My future's so bright, I gotta wear shades.

I don\'t think that on a daily basis, people need to be so concerned with others think. When someone comes forward and is an individual, such as a Lady Gaga or a Katy Perry, people respond to them because there is that sense of innocence. It\'s obviously dress up and theatre. I never lost that I think part of that is growing up gay and part is growing up overweight. You never lose that, and I never want to lose touch with that whimsy, that sense of innocence. I also love the reaction it elicits in people. I like that it makes other people happy.

When you hear fear knocking on the door, most of the time when you answer it there's nothing there. It's just you holding yourself back.

I believe the way we dress on a daily basis is our message we put out to the world. People tweet me all the time that I dress like a clown. That\'s the point. Those are characteristics I\'ve adapted because it makes me happy. I like it when people think I dress like a clown or a five-year-old kid.

I tried to assimilate and mix myself in with everybody, but I still stood out because of my mannerisms, the way I spoke, my interests, the way I walked, all those things that make us stand out in a crowd. Then I got to a point where I stopped caring, because people were calling me names no matter what, so I thought I might as well just do what I wanted to do.

If you are going through something with one of your parents, you know that there is this feeling inside you constantly that something is wrong. Even if you want to pretend that it doesn\'t matter to you or you don\'t care, the truth of the matter is that you do, because they are your parents and you love them.

Being on the red carpet is both fun and a little nerve wracking, but more fun.

I love New York! It\'s probably my favorite city in the entire world.

If you do a smoky eye, chances are you will not want to do a strong lip as well. It\'s never good to gild the lily.

Being fashionable does not mean you have to drain your bank account.

I love working with Rashida Jones. We just have so much fun together.

Wearing a great shoe is essential for me.

Paris is one of my favorite cities, but Paris during Fashion Week is everything!

I was not expecting my sister to ask me to be her best man. I was so honored.

I sing in full voice in the car and have a tendency to harmonize badly.

I love Shay Mitchell. She is so beautiful, talented, and sweet.

Peter Som is one of my favorite designers. I love his clothes so much.

When Kate Spade New York told me that we would be going to Dubai to celebrate the opening of two stores there, I was so thrilled - Dubai has been a place that I have wanted to visit for quite some time. There was something mysterious about Dubai that I wanted to see for myself so I could draw my own conclusions.

As a stylist, it is important for me to always steer my clients in the right direction and to push them when I feel it is necessary.

I would love to work with Julia Roberts at some point.

It\'s very rare that I get really upset about something my assistants have done.

Studs are the easiest way to add some edge to your outfit.

In this day and age of texts, Twitter, and Facebook, we are very rarely surprised by anything anymore - something always leaks out and gets spoiled.

My hope always when I am working with a new client is that I will cultivate a relationship with them: develop a dialogue and a way of working. This makes it easy for a star to trust you.

I shop online mostly. I like to shop from the comfort of my own home without a sales person bugging me.

Everyone should have a great leather jacket in their wardrobe. It is perfect to wear with a T-shirt and jeans and great pair of high tops.

I love wearing bow ties for no particular reason.

I am a sale shopper. I love a discounted item.

I believe that things should be let go once they are discussed. Apology accepted. End of story.

I like to communicate on my Instagram page with people: use it as a window to my world.
