Being the ideal of a strong woman means utilizing all the things that God gives you. People are always saying to me, 'You're a strong female, so why are you wearing a bikini on the cover of that magazine?' Being a strong woman is misconstrued to be something evil and ugly.

For me, saying 'I'm bossy' is a cute, tongue-in-cheek way of saying that I'm in control of my life.

I can't live without Eucerin cream, lip gloss, gum, nail polish, and sparkly things.

I don't ever want to part with any of my shoes. They all have a special place in my heart because they say something about who you are today.
