If you don't have any individuality and you're happy just being one of the girls (or boys) be my guest. I'm not the fashion police. I won't fault you.

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.

To find out who you are is like putting yourself on a psychiatric couch, but you have nobody to help you. Really it isn't easy. I was talking with my nephew this morning and he gave me one of the best quotes I've heard in years 'Personal style is curiosity about oneself.'

When the fun goes out of getting dressed, you might as well be dead.

I was never hurt by what anybody said about my clothes, because I dress to please myself. If somebody doesn’t like what I’m wearing, it’s their problem, not mine
Iris Apfel
Image
I find that if I get up and push myself, I get lost in what I'm doing, and I forget about everything else until I stop doing it.

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.

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

I say, dress to please yourself. Listen to your inner muse and take a chance. Wear something that says 'Here I am!' today.

I don't have any rules, because I would only be breaking them, so it's a waste of time
Iris Apfel
Image
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.

Never be afraid to stop traffic.

I just never want to completely grow up.

In my view you can't go to the future if you haven't come from the past.
Iris Apfel
Image
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.

Image
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
Image
Style means you have a real curiosity about yourself and then you express it. Having style is not copying somebody else.

I'm delighted that gay people now want to get married and I say why not! It's nobody's business and I would happily give my blessing.

I'll spend more time getting dressed than I spent at the actual event.

If you hair is done properly and you're wearing good shoes, you can get anyway with anything.
