Who are you wearing? I just got this dress in New York. In a little boutique. And I like yellow, I think I look really good in yellow. I spotted this little store, and they were having a sale. [Husband and Phoenix publisher Stephen Mindich interjects "It's her favorite four letter word. Do you know what her favorite three letter word is? Spa."] It's Pookie and Sebastian. Prada shoes, and the bag is also Prada.
How do you describe your style? Eclectic, but elegantly so.
Do you rein yourself in with your clothing choices because you're well-known? Do I rein myself in? Please! That's why I always end up in trouble. Actually, when I was on the bench in Massachusetts, I'd come in wearing animal prints, and they'd all look at me like I was from a different universe. I like feminity. I like being a woman, and I'm a Latina woman, and I'm proud of it.
Is there an actress or film character who you look up to as a style icon? Angelina Jolie. I love her style. She was at an event wearing a beautiful black velvet dress that she had paid $25 for. I think she's simple, elegant, and sexy.
