Whitney Port

“I love Alexa Chung, Diane Kruger and Kate Bosworth. They defy trends. They probably take more risks than I do but I would say my style is similar.”

“I mean, I used to think of fashion design as a kind of art project, all creativity and passion. I wasn't thinking 'big picture' at all.”

“I was so never the kind of person that saw exactly where I should be and then tried to get there. What I've wanted has evolved as my life has.”

“A great gladiator sandal is always comfortable but can dress something up.”

“I really want people to see me as a fashion designer first because it is what I've always wanted to do.”

“On 'The City,' I allowed the cameras more into my life and I ended up exactly where I was meant to be.”

“With Whitney Eve, I really wanted to dress everyday girls. I wanted it to be a more sophisticated than just casualwear, but be comfortable at the same time. All the fabrics are easy fabrics, they can be dressed up or dressed down.”

“We all have those people in high school and college that we shared that important time with, but don't necessarily keep in touch with. It's the same thing with the 'Hills' crew - they'll always be a part of my roots but I don't necessarily talk to them every day.”

“If your interviewer makes small talk with you, then be chatty back.”

“My personal style is pretty eclectic.”

“I don't want to be an actress.”

“When I was designing my clothing line, I would find a print that I love and then decide what to make with it.”

“I love what Diane Kruger wears.”

“I try to eat everything in moderation.”

“I do cardio for 35 to 45 minutes, whether that's on the elliptical or walking or running on the treadmill - I switch back and forth because I can get bored at times. Then, I'll go do some weights - I'll do some bicep curls, push-ups, sit-ups.”

“The key with Coachella is looking like you didn't try, but really, you know everyone tries.”

“It's all about balance, and recognizing that no one is perfect.”

“It's okay to be burnt out.”

“Being a twenty-something can be a difficult phase.”

“When I was on 'The Hills' I didn't get my personal life involved or my family, or my friends, they were never on it and I'm happy about that.”
