My first job was in retail at the age of 14, and I have worked in the industry ever since.

I realize I never stand out in a room unless I'm feeling balanced, centered and happy. It sounds really corny but it's very, very true.

I have known that I wanted to be a designer since I was 8 years old.

I laugh at absurdity hardest, then stories, then observations, then bearded men on roller skates.

James Bond is quite serious about his drinks and clothing and cigarettes and food and all that sort of thing. There is nothing wry or amused about James Bond.
