More quotes by Iris Apfel
There are so many empty headed people in the fashion business who take themselves way too seriously and I don't think I am at all like one of them. To me there are lots more important things in the world than just having the right shoes!

Here and there, there is, but in general, en masse, there's very little creativity and very little originality. It's kind of boring. Everybody looks alike. Everybody seems to strive to look alike.

Iris Apfel
I never had a fondness for gems or the extravagance of Harry Winston or Van Cleef & Arpels. I've always liked the more flamboyant, imaginative things. I lusted after costume jewelry. My husband was a very lucky man.
Iris Apfel
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.
Iris Apfel
I think if women put some more of the time and money they put on their heads in their heads, they’d be better off.
Iris Apfel
You're not pretty, and you'll never be pretty. But, it doesn't matter. You have something much better. You have style.
Iris Apfel
I love a nice hot pink. I like thick lipstick, otherwise it doesn't look like you're wearing any.
