girl morning guy
I don't know, but I always loved that image of a girl putting toenail polish on a guy - her boyfriend, or something like that. Or a guy waking up in the morning and reaching over and putting on his girlfriend's shirt. Like Keith Richards putting on one of Anita Pallenberg's blouses, or Courtney Love putting nail polish on Kurt Cobain.
hate thinking dna
I do think that in order for a company to be interesting to the investment community, there needs to be a plan; there needs to be a bigger retail footprint. There needs to be this idea - DNA, lifestyle, words I hate.
clever smart shopping
Sephora's business is really smart and clever - I'm all for anything that gets people up and out and into the social experience of shopping.
gay remember i-can
I've been openly gay since I can remember.
clothes ideas suits
I'm not a model, so the idea of modelling a suit or clothes is weird in itself.
fashion thinking needs
I think it's an old fashioned notion that fashion needs to be exclusive to be fashionable.
thinking people influence
I don't see myself as being as big of an influence as other people seem to think.
believe mean men
I believe that anything can be for men or women. I mean, I've worn a lace dress before!
team directors inspirational-team
I always say that I'm not the director, I'm part of the team.
grandmother stable my-grandmother
I always say I lived my life with my grandmother. She was emotionally stable, and she was very encouraging to me.
punk grunge versions
Grunge is a hippied romantic version of punk.
missing kitchen tuna
Sometimes I miss hamburgers, I should say that. I miss the tuna pizzas at Mercer Kitchen.
quality needs louis-vuitton
The Louis Vuitton woman is more about a quality - a quality within some women that needs to come forward, to be noticed and recognised.
mom dad grandma
Yes, I always remember my dad's, mom's and my grandma's perfumes.
