"I grew up not really having anything, so the idea that I can take care of my family and my friends now is a really cool bonus."

"I really like to look like a history book. I can look 1940s, I can look 1970s hippie-chic, or sometimes I'll pull that '80s Brooklyn hip-hop kid with the door-knocker earrings."
