The Kardashians: reality TV stars, sisters

Today,  I met the Kardashians, along with 2,000 of their screaming fans. My interview with them was brief, but surprisingly engaging and fun. The girls even gave me a hug. Here's what they said about dressing with love:

Khloé
I think that’s a great theory. I would agree. Being in love with fashion, you want to wear the best because you’re in love with it. But being in love, you just glow. I think whatever you put on, it gives you that glow about life.

Kim
I agree and I think the confidence is important. Even when you're single too, you want to look your best because you want to be in love.

Kourtney
I believe it, too. The confidence it gives you shows. You can tell the way you carry yourself. You wear clothes differently when you're in love, and it's about that confidence.

Alexis Bittar: artist, jewelry designer, tattoo lover

"I would agree. If you’re super depressed and suicidal, you’re probably not looking good. But if you’re in love, in love with life and love what you do, it shows I would hope. I feel life can be complicated and nothing is consistent but if you love what you do, it comes across in how you dress."

Chandler Parsons: Houston Rockets foward, shoe lover, hearthrob

 "Fashion is everything and how you look is how people perceive you. Not a lot of people will get the opportunity to talk with you and get to know you. I feel like it’s good to give people perspective of what you’re about because sometimes they only get a chance to look at you and not talk with you. ... I’m in love with nice clothes and looking good and respectable. It’s about how you want to be known for."

Bettye Muller: shoe designer, New Yorker

"I think you are right. You do feel better and dress better when you love yourself. I think you also feel better when you dress up. I know I do because if I go around in sweats and water bottle every day, it's not good."

Iman: supermodel, fashion mogul, icon, multilinguist

"I wanted to be in politics, but in a way I ended up doing it because I’m in the politics of beauty. The images you portray are very political. I knew who I was when I entered this business. I wasn’t willing to conform to anyone’s idea of who I was. I only wear what looks good on me. I’m not a skirt girl unless it’s below the knee because I don’t like my legs. And if it’s below the knees it has to be very curvy or I look like grandma. I know myself and what works on me. That's what dressing like you are in love means. "

I could be ugly ...

I have been moping around in flats and all-black baggy outfits since before the holidays. I'm not at my ideal weight, and I know well the feeling of just wanting to hide from the world. I'm also having hard time managing a regular exercise routine with a crazy work schedule and fits of insomnia.

Today, I decided to snap out it, put on my favorite pair of leopard-print pumps and a cute dress with one of my signature jackets and get moving. In my head, a girlfriend's words:

"At least you don't have to worry about one thing," she said. "You could be ugly."

Serena Williams: Tennis champion, sister, fashion enthusiast

“I just think you should wear would you like.”

Zac Posen: designer, Project Runway judge

“It’s psychological and intuitive that someone in love is more creative. You have to love yourself. A great piece of clothing can definitely help.”

On his work: 

"Knowing a woman feels good in wearing one my designs is the most important part of what I do."

On designing for women: 

“It’s important to have women in your life if you make women’s clothing. I like creative women who love to dress. I’m not a snob."
