I love a nice hot pink. I like thick lipstick, otherwise it doesn't look like you're wearing any.

More quotes by Iris Apfel
The fun of getting dressed is it's a creative experience.
Iris Apfel
It's more important to be happy than well-dressed.
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
I don't happen to like pretty things. I don't like pretty dresses. I like more attractive. I like people that look a little bit more offbeat. I don't like the classic pretty face. That doesn't mean it's not pretty or it's not wonderful, and most people don't agree with me, but that's the way I think.
Iris Apfel
I don't think dressing has anything to do with numbers. I know people of 30 who act like they're 97, and I have a few old-bag friends who are very hip.
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
My look is either very baroque or very Zen – everything in between makes me itch.
Iris Apfel
Fashion you can buy, but style you possess.
Iris Apfel
When the fun goes out of getting dressed, you might as well be dead.
Iris Apfel
Technologically I live in the 17th century. I have a very simple cell phone. I say I live through the kindness of strangers, because if they see something on the Net they type it out and send it to me.
Iris Apfel
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
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 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 never just went to look for clothes and style I always find that wherever I go.
Iris Apfel
Never be afraid to stop traffic.
Iris Apfel
When you go to a nice restaurant, you want to be relaxed and have a drink and everything, you want to look at people who look well. You don't want to look at some slob with an open shirt and a hairy chest. At least I don't.
Iris Apfel
My mother worshipped at the altar of the accessory.
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
The world is always full of promise.
