I never just went to look for clothes and style; I always find that wherever I go.
If you’re over 60, arms are not pretty, so I think you should stay covered up. But wear what’s appropriate for what you’re doing, how you live, and what your lifestyle is.
My mother knew if you bought a couple of really good architectural outfits and put your money into accessories, you could create a million different looks. She taught that to me, which I think was invaluable.
Never be afraid to stop traffic.
Jewelry is the most transformative thing you can wear.
I’ll spend more time getting dressed than I spent at the actual event.
The fun of getting dressed is it’s a creative experience.
These are things I love, things I’ve worn. I get more compliments on accessories than anything else. I think they’re kind of like herbs and spices. They give zest and zing to an outfit.
I was in art school since I was five years old. I’ve always been to art school.
The world is always full of promise.
I’m not going to be a rebel and offend anybody, but I’m not going to live in somebody else’s image.
I think I still keep my sense of wonder, which I call childlike, not childish, childlike. I still have a vivid imagination, and I like to try a lot of new things.
In my view you can’t go to the future if you haven’t come from the past.
My mother worshipped at the altar of the accessory.
I think dressing up or down should be a creative experience. Exciting. Fun. For me the key to personal style lies in accessories. I love objects from different worlds, different eras, combined my way. Never uptight, achieving – hopefully – a kind of throwaway chic.
Everything that’s happened to me, nothing’s been planned. I’ve never had a business plan. I just kind of fell into it, and I liked it, and I took a chance. I took a lot of chances in my life.
I love a nice hot pink. I like thick lipstick, otherwise it doesn’t look like you’re wearing any.
I don’t count myself as a fashionista because I do a lot of other things. That’s just a small part of my life.
I think fashion is just part of my life and if it hadn’t of been fashion then it would have been something else.
I’m not a minimalist, as I’m sure you’ve noticed.
