People associate pageants with glamour, where there are celebrities walking on the ramp wearing beautiful gowns, heels and make-up - but that's just one aspect.

I have an ocean of opportunities awaiting me and once I am back from Miss World, I want to explore whatever life has to offer.

The use of sanitary pads and the dos and don'ts should be discussed with openness so as to make a hygienic and healthy life for the women.

Health and hygiene are a basic personal need for all.

When you do what you love, you do not feel the pressure.

When Nate and I got married, instead of flowers we had these quartz and rock crystals everywhere.

I'm really proud of my partnership with Pottery Barn Kids.

Not only as designers, but as creatives, we're all about the importance of creating that super chic space that feels like a million bucks without having to spend a million bucks.

We are huge fans of T.J. Maxx at our house.

I did everything, I thought I was going to be in marketing, then I thought advertising then I thought I was going to be an architect and then I was like 'you know what, let me just be a soap star!'

When I look back, there was obviously the arch of my creativity and when I was young, I used to go to open homes with my mother and I used to imagine how I could make the space better and how people would live in it.

Rachel Zoe is all about timeless.

My husband is so gregarious and open and funny and such a people person.

I'm the total organizer. Everything's got a system. It's in order.

Your home is a kind of a reflection of your family, your life, where you're at, where you want to be, so I love to entertain people in it.

I am a huge fan of porcelain in kitchens. It's an easy, interesting material.

People want to create a space that feels like them - one that's deeply rooted in their personality. That's important. Your space is an opportunity to tell your story and showcase your experiences. That's why I think every material - down to your faucet - needs to serve a function and feel personal.

Having been married and having stood up in front of people and had my own wedding, I understand the importance of that ceremony and the choice that you're making to spend your life with somebody and tell everybody in your life why.

There are so many moving parts to a wedding, and I, it turns out, am a bit of a perfectionist.

So many people move in with somebody and try to hold on to who they were before they were with that person and that's not what the space is about. You have to allow it to become the both of you.

My entire twenties were filled with decisions that make me think, 'You had to go there, huh?' But that's part of exploration and I think a lot of the most beautiful moments of my life and a lot of the most amazing things have come out of some of the most tumultuous times.

The beautiful gift of my husband is that he saw me the way I've always wanted to be seen and there's something really powerful to that. When you find true love I really believe that that's what it is at its core.

I once hosted a dinner party where I had two guests with some serious food restrictions - one was vegan and the other didn't eat red meat... steak and fish were our dinner. Now I always serve family style with a variety of food groups - so there is something for everyone. Always ask your guests if they have any allergies.

I always want there to be room for people to connect. That is so important, especially in an office.
