“Being in the business for such a long time, you can throw your name on anything, but I think what really is going to sustain and sell, and is going to live, is what you love. And jewelry is just something that I love.”
“I love my hair short because a lot of people think there's nothing you can do with it, but there are so many things you can do. I have had just about every color of the rainbow and have had just about every cut. One of my favorites was my platinum pixie cut. It's such a distinct look.”
