“When I was younger, I was mousey brown and started putting in highlights with each child. By the time I had my third baby, I was pretty much a blonde, and I stayed that way until I was in my late 50s.”
“I was a nerdy student.”
“Peter Lindbergh is the most charming man - I did a Gap commercial for him, and he was just so sweet.”
“Gluten is so ridiculous. Don't invite me to a dinner with someone who is gluten-free. I ruin the party.”
“I've never been scared of aging.”
“When you have confidence, you do feel like you're much younger.”
“I don't do a lot of fad diets or supplements and don't recommend that.”

“I'll continue working as long as people want to hire me.”
“Poverty makes you work really hard.”
“I have to avoid sweet food because it's my weakness, and it's really hard. What you eat will definitely affect your skin, so I really try to stay away from sweets.”
“I live by the seat of my pants.”
“I always have snack-y foods with me, like nuts and individually wrapped prunes. I don't like getting hungry. When you're hungry, you'll look for foods, and it's never salad; it's always muffins!”
“I would model when they wanted me, and as I got older, they wanted an older model. I was quite willing to be mother of the bride at 28. I was quite happy to be on the cover of a grandparents' magazine at 42; I have no ego about that.”
“I spend three hours a day working on my social network profiles. I think about the right people to tag, the ones who might generate new leads. It's my work, my self-promotion.”

“My personal style icons are Diane Von Furstenberg and Linda Fargo. For strength and their own style, Christine Lagarde and Angela Merkel.”
“I eat the basic food groups: fruits and vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy, good fats and oils. I do have butter on my bread because it's delicious. I eat meat, especially chicken, sparingly, because I'm not a good cook.”
“I try not to give advice unless people ask me.”
“I'm not such a huge hater of anti-aging things because when I put makeup on, I look younger. You can brighten up your eyes and look more glamorous and more confident.”
