More quotes by Iris Apfel
I don't pay attention to things like the talent for style. I don't meditate on things like that. I just do whatever I think I should do and go with it, and if people like it, then I'm very happy about it. And if not, I always figure it's their problem not mine.
Iris Apfel
I say, dress to please yourself. Listen to your inner muse and take a chance. Wear something that says 'Here I am!' today.
Iris Apfel
I don't believe in rules. It's different for everybody. Everyone has to make their own decision and find out what's comfortable for them.
Iris Apfel
In my view you can't go to the future if you haven't come from the past.
Iris Apfel
I think fashion today is horrible. Just open your eyes and look! What's good about it? There's no originality. 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
It's not easy to know who you are and it's very painful and takes a lot of time and that is why a lot of people don't want to put in the effort.
Iris Apfel
You can't just say, I'm gonna have style. You have to work at it. It's intuitive some people have it, and some people can work on it all day long, and it will never happen.
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!
Iris Apfel
It's more important to be happy than well-dressed.
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
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
I'm not a minimalist, as I'm sure you've noticed.
Iris Apfel
I'm making a lot of noise as I walk.
Iris Apfel
When the fun goes out of getting dressed, you might as well be dead.
Iris Apfel
I just never want to completely grow up.
Iris Apfel
I had to be my own person and live my own life if I wanted to be happy, and I just did it.
Iris Apfel
If you hair is done properly and you're wearing good shoes, you can get anyway with anything.
Iris Apfel
First you have to know who you are. That is the most important thing, as if you don't know who you are you will either get swallowed up or you follow some unsuitable trends and just become a nonentity.
Iris Apfel
Never be afraid to stop traffic.
Iris Apfel
I never just went to look for clothes and style I always find that wherever I go.
