My grandkids are amazing.

Red is my signature color.

You want kids to dream big.

Shoes can change an outfit.

Diana Ross... she's the bomb.

You can dress sexy without going too far.

I grew up with Cher and Motown, beautiful costumes.

I was from this small town, and my parents were poor.

Yves Saint Laurent mascara is the best I've ever tried.

You can find love at any age. You just have to go for it.

I'm the makeover queen. I love to do makeovers on people.

When Beyonce began singing in earnest, she was 10 years old.

Haters gonna be haters, and there's nothing we can do about that.

I loved Diahann Caroll growing up. I love a sophisticated, classy woman.

I always have Trident gum with me because I talk to people all the time.

I taught my girls to pick up their own suitcases. Pretty is as pretty does.

My girls do a lot of philanthropic work, but they are very private about it.

My mother was a very amazing woman. She was a very strong, remarkable woman.

In the music business, if you're not a fighter, you will get walked all over.

The music business inspires designers, and designers inspire the music business.

Beyonce has long, muscular legs but is tall, thin, and very curvy, even voluptuous.

We can still be sexy and vibrant, fashionable, classy, and fly until the day we die!

We have always been a family that's given back. We just don't make a lot of noise about it.

There was a time when I doubted if I would find love again. But I was determined to be happy.

I think, when you value yourself and respect yourself, everything else just falls into place.

Beyonce, Solange, and my adopted daughter, Kelly Rowland, and I have always bonded over fashion.

I'd like to reinforce that fact that if you put out positive stuff that that's what you get back.

I believe in the power of great clothing. It can evoke confidence, beauty, and a sense of glamour.

My mother, Agnes Dereon Beyince, was a seamstress and designer, and her passion passed down to me.

In high school, I had a singing group, and I designed the outfits and made my friends' prom dresses.

Hair color is just an expression of something different that you want to have, or something creative.

I don't understand women who don't love women. I love women. I just think they are magnificent creatures.

We pray before everything - videos, onstage, TV shows. I think that has a lot to do with being successful.

I not only enjoy a really great friendship with both my girls but also a close mother-daughter bond as well.

I'm a grandmother, but I don't want to look like a grandmother. I still want to look sexy and sophisticated.

It's easy to make clothes for a model, but when you can put them on real women and real curves, that's the test.

When you get to be a certain age, you want to wear your tops a little longer or pants that are more generous in the back area.

There's a misconception that you have to match your shoes and your bag. It can be so cool to add a patterned or off-color heel.

I'm a huge fan of Motown. When you saw them on stage, you saw sparkle... you saw attitude. They didn't have on t-shirt and jeans.

Beyonce was very shy around children, and one of the reasons we put her in dance classes was so she'd have some little kid friends.

When I talk to people, I always try to figure out what their talents are, what is wonderful about the person. You do the same with kids.

As a designer, I believe in the power of fashion. It has the ability to not only change how you look but also how you feel about yourself.

Louisiana is a special place in my family's history, and we are committed as a family to never forget the city and the people of Baton Rouge.

If you want to go high-end, that's great, but my dream has always been to make fashion affordable enough so you're not limited by your budget.

My 'Book of Prayer' is the most important thing I carry. If I'm tense about something or need to pray for protection for my kids, it always helps.

If you're going through something, just know that you're gonna come out on the other side. You're going through it - you're not stuck there forever.

Being in the music business, if we couldn't pull the fashions from designers and if designers couldn't use artists to show off their fashions, where would we be?

You want to have a relationship with a man, but, at the end of the day, you have to have some good ole girlfriends. When you are at your lowest, they are going to be there.

When we say, 'We are starving,' we have to remember that there are people who are literally starving. If everyone fed one person, one meal, we could make a huge difference.

When I owned a hair salon back in Houston, I did a lot of makeovers. Women would come in for a new hairstyle and go out with a whole new look. I know what looks good on a woman.
