Helena Bonham Carter doesn't like being told what to do.
The 48-year-old actress - who has two children, Billy Ray, 10, and Nell, six, with long-time partner Tim Burton - admits she hates being ordered around and prefers to make all of her own decisions, especially when it comes to her wardrobe.
Asked about her eclectic fashion sense, the 'Lone Ranger' star told E! News: "I've had a stylist once or twice, but it doesn't really work out because basically, I don't like being told what to wear"
She added: "I don't like being told what to do, so there's no point. A lot of people suggest that I should."
Earlier this month, Helena revealed she struggled with low self-esteem when she first found fame as a teenager, but no longer cares what people think about her.
She told The Guardian newspaper: "I wasn't very confident; I was cripplingly shy. And, at the age of 19, you are all too aware of how people are perceiving you. I remember reading the first profile of me that was printed in a magazine and thinking: 'Oh good, now I'm going to find out what I'm really like.' But no. That's not the best way of judging yourself."

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez enjoyed a romantic date on Friday night (20.06.14).
The on-again, off-again couple - who first started dating in 2010 - were spotted leaving upmarket steak restaurant Mastro's in Beverly Hills, California after rekindling their relationship again earlier this month.
Following their expensive meal, the 'Confident' hitmaker, 20, whisked the brunette beauty, 21, to the cinema at the nearby Westfield Century City mall, where they went to see the new comedy, 'Think Like A Man,' according to the MailOnline.
The 'Spring Breakers' actress was spotted wrapping her arm around the Canadian star's back, as they followed two bodyguards out of the theatre after the screening.
The newly-reunited couple have been inseparable over the past few days, spending time in a recording studio together and at a bible study class on Wednesday (18.06.14), where a source said they appeared "smitten" with one another.
The eyewitness said: "They were very lovey dovey and cute. They came and left together with a few friends
"They sat next to each other and listened to the sermon and were smitten with each other."
Justin won back the 'Come & Get It' singer, who sought treatment in rehab in January, back after vowing to curb his wild ways and recently presented Selena with a £6,000 Segway in a bid to prove they could have "good, clean fun" together.

Anna Faris is "so proud" of her husband's Hollywood success.
Actor Chris Pratt is set to lead the cast of this summer's blockbuster Marvel superhero movie, 'Guardians of the Galaxy', as well as next year's long-awaited 'Jurassic World', and Faris - who has a successful movie career of her own - admits she is "so lucky" to have him.
Speaking about the star's busy film schedule, she said: "I'm so proud of him! He's been away, so that part's been hard - he's shooting 'Jurassic World' right now in New Orleans and our baby's not quite two yet. But it's exciting! I'm like, 'My husband's a movie star! What happened? How did I get so lucky? Does he still like me?' "
Pratt buffed up for his role in 'Guardians', in which he'll play Peter Quill/Star-Lord, and shared a sexy snap of his toned body on Instagram last year.
Faris says she loves her husband's new physique, but plans to "fatten him up" so other ladies won't hit on him.
She quipped: "I'm going to fatten him up as soon as he gets back from out of town!
"It's amazing. I'm so proud of him, he looks so sexy!"

The Housemartins will reform if The Smiths get back together.
The 'Caravan of Love' hitmakers - who split in 1988 after five years together - famously had a pact never to reunite, but have now slightly relaxed their stance safe in the knowledge their strict criteria is unlikely to be met.
Former bassist Norman Cook, aka Fatboy Slim, said: " We've changed it to, 'We'll only reform if The Smiths reform first and they won't reform until the royal family abdicates', so I think we're safe on that one."
Norman is now best known for his DJing but admits it has taken until now for his 13-year-old son Woody to be impressed by his work.
He said: "He's just beginning to realise now he's 13 that his dad does have a cool job."
And the 50-year-old star - who also has four-year-old daughter Nelly with wife Zoe Ball - is hopeful his son could one day follow in his musical footsteps.
He added in a radio interview: "He's just got a bass off his godfather, so obviously that's a tradition in the family I'd like to continue. Bass players traditionally are the most well grounded, intelligent members. And they get the best chicks. Always."

Lady Gaga has been blasted by PETA for dressing up her dog.
The 'Applause' hitmaker has come under heavy criticism from the animal charity for her treatment of pet pooch Asia, who has been seen wearing weighty jewellery and earrings.
PETA said: "Lady Gaga may choose to decorate herself with elaborate and even uncomfortable outfits, but Asia doesn't get to make that choice.
"Although it seems pretty clear that Lady Gaga loves Asia, we think Asia - and all dogs - are adorable without all the added flair."
Their comments come after the 28-year-old pop star - famous for her extravagant and outrageous style - posted photos on Instagram which showed the pup wearing a heavy necklace on its face.
PETA have been joined by other animal rights groups in criticising Gaga for her actions.
Dog's Trust veterinary director Paula Boyden added: "We are shocked to see the pictures of his puppy adorned with heavy jewellery.
"Dressing dogs in pseudo-human clothing not only ridicules and makes a spectacle of them but treats them as a fashion accessory rather than a living animal."

Harrison Ford feels "like a battered" old car after throwing himself at movie stunts.
The 'Star Wars' actor - who was recently injured on the set of the sci-fi saga - compared himself to a classic motor and admitted he brings it on himself due to his dedication.
Speaking to the Daily Express newspaper, he quipped: "I am like a battered old Ford.
"And I keep on coming back for more. If it doesn't look real on the screen than an audience does not believe what it sees."
The star - who was talking about his stunts before his latest injury occurred - insisted he is starting to know how to stop himself from getting too badly "hurt".
He explained: "Although i do my own running, jumping and falling, I always try to keep myself from being hurt. So I know what will work and what won't."
Meanwhile, he also admitted he never expected his big screen career to last as long as it has done.
He said: "I honestly never thought my acting would last thing long. All I've done is try to get scripts which interest me and make sure I prepare as well as I possibly can.
"After that, it's a matter of hoping that people like what they see and keep on going back. It's not an 'art'. I simply enjoy it as a great job."

Simon Cowell has deliberately created tension between the 'X Factor' judges.
It is said this year's panel - completed by Louis Walsh, Cheryl Cole and Mel B - is already strained, and it has been orchestrated by the media mogul.
An insider on the show's production team told The Sun newspaper: "So far the atmosphere has not been great to say the least.
"The only person who gets on with everyone is Simon but it's as if he is deliberately letting the fires build by being late and making everyone grumpy.
"Pretty much every single member of the panel - apart from Simon - clearly didn't want the other judges chosen for this year's show ... The theory is that his plan is to create havoc on the judging panel."
According to reports, the explosive panel has been put together to instill a sense of drama into the show, which "has started to run its course".
The source added: "[Simon's] the first to admit the show has started to run its course and it's harder to get viewers to engage with the acts.
"However, what does work are fights between the judges. He knows what he is doing. He loves being the master puppeteer."

'Mrs. Brown's Boys' star Brendan O'Carroll is hoping to buy a stake in David Beckham's soccer franchise.
The British TV star is a big fan of the sport and lives in Florida - where the legend's new club will be based - and he is keen to support his soon-to-be local team.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I'm hoping to buy into it. I'd love the US to do well at soccer as it would be so good for the game.
"It used to be a girls' game in America, but interest in soccer has really grown."
However, Brendan - who is worth £8 million - has ruled out a comedy collaboration with David, insisting he just isn't "funny" enough.
He said: "Beckham is not really funny."
Earlier this year, the comedy actor blasted his own critics, describing them a "donkey" rather than a "racehorse".
He ranted: "F**k them! I do respect critics. I know they've got a job to do, but they'll always be a donkey telling the racehorse how he should have won the race.
"If they want to be a racehorse, run the race! Anyone can criticise me all they like, but as long as they write [about it], f**k off."

Emily Blunt thinks her baby daughter is a good "travel buddy".
The 31-year-old actress took her four-month-old daughter Hazel, whom she shares with her husband John Krasinski, with her when she promoted her new movie 'Edge of Tomorrow' earlier this month and she insists the tiny tot is settling into her new jet-setting life.
Speaking to Ireland's RTÉ Ten, she said: "She's a good little travel buddy. It's tough to leave and go and work as this is my first time back since she was born but I just see her whenever I can and every hour, any moment, I have free she's with me and it's alright."
Meanwhile, the blonde beauty recently admitted that since becoming a mother her priorities have changed and she's going to be more selective about the roles she takes on in the future.
She said previously: "I think I'll be very specific about what I do because it does switch your focus and everything in me just wants to be with her right now so it'll be interesting."

Jake Gyllenhaal thinks Rachel McAdams is the "complete package".
The 'Brokeback Mountain' actor recently fuelled rumours he is dating the 35-year-old actress - with whom he is currently filming 'Southpaw' - after they were spotted out together on a number of occasions, and friends say they were instantly attracted to each other.
A source said: "There is no denying the electric chemistry between Jake and Rachel. The attraction was instant. From the moment they started working together, Jake and Rachel just connected intellectually and emotionally.
"For Jake, Rachel is the complete package. She's incredibly smart and well versed in arts, politics and culture, but she's not a show-off. Of course, it helps that she's gorgeous."
However, the duo are hesitant about taking their romance to the next level because Jake, 33, has had an on/off relationship with model Alyssa Miller since last summer, and Rachel is dating music manager Patrick Sambrook.
The insider told OK! magazine: "They are tip-toeing around the issue, but with them hanging out with each other all the time, the situation is bound to come to a head.
"For the time being, Rachel and Jake are in the flirting stages."

Nicole Richie gets up an hour before her children.
The House of Harlow designer - who has daughter Harlow, six, and son Sparrow, four, with husband Joel Madden - thinks it's important to get some alone time away from her kids, so she wakes up earlier than them to watch the sun rise every day.
She told People magazine: "I am up before the sun every morning. I like a good hour by myself while everyone is still sleeping. I go out in the garden, relax and have some hot water with lemon. Just take some quiet time before I start my day."
The reality TV star, 32, has recently developed a love of gardening in the mornings and admits she's turned her back yard into a vegetable patch to encourage her family to eat raw foods.
She said previously: "I just started growing our own garden. I'm home a lot and we're growing our own fruits and vegetables.There's so many things in food right now and it's important for people to know and be educated on whatever they're putting into their body."
However, it's not just Nicole's determination to eat healthily that is impressive as her choice of outfit while planting her seeds and bulbs couldn't be more fitting.
She said: "I love wearing my little vintage peasant dresses, but I garden in the morning and I'm really cold in the morning. I end up with a North Face [jacket], my husband's baseball cap, colourful sweatpants that I slept in the night before, and leopard slippers."

Lily Allen gave her Glastonbury ticket allocation to random villagers rather than needy friends.
The 'Hard Out Here' singer is set to perform at the iconic music festival next week and she didn't want to give her free passes to people who "never really appreciate it".
Speaking to DJ Nick Grimshaw on Radio 1's Breakfast Show, she explained: "I get a certain allocation, and because I am on the Pyramid [main] stage you get more.
"My husband has been in charge of ticket allocation. I have quite a lot of blaggy friends who hit me up for stuff all the time and never really appreciate it. I have all the calls, 'Can we have some tickets?'
"He has given them all to our villagers. There's, like, 25 kids from Canham who have never been to Glastonbury and who are going to have such a shock, and all my showbiz mates are like, 'Er?' "
The 29-year-old singer has also revealed she has been to the festival every year except one, and would swap Christmas for the chance to be there.
She said: "I go in hard. I was six-weeks-old the first time I went. I mean I would trade Christmas for Glastonbury.
"I didn't go once. But yeah I've been every year, even when I was preggers."
