I'm a very loving, kind person, but I can also be very honest, and I don't do well with drama.
— Lydia Hearst
In our home we have many movie props from old film productions.
Whether you're walking the catwalk or whether you're in front of the camera, there's no such thing as a signature pose or signature look or even a signature walk.
I am all business, I am all work.
For those of us working in fashion, it is very easy to add your name to a committee list, walk a red carpet and claim to care. But taking tangible, hands-on steps to create change speaks volumes.
I love Katy Perry.
I started at the top. My first job was the cover of 'Italian Vogue,' which is the equivalent essentially of winning an Academy Award. So, there was nowhere else to go from there.
I much prefer people who are very in tune with themselves, very musically inclined - no pretty boys.
I'm honored to serve as ambassador for Screamfest.
Every girl needs a pair of Miss Me jeans for that extra boost of boldness and fearlessness for whatever situation stands in their way.
I have a chameleon quality and I'm able to transform completely to different looks from different decades, depending on the hair colour or make-up change.
Standing out for being short is not actually a good thing as a model and it hasn't been a help.
I would never blame an actor for taking on a role. The only time that I think I have to question why someone's doing something is when they're either mocking or trivializing the events that occurred or making it more sensational than it was.
My idea about being in a relationship is like it's a whole other form of creation.
I love every single genre from documentaries, horror, comedy, drama, '80s, classic, I have it all.
If somebody were to feel the necessity to reduce themselves to a desperate state to achieve what they perceive to be their goals in life, people who work in fashion, who are models or photographers, shouldn't be judged because of untoward acts of others. As the saying goes, it takes two to tango.
I became interested in fashion when my mother did a runway show for Thierry Mugler.
Being a model is a large part of who I am, and acting is my life's passion.
Horror is one of the few genres that allows you to explore areas in film that normally you wouldn't otherwise.
A lot of my family going back were cowboys and barrel racers, and I'd say I'm 50 percent high fashion and 50 percent cowgirl.
I am definitely not a socialite.
I'm sort of loving the feminine skirts and the cozy tops, especially when it's starting to get a little chilly out.
Generally I prefer to stay indoors and workout at the gym, but I love to be active and go hiking, do anything and everything.
When I was little, my parents took me to the San Diego Zoo. I was about 5 years old, and I got a tour of the zoo that hardly anybody else has ever had.
Egyptian Magic All-Purpose Skin Cream - I heard about it from Michelle Trachtenberg, who got it from someone who used to do Madonna's makeup. I swear by this product. If I get any kind of scar or burn, this stuff heals it. It really does work like magic.
If you're going to go out, I'd recommend the Boom Boom Room. That seems to be the hot spot that everyone's hitting up during Fashion Week.
I'm thrilled to be working with Miss Me again as I stand firmly behind the brand's messaging to help empower women and help them feel confident without compromising comfort.
My face has a versatility that lends itself to different looks.
If anything goes wrong, it's important to have your education to fall back on.
Just based on my own family and background, I would not be in a film that would exploit or sensationalize anyone.
I sit down and I write what I'm thinking and what I feel - it happens all at once, I never stop writing.
Most people buy shoes and clothing, but I buy a lot of DVDs.
I had to learn how to dress and create an optical illusion where you're more slender.
Acting is definitely my main focus.
I think everybody is allowed, especially when they're telling a story, as long as it's not based on somebody's real life, you're allowed a certain liberty.
You have to keep in mind that fashion is constantly changing and every runway show, every designer and every photographer - they are going to have a different vision in mind.
Horror itself is such a magical genre.
I love Domino's. I hold a regular Domino night in my apartment. I'll admit that I get a little too serious and I'm quite competitive. I don't like to lose.
Like, if you're not confident in yourself, then you can't really look good on the outside.
I actually work with David Kirsch; I have the luxury of having a personal trainer.
I don't smoke, but people say that you get secondhand smoke. But this is a country that was founded mainly on the tobacco industry - tobacco and coffee. It's so surprising that they are now essentially making cigarettes illegal, when that is where the whole country came from.
Chris Hardwick is a good man.
Honestly, I think more people need to hydrate and drink more water during Fashion Week. It's the only way to survive.
It's much easier to create a high-end bag than a mass market bag that everyone can afford.
Because of the way I am built I photograph taller than I actually am; it's an optical illusion. The way you're naturally built is not something you can fake - you either photograph taller or you don't.
I wanted to be Barbie.
I am a rebel.
I always envision myself being a Hemingway type.
I actually will not be returning to 'Gossip Girl.'
There was a solid six-month period where I was going out on castings and I was laughed out of the room because I'm much more petite than other models.
