I look much more civilized than I actually am.
I love vintage and prints.
One of my most sentimental items is my grandmother's engagement ring that my mom gave me a few years ago. It's a Victorian-style setting that's closed in the back, so it doesn't sparkle the way diamonds do now. I wear it as a pendant.

I am a control freak.
We don't leave home without my daughter's doll La-La. She looks like a bit of a rag, but India is obsessed with her.

I'm a designer, not a businesswoman.
I love imagining being someone else in another time.

I always have a camera now that I've got a kid, but I don't think I've got one picture of anyone other than my daughter.
I make sure I carve out time to be with my daughter.
I went camping in the Maasai Mara and we moved site every night. I had no idea how spectacular it would be, how removed from ordinary life, or how many animals we would see.
