Don't underestimate the cosmetic power of sunglasses. It's worth spending a bit of money on a quality pair. I usually go for Dior or Louis Vuitton.

But I'm not the girl who changes into flats because my feet are tired at the end of the night. I go the distance. I go all the way.

Thanks to my mother, people tell me I look younger than I am, especially without make-up. And I suppose my father had a part in making me more frugal with my money.

I was always intrigued by the idea of bringing things together that are considered taboo or risque and bringing them together with something of high elegance and sophistication.

People who follow all the rules and chase every trend tend to get forgotten - they look great, but they're not as memorable.

I don't feel I have an alter ego.
