I think a pixie cut is so cute. I just think that everyone that has one is the most courageous person. It's so daring to do that! I get geeked out by people when they do that. They're awesome. Would I do it? Maybe.
— Blake Lively
I tend to like to make my statements more in fashion than in beauty, because what I normally respond to is when someone looks really effortless and deconstructed, beauty-wise, and they're fashion is really grand. Someone like Kate Moss is a great example.
I wear a lot more glitter around the holidays, so I'm always wearing different glitter nail polish or fun metallic eye shadow. It's the holidays - everything is more twinkly and celebratory.
People think I'm goofy. I don't have that Angelina Jolie air to me. I wish that I did, and that's an insecurity of mine.
In the olden days, a couple could be in every movie together, but it's just not like that anymore.
I was in a show choir. I can't sing or dance to save my life, but I was very passionate. People said my parents paid the choir director to let me in. It was actually the parents who started that one!
What can I say? I feel good when I'm wearing heels. I feel sexier, attractive.
If I wasn't an actress, I'd be a chef. I'd love to open a restaurant.
I love a challenge.
I think that when you smell good, you feel good. You know how when you're in a room and someone else smells good, you're like, 'Where is that?'
I grew up in L.A., but I was the only one in my family born there.
Creating something I can use is the best stress reliever.
When I see old movies with women in floor-length dressing gowns, or when they're going to the store and they've got a pillbox hat with a net over the eyes and white gloves, I'm offended that I can't go to the store like that.
You know that old saying, 'A way to a man's heart is through his stomach' - that's me.
I went straight from high school to 'Gossip Girl,' and both were very structured, scheduled environments, so I never had freedom to explore and carve my own path.
Emma Stone, I think, always looks beautiful.
People just wanna talk. They wanna create negative things about you and your life and make up things. You can't let them affect you!
When you shampoo your hair, you're trying to get the oil out of your roots, but you really want the rest of your hair to maintain its moisture. When you put coconut oil on the ends, the shampoo gets oil out of the roots, but also protects the ends.
You can't really go wrong as long as you're true to yourself.
If a guy can play Guitar Hero with me and sit at home and watch the Food Network and read magazines with me, that's good. I don't think there are many guys that's fun for. It's a lot to ask.
On average, I order about three meals for myself in one sitting.
Soy lattes get me through my day!
I've never been a big fan of gossip. Being a victim of it, I knew how much it hurt.
I have to learn to knit.
The most beautiful thing you can wear is confidence.
The Gucci woman can be the equestrian woman, the woman in the suit, the woman in the flowy bohemian dress, or the couture woman.
I've always been a night owl.
I was always observing my siblings and hearing stories about their lives that turned out to be helpful as an actress.
I feel like heels must be a workout! I know that they're really bad for you, but I run around in heels a lot and go up a lot of stairs, so maybe that's my terrible workout. I know that's not really a workout.
People want things with meaning. I know that because I want that.
My dad was an English professor.
If I could spit out a litter of kids, I would.
I always love somebody who makes me laugh, who's fun to be with.
I need good friends who can say, 'I love you to death, but you look terrible in that, and you need to change right now.'
When I'm playing a character, I don't wear perfume.
There are looks that I see on other people that I think would look horrible on me, but I think if somebody has the courage to be really daring and try something outlandish, then more power to them. That's just encouraging and inspiring.
When I'm in a relationship, I give my heart and soul to it and do it 100 percent.
Fragrance is a bit of a selfish gift because it's comforting when you're near someone and you recognize their smell.
I'm guilty of going to a fitting, then going out to buy the same outfit. It's been a problem for my bank account!
Each day, I choose my age.
I'll never forget the time my mother showed up with her best friend and two daughters, and all four of us dressed up in matching clothes, shoes and hats to go pick up my brother from school. I thought it was a fun thing to do, but we stepped outside my brother's school and he was mortified!
There are lots of actresses I consider to be my icons, from Katharine Hepburn and Grace Kelly to Diane Keaton and Meryl Streep.
If you want someone to miss you, go secretly and spray your fragrance somewhere.
I kind of feel like I grew up at Disneyland.
Forget the fake syrupy stuff. Melt down a bar of chocolate, mix it into some warmed up whipping cream, and put it on top of ice cream. Add some sprinkles, and you've got a delicious treat.
I always like hair being a little messy because I think there's something appealing about the whimsy of putting on a gown with any hair or make-up - just stepping into it, and you're ready.
My mother had very humble beginnings - to put it mildly. Her dad built their home out of timber that he cut down on their land. No heat, no air-conditioning - 'no foolishness,' as he would call it.
My first child is going to be the oldest sibling to the next kid, and that may change with each and every year. I'm looking forward to how one baby influences the other, and to my family as a whole, to every single chapter.
What do you do with your best friend? You do nothing.
I have a strong sense of myself. That gives me a sense of security, you know? If I define myself by things that are always changing, like the public's opinion, or what I'm wearing, or what job I'm doing, there's no stability in that.
