Nothing makes you look older than attempting to look young. You can fool anyone, apart from the young. The worst are the lip operations.

During the golden age of movie stars, there were plenty of actresses who were deemed unattractive at the start of their careers, but struggled and finally appeared more beautiful and more iconic. Sometimes that idea of being truly iconic has something to do with not necessarily being beautiful and thus trying harder.

My life is based on change. What I say is OK for the next ten minutes, then I change my mind.
Karl Lagerfeld

Only the minute and the future are interesting in fashion.

No, I'm not a French designer either. I'm from nowhere. I'm a European, old European is all I am.

Buy what you don’t have yet, or what you really want, which can be mixed with what you already own. Buy only because something excites you, not just for the simple act of shopping.
