“I do shop online! But I'm shopping online mostly in the home categories - One Kings Lane and Gilt.

“You don't need to spend a lot of money on stuff when you have amazing architecture.”

“I didn't necessarily want to be famous growing up, but I knew I would be a good famous person because I'm not offended if somebody comes up to me and knows things about me and wants to engage me in a conversation.”
“We're not handling things anymore before they arrive on our doorstep. I like to feel how thin porcelain can be, run my hand over a textile, see if I want to sit in a chair.”
