I want my mother to think - she's a tough fashion critic.
I don't know if I have a specific style icon.
I grew up with a mother who always had every fashion magazine stacked up on the side of her bed. When I was really young, I'd lie in bed with her, and we'd look at the magazines.
I find inspiration in what artists and regular people on the street wear, but I'm also very influenced by what I like to wear since I style myself.
If I see something that inspires me, I'll dress like it.
I get I style inspiration everywhere: the streets of New York, magazines... everywhere!
Fashion advice from the Tooth Fairy, that's great.
I know what women look good in. I don't think the rules ever change.
I used to read a lot of fashion magazines: my favourite was 'Nylon.' I used to cut out all the pictures from magazines, and I had this book where I would keep all of the stuff that inspired me.
Black high-waisted bottoms go with everything.
I want my wardrobe to be full of good clothes, so that when I'm deciding what to wear, I don't run out of options. I love shopping!
My mum is one of my style icons!
I love fashion but I don't necessarily have time to be looking stuff up.
I don't have a lot of style icons. There are not a lot of people today who I look to.
Don't be afraid to wear fancy dress-up pieces with your everyday denim jeans/shorts.
Pair kurtas with cigarette pants, formal pants or palazzos for a more relaxed yet classy look.
Whenever I'm on a book tour, one of the questions I always get asked is what to wear to various occasions.
I always knew what I wanted to dress like but that's when I became really passionate about it. We'd be in class and Google outfits or I'd doodle what I wanted.
An embellished top with slim pants is great, even for a wedding.
If you're going to walk out of the house in jeans and T-shirt, what can you do to make that interesting? Is it putting on a bright-colored pair of high-tops or a cool leather jacket?
Wear an unusual accessory to complete your outfit.
Style offers concrete rules you can follow. You can use it as a resource rather than a barrier to feeling good about yourself.
Combine leather pants or leggings with an oversized sweater or turtleneck and sneakers for a super-chic look. However, remember to keep the colors subtle.
