The biggest mistake a woman can make is not to be herself in public or private.

The success of every single woman is the inspiration for another.
girl mother children
When I was a little girl, if I didn't eat my soup, my mother would say, 'You have to think of all the Chinese children who have nothing to eat.' But now, for my children, Chinese people make everything, and for my grandchildren, they buy everything.
travel kind himalayas
If you like trekking, go to the Himalayas or Peru. I love those kinds of trips. But it all depends on your own life and what you like and what you expect.
zippers dresses different
The wrap dress is the most traditional form of dressing: It's like a robe, it's like a kimono, it's like a toga. It doesn't have buttons or zippers. What made it different was that it was jersey; therefore, it was close to the body and it was a print.
symbols
For me, traveling and living are the same. How you travel is a symbol of your life.
aging myth growing-older
Now is the time to become a myth.
dream believe important
The important thing is to believe in what you do. Have a big dream and take small steps.
book soul secret
I must have books everywhere. They're the soul of a room-they reveal the taste, the interests, and the secrets of whoever lives there.
style needs
Style is something each of us already has, all we need to do is find it.
thinking together rooms
You know, there's a thing about the woman across the room. You see the woman across the room, you think, She's so poised; she's so together. But she looks at you and you are the woman across the room for her.
self-esteem esteem
Don't be afraid of your own strength.
pain memories light
In all circumstances, I always look for the light and build around it, with little memory of pain.
clothes empowering want
I wanted to be an empowered woman, and I became an empowered woman. And now I want to empower every woman. And I do it through my clothes, I do it through my words, I do it through my money, I do it through everything.
