parent prams wells
I swore that I wouldn't be one of those parents who leaves a Bugaboo pram parked in the communal entry hall. Well guess what, ours is there right now.
tired thinking sick
I think people are sick of trends changing every six months - not because we're tired of them, but just for the sake of change. There is so much junk in the world: junk TV, junk movies, all those junk magazines with the same people on the cover.
kind manners excellent
Dressing effectively is a kind of excellent manners.
chemistry seasons
Every season, really, has their own chemistry.
ties suits
I like putting on a suit. I like putting on a tie.
party cocktails dinner
I am not someone who likes cocktail parties or large dinner parties, but I have to attend them often. I much prefer very small dinners with close friends.
bankers banking should
Banking types should take their cue from Gordon Gekko. Or pick the best-looking banker in their firm and copy him.
zara way sound
A lot of the things I did - it's not going to sound anything but egotistical - if I'm lucky and I did the right thing, they will be at Zara way before I can get them in the store, and I don't like that.
baths
I find a bath meditative and usually prepare myself for the day in this manner.
taken important different
I'm living the exact life I planned on living when I was five. My life has taken some turns and changes that I didn't anticipate, and it has brought me different things. I thought material things would bring me happiness, which they didn't. But through this, I have learned what things are important and what aren't.
signatures directors kind
Certain directors are known for a certain kind of beauty; it becomes their signature.
long calm deals
I'm a pretty calm person. That came from living in Italy for a long time. Nothing works, nothing is on time. You have to learn to deal with it.
seventies
The seventies is what I love. Soft, touchable beauty is what I love.
students responsible great-change
Students in the '60s were responsible for great changes, politically and socially.
