• Sierva Maria (Love and other Demons): laconic and devious, the mystical badass who causes chaos in a christian sanctuary, draws inherent passion from the ferocious stomp of african celebrations, reserved and secure with a lightly pulsing core of rabid mischief.
  • Legs (Foxfire): The maverick, coldly aware of the possible brutality, overwhelmed with excitement concerning her own power, her own effect on the world, cruel yet decisively loving to few, inquisitive and seeks the transcendental knowledge from worn homeless priests.
  • Oscar (Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close): Oddly precise in his lengthy examinations of the world, the kind of boy who seeks to study life and passion through the book, innocent enough to begin a relationship with a stranger without doubt, somewhat of a pedant, but charmingly odd.
  • Diane Von Furstenburg (she's absolutely everything I want to be. She's proud, finds peace in solitude and silence, not afraid to reflect she's a little bit of a gypsie, married a prince, completely independent and strong-minded, SO SEXY, believes women should be elegant and be their best friends. I love her. She's the idea woman, Wonder woman)
  • Dorian Gray (for his inability to feel shame when beauty kills. His ability to change perception of morality in and create principles where not only he is right, he is confident)
  • Josephine Baker (for her pride, life and courage)
  • Maya Angelou (for her words, strength and story)
  • Salma Hayek (she has a childish humor- both innocent and alluring. She's sexy and has careless joy & comfort with heritage. She's elegant and tan and ideal.)
  • Gloria from Modern Family (For comedic sense of pride. She has so many beliefs in ridiculous customs, like Salma Hayek. Strong and a hard worker, loves her son more than anything else.)
  • Alex Chung (for her boyish wittiness, skinny legs, style, awkward humor)
  • Elizabeth Bennet (for her fearlessness, her dare to be unique, her uncontrollable smarts, her desire to be an individual, her inability to acquiesce)
  • Empress Theodora- (former prostitute? check. royal and regal? check. saving a kingdom from rebels? check. "purple makes a fine shroud")
  • Lou Andreas-Salomé (for EVERYTHING)
  • Old African Dance Teacher (for her soulful character, her dance moves, the passion in her eyes)
  • Stevie Dance (her free locks, her easy manner)
  • Yasmin Sewell (for her neat lines, amazing style, sense of self, French-woman sense of care for the inside and the outside)
  • Stylish Yalie (for her ability to look cute when she sits in a coffee shop wearing jeans and a gray top)
  • Grace (for her natural approach to life, her amazing silver hair, her blue eyes, her fit and healthy aura, her intense stare)
  • The girl from Ipenema (for her way of looking past men, and only into the horizon, the way she breezes through life, being calm, collected and lovely)
  • Uschi (the way she actually doesn't care about anyone that's not contributing to her pleasure, she just doesn't worry and is the epitome of a kick-ass woman. she gets mad props for the names that must be filled in her little black book, for the way she embraces a unconventional lifestyle with ease, she's gone through death and life and everything)
