I go to Topman at lunchtime and stare at these beautiful, beautiful people who work there and who are so well-dressed. And I think: 'Oh! I want to look like that! They're amazing, how well-dressed they are!'
People think that buying something for their home which is up-to-date is chic, but often it's a cliche. I call people who simply give clients the current 'thing' stylists not decorators.
I'm hopeless at telling lies. I can attempt strategic ones in order not to hurt people's feelings, but then I'll blow it 10 minutes later.
I don't really do a big Saturday supper. I prefer entertaining in the daytime.
Sunday afternoon is for papers and writing.
It's rude to not try and look up-to-date. Is rude the right word? Yes! It's rude - rude to other people.
