“Personal style is accepting who you are.”

You are the one that possesses the keys to your being. You carry the passport to your own happiness.

The biggest mistake a woman can make is not to be herself in public or private.

We need to encourage designers and agencies to be responsible. We need to make sure everyone is sensitive to the issues. But to calculate the girls’ body mass – I personally think it is demeaning.

My favorite days are the ones where I deal only with my own team, design, marketing, working on the next accessories collection.

Insecurity is a waste of time.

One of the most important things about fashion is to dress as well as you can, look as attractive as you can, and at the same time be comfortable with yourself. Be easy about your clothes; forget about them.

Style is something each of us already has, all we need to do is find it.

I wanted to be a certain kind of woman. I became that kind of woman.

The older you get, the more you should learn to love life and appreciate the beauty that comes with age.

It’s the woman you should remember, not the dress, ever.

Don’t be afraid of your own strength.

I always wanted to be a femme fatale. Even when I was a young girl, I never really wanted to be a girl. I wanted to be a woman.

For me, traveling and living are the same. How you travel is a symbol of your life.

I was born in Belgium. I went to school in England and in Switzerland, then I came to America, so I really feel like I am a citizen of the world.

The most important relationship in your life is the relationship you have with yourself. Because no matter what happens, you will always be with yourself.

The most important relationship is the one you have with yourself.

Accept – then act. Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it.

Loneliness is still inevitable, it must be accepted as a part of yourself.

The moment that judgement stops through acceptance of what it is, you are free of the mind. You have made room for love, for joy, for peace.

We’re a creation of words, constantly looking for acceptance in places we don’t belong.

Forgiveness comes after understanding & understanding comes after acceptance.

Family is something your heart accepts, not something your blood relates.

To choose a plain life, I choose neither to lose and nor do I gain, If happiness is not in my destiny, I refuse to accept pain.

Never accept other’s people limits as your own.
