1. “Believe you are an infinite spiritual being with inifitely good looks. 2. “Dress for the life you want, not the life you have.”
3. “Release your imagination from current limiting circumstances (like money).”
emotional baggage really tones your arms. Also, I do pilates. WHEN DO YOU FEEL YOUR SEXIEST? Somewhere between my first martini and my third chardonnay. Also listening to Wagner. Übermensch and all that, you know? YOU ALWAYS KILL IT ON THE RED CARPET. DO YOU HAVE A RITUAL BEFORE STEPPING OUT? I like to pre-game in the parking lot with my friend Johnnie Walker. No one cures the jitters of a hundred cameras focused on you quite like him. WHAT’S YOUR TAKE ON SHOWING SKIN ON THE RED CARPET? You’re probably aware that a lot of reptilians – or, lizard people, I think that’s the preferred nomenclature: “lizard people” – you’re probably aware there are a lot of lizard people secretly running the world. In my opinion, lizard people are the biggest threat to global security at this moment, so I try to show at least some skin on the red carpet so the public understands that I am not a lizard person -- that I have been born into this position fair and square.

FOR THOSE WHO HARDLY WEAR ACCESSORIES, WHAT ADVICE CAN YOU GIVE THEM ON TRYING NEW PIECES LIKE EAR CUFFS OR MIDI RINGS? Accessories are difficult. That’s something I struggle with, although I think I am quite good at hats. Now, the best accessory is a handsome man. My advice is, if you’re looking to try something new, start with a handsome man. Then if the ear cuff doesn’t work, no one will notice because they’ll still be looking at the fact that you’re together. WHAT GOES BEST WITH WHITE JEANS? Yachts. WHAT SURPRISED YOU ABOUT MOTHERHOOD? Oh god, I was surprised how often people expected me to appear with my kids. What’s the point of a nanny if people expect your kids to be glommed onto you all the bloody time? Kids are cute accessories and all, but so is mink.
Great Taste Five times the People’s Princess was inspired by her kitchen to create looks that were downright Di-licious!
Saucy lady!
It’s fun to dress up like bottles. Can you think of a bottle you’d want to dress like?
Don’t cry!
Nothing dries tears quite like a great outfit -- literally! You can cry into your clothes!
Way to stick out.
You know what spreads easier than butter? Great style!
No upset here!
With the right attitude, even indigestion is inspiring.
Icing on the cake.
A spoonful of sugar isn’t necessary to keep this look down. I’ll have what Princess Diana is having!
