Nina Dobrev

“I love fashion, and I love clothes, and so collaborating and putting pieces together is a passion that I have.”

“Starving to be skinny isn't my thing. When I don't eat, it affects my mood! On-set, I fuel up with small meals and I'm always grabbing high-protein snacks, like almonds. Chai lattes with espresso also keep me going.”

“When I fly, I never check my bags. I bring a carry-on, an eye pillow, noise-canceling headphones, a big pillow and a blanket.”

“The 'Degrassi' producers were very supportive. They sent me flowers when I got 'The Vampire Diaries,' and then as soon as it premiered and got the great numbers that it did, I got another large bouquet of flowers from them.”

“I try to eat healthy.”

“I'm progressive in some ways, old-fashioned in others. I like it when guys hold the door open and are sweet and thoughtful.”

“I know a lot of people dread going to work every morning, but my work is playing pretend and doing stunts and screaming. It's a lot of fun and I get to play dress up. Every day is exciting and different and new and cool. I couldn't be more grateful.”

“Even though I'm big on recipes, I love to make up my own dishes and when you take a risk in the kitchen, you learn a lot about food!”

“For like everyday, just kind of hanging out, I love flannels. Part of my closet, there's a whole section of flannels because I love them so much. Slouchy, oversized hats and fedoras. I just got these 2 amazing hats that I really love, blue and gold trim with woven material by D&Y. I love D&Y hats.”

“Actually... I'm starting a new thing and rebelling against ridiculously high heels. It's inhumane.”

“I try not to read best-dressed lists or anything like that.”

“I mean everybody's got ex-boyfriends and girlfriends. Everybody's got baggage.”

“I was kind of a jock in school. Beauty wasn't something I spent a lot of time on.”

“I have a flat tummy, but I'm not rock hard. If I'm going to be in a bikini, I'll train more and skip desserts for a couple of weeks. But usually, I work out to feel good.”

“To be honest with you, I literally don't even know how to style my hair unless I'm doing an event because I rely on hair stylists.”

“After going to Australia, it's hard to go anywhere after that. I want to move there. I'm obsessed with it.”

“I'm kind of a globetrotter. I've been traveling since I was born and living in different locations.”

“It's just a great brand with great clothes. I'm just excited they asked me to be part of Penshoppe.”

“The 'Degrassi' producers were very supportive. They sent me flowers when I got 'The Vampire Diaries,' and then as soon as it premiered and got the great numbers that it did, I got another large bouquet of flowers from them. Every time I go back to Toronto, I see them and hang out with them.”

“In my day-to-day life, I'm kind of a tomboy. I like being comfortable.”
