BLAKE LIVELYI always like hair being a little messy because I think there’s something appealing about the whimsy of putting on a gown with any hair or make-up – just stepping into it, and you’re ready.
BLAKE LIVELYI have a strong sense of myself. That gives me a sense of security, you know?
BLAKE LIVELYMy greatest passion is my personal life.

BLAKE LIVELYThe food, the lesson, the chef, the ingredients – all the best of the best. I see why Le Cordon Bleu is world-renowned.

BLAKE LIVELYCreating something I can use is the best stress reliever.
