When I was seven months pregnant with my son, my mother and I took a trip to El Salvador, where she's from. Frequent visits with her to see my extended family have taught me how different life can be if you are born into poverty.

Mothers need mothers. Let's be there for one another.
In many countries, women aren't jubilant when they learn they are pregnant. Quite the opposite - they're terrified.
I have good skin, but it's dry - drier than you would think, considering I have Latin skin. It's fairly transparent, too, so I'm constantly trying to give it nourishment and moisture, but nothing really holds.
When I was 18, and my looks were what I was - and all that I was - it did feel very limiting.
I remember doing a shoot for Herb Ritts, hanging off the Eiffel Tower - that wasn't your usual day at the office. It was terrifying, and in the end, you couldn't really tell how high I was because the photographer was scared of heights, so he was quite far away from me.
With every passing year, I feel more fulfilled.
Getting older is baggage for so many people but I don't spend time on things I can't control. Wrinkles don't scare me; they're a part of life, and I will and do embrace them, but I look at surgery, and that scares me.
Fashion is all about references. All these names being thrown around.
I was a regular kid with a normal family life.
