Glamour’s December issue is available on newsstands nationwide and digitally (iPad and Barnes & Noble Nook Color) on November 8. Keep a watch as next week Glamour releases a complete list of Glamour’s 2011 Women of the Year winners!
LA’s The Place, courtesy of Glamour, brings you highlights of J.Lo’s interview:
About the possibility of a new relationship out of the public eye:
“I think to give something a chance, to really get to know somebody, you want to do it out of the public eye. You know the media—they want to rush everything.â€
About her fashion and style:
“The things I liked when I was, like, 16 and in the Bronx—jeans, cut-up T-shirts—I still like. But I’ve been exposed to so much now from traveling the world and seeing couture clothes. I used all of that when I created my new line for Kohl’s. My style has come from everything, from where I started to where I am today.â€
About her lessons learned about love and relationships
“I think I’ve finally learned the biggest lesson of all. You’ve got to love yourself first. You’ve got to be OK on your own before you can be OK with somebody else. You’ve got to value yourself and know that you’re worth everything. And until you value yourself enough and love yourself enough to know that, you can’t really have a healthy relationship.â€
