I wrapped my arms around my knees and stared through the window’s wavy glass. The red velvet curtains were drawn around the tiny alcove, and I was enveloped by an odd sense of peace, knowing that in twenty minutes, the halls were going to be crowded; music was going to be blaring; and I was going to go from being an only child to one of a hundred sisters, so I knew to savor the silence while it lasted Picture Quote #1

My favorite color is purple. I have a huge velvet purple comforter on my bed Picture Quote #1

My beauty tricks revolve around eyes. For the early morning shoots, I pop eye pads in the freezer the night before, and when I take them out in the morning they are already cold and active and are great under my eyes. I keep my eye pads right next to my red velvet Ben and Jerry’s in the freezer Picture Quote #1

I guess, for me, what started me getting real excited about music was the New York punk and new-wave scene.

I knew about things like Iggy Pop and The Velvet Underground, weirdly, before I knew about David Bowie. I didn’t know what David Bowie was, when I was a kid. I thought he was like Visage Picture Quote #1

There are two sides of the Velvet Rope. Those who want to be on the other side and those who are on the other side Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I worked with just a background of a rock or a tree or black velvet, and just had to imagine the whole thing Picture Quote #1

I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion Picture Quote #1

Sashimi is velvet dust, verging on silk, or a bit of both, and the extraordinary alchemy of its gossamer essence allows it to preserve a milky density unknown even by clouds... my cheeks recalled the effects of its profound caress Picture Quote #1
