Tell everyone a little bit about yourself...

Caucasian, Chinese & Maori mix, born in New Zealand, raised in Australia & Singapore. Loves cats, dogs, snakes, zebras and elephants. Thinks clean water is a god given right & our failure to upkeep nutrition is mans biggest regret. HATES frogs that invade her personal space. Talks in her sleep and cleans the house when she’s pissed off… 1 half of the notoriously cool independent art fashion brand FALSE & it’s subsidiaries.

Favourite 3 albums of all time?

You’re killing me..just 3?? I love music…more than fashion even! This is so hard for me, but my hands down number 1 is always....
*Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals – Live from Mars
The other two constantly rotate in my top 10
*Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Fever To Tell
*The Prodigy – Their Law (Singles from 1990-2005)

iPhone or Blackberry?

Definitely iPhone! & hopefully very soon iPhone 4 *wink wink apple*

Top 3 blogs?

I don’t check out the fashion/industry blogs like I used to, I’ve found facebook connects me much better to all the info I need on releases and events, it’s like a one stop shop for what’s going on. That being said I check these all the time:

Meat or veg?

VEG!! Gonna go RAW, it’s just a matter of time.

So, we do kicks. Kicks is what we do. What were your first pair?

I’m tryin to remember. I was quite the tomboy as a kid so the one’s I remember probably weren’t the very first but they were Reebok Classics/Workouts with the green trim/sole, circa 1987. I loved those! I thought I was so tennis chic in them on my girly days. I used to do aerobics with mum in them, I’m having a legwarmers flashback too…oh the horror!

With that in mind, (or maybe not!), who’s your style icon?

I’m pretty simple, I like the jeans & tank get up but if there’s a style to be put together Kate Moss always looks great and effortlessly put together.

OK, turning to work… you have a chance to work with anyone you want, who? Why?

Tomas Maier at Bottega Veneta would be a true inspiration to work with from a creative standpoint. I’d love to have a home/studio/store decorated by him, his eye for design and furnishings would send me to interior design heaven and provide a platform for unparalleled collaboration.

At the same time I would be honored to work with someone like Jacque Fresco (The Venus Project) with the philanthropy of The Bill & Melinda Gates foundation to start making some real changes on a global scale.

Where do you find inspiration?

From past mistakes, I’m inspired to never make them again!

Now from work, to play: where can we find you in the summer time?

In an ideal world, I’d be traipsing beachly paradises in Greece or Hawaii..but sadly as of the last 8 years, you can find me at home plastered to my mac working in the tropical never ending summer that is Singapore.

Actually let’s better that, if you had to go and live in another country FOREVER, where would you fly & why?

New Zealand cos I love the place and have the most amazing spiritual connection to it, but I think I would love the South of France in a great big château with an orchard & farm.

Can you speak any languages to get by?

English…done pretty well so far. So much for the South of France though.

If you were stuck there, you couldn’t leave – what song would keep you going nuts?

Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Way Out

Err, what kind of nuts?

Pistachios and macadamias…I’m hard to please.

And you’re still there, still stuck in the perfect abyss - what could you just not live without?

My man! I’m one of those, ‘kill me I’m alone’ types so I don’t care if it’s the perfect abyss, without someone to share it with I may as well be dreaming.

OK, you’re out of solitary confinement, let’s have some fun - what's the first thing you notice on a bloke?

Intellect…ok ok I lie… eyes, then intellect.

And on fellow girls, what do you check out?

Eyes, Boobs, Shoes & in that order.

Everyone’s got someone right – so who’s the person you find hot but you really shouldn't?

There’s something way too sexy about Anthony Hopkins!

OK, work done, play is over. That was quick. Finishing up, mature hats at the ready – looking back, if you could give a younger version of yourself advice, what would it be?

“Who are you not to live up to your potential? When you doubt your worthiness, doubt the doubt!”

So finally, you may have already achieved a lot, you may have plenty more dreams to fulfill… but years down the line – how do you want your epitaph to read?

I don’t! It’s inconceivable!
