A good night's sleep is always the best way to wake up and go to work.
Accept yourself, love yourself.
My goal is to be a household name, and when I do that, I want to help other girls become models, and maybe even launch a fashion line with my mom, like Beyonce did with her mother. My mom has such a good eye, and it's always been a dream of hers.
Don't be afraid to express yourself through fashion!
It takes time to be who you really want to be. It doesn't happen overnight.
I'm my own person, and I want people to know me for who I am.
Five years from now I see myself still working hard to get where I want to be, because I think big.
We always had 'Vogue' in our house. But, when I was around 12, my Mom finally took me seriously about modeling and put a stack of magazines in front of me, then told me to study all the poses. The ones I loved the most were in 'Vogue.
In a couple of years, I'll be the most glamorous woman, hopefully.
I don't want to be known as the black model. I want to be recognized as Chanel Iman, a personality.
I'm grateful to look the way I do. However, if I could change anything, I would like to be a bit bigger all over. Not much - just a bit.
No babies for me until I'm in my 30s! I'm focused on my career right now. I can't even take care of my dog.
I always take my time when picking out outfits at home, but I will say I can change pretty quick when I'm in a hurry.
It usually takes an ethnic girl - I'm not saying black, I'm saying ethnic, let's make that clear - twice as long. We've gotta work extra-hard to stay in the game and stay with the girls who do well but aren't ethnic.
I have had the privilege of working with the best in the business, from photographers to designers to magazines. There's not much more to ask for but I'm still looking forward to one day working with photographers Mert and Marcus, Tim Walker and Nick Knight.
You learn to be comfortable in your own skin, and your body changes throughout life, so you can't sweat the small stuff.
Music is everything to me. I wake up and go to bed with it. I listen to all genres, depending on my mood.
My taste in music originates from my culture and heritage, and from traveling the world and listening to all kinds of fun sounds and bits.
I’m 23 right now and I feel like I’m still trying to figure it out. Maybe in another two years, I’ll have it all together. So maybe 25 is the age at which a woman feels her most beautiful just because she’s survived her teenage years and early twenties.
I don't get facials. The last time I got a facial was when I first started modeling when I was 15 or 16. It made my face completely break out.
I'm just really tiny. People hate me, because I just sit. I'm eating, I'm eating, I'm eating and then I just... sit. And I don't gain a thing.
I want to do television, film, music and designing. I want to do it all!
I'm a Christian girl. I pray every night and before meals and before I go on stage not to fall.
That’s my next journey - to be a great actress.
When I know I have a huge shoot, I’ll just go into the sauna and steam out my face. Product-wise, I don’t really do much because I sometimes think products make me break out . I just use normal soap and water and moisturizer. My brows are really important to me but I’ve never plucked or waxed them. I’ll just fill them in with Anastasia brow kit.
