If you don’t learn constantly, you don’t grow and you will wither. Too many people wither on the vine. Sure, it gets a little harder as you get older, but new experiences and new challenges keep it fresh.

More quotes by Iris Apfel
You have to know yourself and know what you can carry. If you're not comfortable, no matter how well dressed you are, you're not going to look right. I'd rather be happy and feel comfy.
Iris Apfel
I'm not going to be a rebel and offend anybody, but I'm not going to live in somebody else's image.
Iris Apfel
Fashion you can buy, but style you possess. The key to style is learning who you are, which takes years. There’s no how-to road map to style. It’s about self-expression and, above all, attitude.
Iris Apfel
When you're older, no matter how good your humor is you don't always feel perky and peppy. But if you sit home all day and brood about it, it gets worse.
Iris Apfel
Style means you have a real curiosity about yourself and then you express it. Having style is not copying somebody else.

Iris Apfel
I always feel that if you're gonna be uncomfortable and unhappy in something, just because you think it's in or it's chic, I would advise you to be happy rather than well-dressed. It's better to be happy.
Iris Apfel
I'm making a lot of noise as I walk.
Iris Apfel
I'll spend more time getting dressed than I spent at the actual event.
Iris Apfel
I think that if you have to work very hard at dressing up and it makes you nervous or uptight, then you won't look very well because you won't be comfortable. I think it's much better to be comfortable and happy than well dressed, don't you?
Iris Apfel
I'm a color person, I've never been known to play it safe. Plus I like big bags. My eyeglasses are so big they don't fit into smaller bags.
Iris Apfel
If you put something together and it doesn't look so good, the fashion police are not going to come and take you away. And if they do, you might have some fun in jail.
Iris Apfel
In my view you can't go to the future if you haven't come from the past.
Iris Apfel
Never be afraid to stop traffic.
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
When the fun goes out of getting dressed, you might as well be dead.
