I feel like now fashion is just part of how I think about everything. When I send out a mood board to our contributors every month about our monthly theme, there are photos from our fashion shows, but there are also film stills and album art.

From Tavi Gevinson

I feel like one thing that a lot of creative people go through is that they feel like they don't have the right to be creative or to put their stuff out there. I'm glad that blogging from a young age kind of got that out of the way for me.

From Tavi Gevinson

I'm very interested in film, but any more involvement would happen organically. I'm not really seeking anything out, just looking at projects that come up that interest me.

From Tavi Gevinson

My life motto is basically to lower your standards and expectations so you're never disappointed and never put any trust in anything, and I try to prepare for the day that I wake up, and everyone I know is like, 'LOL JK best long-running practical joke ever', so I've never really let myself freak out or get too excited about anything.

From Tavi Gevinson

I actually never liked writing on my own or in school until I'd had my blog for a while and realized I'd been writing every day for years.

From Tavi Gevinson

I don't know that a lot of boys read 'Rookie', but we get quite a few nice comments and e-mails from them. To say I'm devoted to making it girls-only is a little extreme, because I don't actively try to exclude everyone else, just make sure girls know that this space is for them first and foremost.

From Tavi Gevinson

A lot of people glorify and romanticize the idea of being an early bloomer: finding success very early and being a child star. But it can also be quite dangerous.

From Tavi Gevinson

It's great that with the Internet, there has come this sense of creative independence.

From Tavi Gevinson

Having your stuff online - some people think of it as gimmicky, but in a way, it's one of the most pure forms of having your work judged.

From Tavi Gevinson

I created 'Rookie' because I read a lot of websites that I thought were cool and interesting, but they weren't for teens, and I wanted us to have something that could be ours.
