thinking work-out challenges
I think it took me a little while to be true to myself as a designer, and in some ways I'm still trying to do that. I have to choose things that come naturally to me. Whenever I challenge something too much or try too hard, it never quite works out.
meat-industry decision limits
Whether you eat meat of not, you can be part of this decision to limit the meat industry destroying our planet's resources.
good-life hate sadness
You feel like everyone hates you if you've got a good life, now I feel maybe it's allowed because I've had my share of sadness.
fashion animal thinking
I think the moment that I'm very proud of is building a business without using animals. And, hopefully, changing people's perception of how you can do luxury fashion.
country growing-up kids
We always had our own vegetables growing up and now I'm doing it with my kids at our house in the country.
country london realistic
It's not realistic to live in the country at this stage. I've got a business in London. I beat myself up about it all the time.
fashion facts used
I used to get embarrassed about the fact I liked fashion. I still get a bit cringy.
plans
I don't plan massively in advance.
thinking animal murder
I think it's very wrong to have the mass murder, every single day, of millions of animals.
morning night eight
I literally have meetings at eight o'clock in the morning, and I finish at nine o'clock at night. It sounds pathetic, but I don't even have time to go shopping.
writing people trying
It's immoral that people make money out of writing crap, but I try not to obsess about it. I don't want to spend my life being angry.
animal shoes vegetarian
The really great thing about my shoe store is that there's not one dead animal in it.
soul taught mum
My mum taught me to have a soul.
children husband water
I feel like a different person since my mum passed away, like I'm driving a ship with my husband alongside me and we're leading these four children into unknown waters.
