When it comes to brows, there's no one-size-fits-all approach. No two sets are the same and when it comes to aesthetic preferences… well, they can differ greatly. While some may prefer their arches to be thin and meticulously lifted ala the Y2K resurgence, others (me!) prefer their hairs to be laminated-to-the-gods.

I ’m sitting in a suite at the Aman hotel in New York talking belly rings with Dee Ocleppo Hilfiger. “I never got a tattoo, but I decided that I was going to be rebellious and get a belly ring,” she says. “There’s still a little hole there.” I tell her I also went through the belly ring stage. She might be one of the most stylish women in America – and married to fashion icon Tommy Hilfiger – but she’s also the kind of woman who you can chat to about anything.
