being-yourself thinking uniforms
I love uniforms because they allow you to hide. No one knows what you are thinking, so it's a very appropriate and correct way to be yourself.
light shopping bored
Many of us grew up with a kind of puritanism against shopping. But shopping can be much more than how it is cast. If you are bored or you have problems, it can be a way of lifting your spirits, by doing something light and superficial. Why not?
kids class wings
I was a communist, but being left-wing was fashionable. I was no different from thousands of middle-class kids.
muse not-interested knows
Everybody knows that I don't have a muse. I'm not interested in that.
type not-interested archetype
I'm not interested in types. I'm interested in archetypes.
children husband space
I have to say that my husband and my children are so tough, there really is no space for pretension.
fun serious my-family
I had no fun. My family was too serious.
lace obsession has-beens
I once tried to make lace - which has been a great obsession of women - unsexy. And I achieved it.
luxury people quirky
What people sometimes interpret as quirky is my attempt to subvert the concept of luxury by introducing elements that are considered ordinary or commonplace.
political trying important
I suppose I felt guilty not to be doing something more important, more political. So in a way I am trying to use the company for these other activities.
kids night week
Before I had kids, I was out every night of the week.
dream clothes style
We will always buy clothes because they let us live our dreams.
sexy hate i-hate
To have to be sexy? That I hate. To be outrageously sexy? That I love.
trying different introducing
I don't like things that are obvious and so I always try to introduce something that is wrong, something that is different. Just beauty by itself is too easy.
