![]() ![]() I know it sounds cliché, but it’s never just your name or picture on a product, and I think that is one of the reasons I have been successful. I wanted to be part of the process and be part of the commitment. MS: I became interested in business and started working with blue chip brands where I would sit in meetings with incredibly talented people in different fields-whether it was marketing or creative from Nike to TAG Heuer. Instagram In addition to being an incredible athlete, you have this intense business savvy. It is a big part of my career and I play a very individual sport and sometimes it feels good to be lucky, but on occasion you’re like, “No, I actually worked for that moment to go my way.” When something happens to you in a moment where you think, “Gosh that was lucky.” But when you actually think about it you realize, “I worked for luck to come at this period of time, I just didn’t expect it in this moment.” That is kind of how I see luck. ![]() MS: Yeah for me I have always gone by the motto, “The harder you work the more luck you receive,” because I really do believe that you create your own luck. Do you feel like luck has had anything to do with your success? It looks to me like it’s thanks to your drive, determination, and skill. We’re all so busy that we lean toward something with which you can start and finish off your day.īB: I love that it’s called Luck. That is part of my lifestyle, as it is for many women. Some of my friends have said it’s a fruity, but to me it is a flower base, which is nice because I usually tend to go for fragrances that I can put on in the morning and carry with me throughout the whole day. MS: I would say it has a very light oriental texture with a bit of white flower. Later she gave me one of her bottles-an Estee Lauder bottle-that I loved using for many years.īB: You’re the face of Avon’s new fragrance Luck, tell me about it. You don’t know what’s going on, they are all so pretty and you are doing something your mom doesn’t know about. It’s a rookie mistake, spraying on like five at a time. My first memory of fragrance is trying all these different scents. I remember when we came over to the United States, I was still quite young, I wasn’t familiar with makeup or beauty or fragrance, but I remember my mom’s drawer, and as a young girl you always look at the pretty bottles. I am very Russian! So talk to me about fragrance-you spoke about your mother and grandmother, do you remember them ever wearing perfume when you were a little girl? I do like a cocktail with vodka in it!īB: Oh I love straight vodka. ![]() I also love vodka-it’s probably in my blood! Like borscht and Russian dumplings, and all of the different salads, it’s a type of comfort food.īB: My grandparents are Russian, so I love the food, too. MS: I grew up with Russian cuisine, with my grandmother’s cooking, so I would have to go with that. I really wish that I could be a good cook, especially for my future children one day. MS: I am not a great dancer! There are many things I am not great at. I haven’t perfected cooking because I haven’t had the time, but I really love food. BB: But you’re a businesswoman, model and a high-ranking tennis player-is there really anything you’re not great at? ![]()
