Who are you wearing? I think the jacket may be Tahari [it's Ellen Tracy]. The tank top is J. Crew, and the pants are from Anthropology.
How do you describe your style? I don't like to look too conservative. I like things that are tailored because I'm tall, and my best asset is my small waist, and my worst of asset is my large [behind]. I hope it would be classically elegant and hip. That's my goal, and I think I'm getting there.
I think you're there. Thank you, except for the bad flip-flops. But they do have a leopard print.
Is there a particular character from any film that you identify with style-wise? I really like how Meg Ryan looked in that movie where her husband was kidnapped in Guatemala ["Proof of Life"]. I loved her style in that. It was an undated hippie look, but very nice and very gauzy.
Is it cheating that you're using a stylist now? No, all the stars do it. I'm just working my way up to what the upper echelon does. My stylist found me a lovely suit and she has a wonderful tailor. The dress I wore tonight, she had that tailored for me. The proper undergarments -- so important.
Really, she shops for your panties too? Oh yeah, the proper bra, the Spanx that I should wear. Spanx are the greatest thing to ever happen to women's fashion. They're these tight girdle things, but they don't hurt. It makes you look like you have muscle tone.
