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

When a woman becomes her own best friend life is easier.

Beauty is perfect in its imperfections, so you just have to go with the imperfections.

Italy will always have the best food.

If you’re a good person, the goodness will continue through your descendants.

If you like trekking, go to the Himalayas or Peru. I love those kinds of trips. But it all depends on your own life and what you like and what you expect.

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.

Life doesn’t have a neat beginning and a tidy end; life is always going on. You should begin in the middle and end in the middle, and it should be all there.

If you’re really driven and you want something deep, hard enough in life, you’re going to get it.

O, You who are ever giving life to all life, moving all creatures, root of all things, washing them clean, wiping out their mistakes, healing their wounds, You are our true life, luminous, wonderful, awakening the heart from its ancient sleep.

This is your life – you must die by yourself, so for heaven’s sake, live for yourself and no one else.

You are much closer than you think to creating a life you adore.

Love is the energy of life.

I believe that a worthwhile life is defined by a kind of spiritual journey and a sense of obligation.

We will have to choose between the life we want for our future and the life we have left behind.
