You can’t define Miranda Kerr with just one label. She’s a supermodel. An entrepreneur. A mom (literally) and a “Nanna” (meaning grandma, figuratively). A New Age believer in crystal healing (seriously: She sleeps with a rose quartz healing crystal and “I clear it with the energy of the sun or the moon every three days,” she tells Harper’s Bazaar.) And she reveals all those facets — and more — in the magazine’s February issue.

The star, 31, talks about her move into high fashion after being known for her commercial work (think: Victoria’s Secret Angel). “He really believed in me in a world where a lot of people don’t,” she says of working with Nicolas Ghesquière in his role at Balenciaga and now at Louis Vuitton. “If you’re in a certain category, they keep you in that category. I started more commercially, and sometimes it’s hard to go the other way, you know?”
But again, she doesn’t want to be defined in any one box. She also has a beauty line, a teacup line, serves as the face of several brands and raises her son with ex-husband Orlando Bloom. And she’s not tied down to any guy at the moment. “I’ll go on a date here and there if it works. But at this point my priority is my son. I’m not looking for a relationship. I’m just not.”

She shares tons of good dating advice in the article (Should you sleep with someone on the first date? Is it okay to text or call first?) but perhaps most revealing is what she might wear for a night out. “Say it’s winter, and you have really nice underwear on, a garter belt, stockings, boots that come up, and a dress on over the top … No one needs to know!”
And actually, we spoke too soon. What’s most revealing (so to speak) about Kerr is that she prefers to wear no clothes at all. “I love taking my shoes off and being in the grass. Or sunbaking naked. I wish I could go skinny-dipping in the ocean. If I didn’t have to worry about anyone taking m icture, I’d totally be out there,” she says. “I quite like to be naked.” Like we said: You can’t contain Kerr even if you try.
