I never had any interest in being involved with the Boy Scouts.

Having a manicure pulls a look together. Hands are the first thing people see after your face.
I'm European, I wake up in heels.
My mum told me always to wear heels. If I'm not wearing heels, she says, 'What? You're in flats?' So whenever I see her, I make sure I have heels with me.
When I wear jewelry it needs to really mean something.
That's what I tried to create, even though they are new pieces. I wanted them to feel like very special pieces that you can hold on to for a long time. I didn't want them to be too high fashion, I wanted them to be more timeless.
Any job is a job. If you have to be doing something, then you're probably not enjoying it.
It's not all wet towels and naked women. I was so disappointed to learn that.

So, I got into the law enforcement game. I worked for an outfit called Newton Detective Agency for a while. I worked eight hours on the waterfront making sure the longshoremen didn't take too many things.
