You have to find your own style, and it's difficult to define what style is. It's not what you're wearing it's how you wear it. It's something very personal, and it reflects the way you live and your house, the books you read, the art you have.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Elegance isn't solely defined by what you wear. It's how you carry yourself, how you speak, what you read.

Carolina Herrera
Image
I love books my suitcases are always full of them. Books and shoes. I read when I am sad, when I am happy, when I am nervous. My favourite British author is Jane Austen, and my favourite American one is John O'Hara.
Carolina Herrera
Image
I walk in the park every day, and when people come and ask for a photograph, I say, Oh, my God! It means they recognize that I have been doing something right and they want to have a photograph taken with me.
Carolina Herrera
Image
Life always has a bit of a challenge in front of you, and that's what makes you fight for it.
Carolina Herrera
