dream of it.
book gossip tvs
I never read gossip press. I just read books. And I never switch on the TV anymore.
fun mean piano
I play piano and I sing. But I do that for fun. I mean, I do everything for fun.
thinking work-out dresses
I don't dress for effect, and I think that it never works out when someone does.
humans human-beings
Human beings all mimic each other.
jobs real ideas
I really don't understand the idea of a celebrity stylist. Is it a real job? I know there's unemployment, but frankly the railways need to be fixed, too.
art bad clothes clothing collect people piece rap though
I treat clothing or a piece of jewelry like it was a piece of art, even though people who collect clothes get a bad rap because they're told it's all vanity.
home permanent quite
It's quite nice to have a place to leave things. You can be a permanent gypsy, but it's nice to go home.
