Obviously, it’s unapologetic glamour on the red carpet, but what’s your approach to style when you’re off-duty?
I really seek and crave balance. There are so many aspects of my life that are so full throttle and exaggerated in a certain way that when I’m not at work and when the stakes are not quite that high, I tend to keep it pretty simple, pretty nourishing. Very comfortable. But funny enough, I’m not comfortable unless there’s a little bit of edge there. I’m probably never going to walk around the city in my sweatpants, but I will find something as comfortable as sweatpants. I definitely have an off-duty mode, but I do it in my own way.
How else do you find balance in your life?
A very brilliant friend of mine and I were having a conversation about this, and she said, “I don’t connect to the word balance; I connect to the word harmony.” And that really resonated with me because balance feels like another thing on your to-do list. And when you’re not doing it, it’s like, “Why can’t I …?” As opposed to harmony, where you’re just like, “What’s the thing that makes everything feel like it’s on the same wavelength?” And so much of it has just been about learning to be present. And again, I’m not perfect at it. I’m a human being, and I’m still learning it, but I know that whatever I’m doing, if I can be fully present in that, it makes me feel better.
