You have to look in the mirror and see that what you're wearing looks good on the body you have now. Wearing a larger size is just wearing a larger size.

More quotes by Stacy London
If you deny the reality of your body or your life, you'll never be able to dress any of it well - even the parts you love. You have to see it all to work with any of it.
Stacy London
A lot of people have said that I'm super-snarky and mean. But honesty is the only way to get people to change. It's very important to be constructively critical - give people alternatives and you're giving them a new way to see themselves.
Stacy London
Style offers concrete rules you can follow. You can use it as a resource rather than a barrier to feeling good about yourself.
Stacy London
I know what it feels like to struggle with your weight, and it makes me understand why women get attached to numbers on a scale or a dress size. It doesn't mean that I have gotten over all of it myself, because I have good days and bad days just like everyone else.
Stacy London
Texture is something we forget - it makes outfits look very expensive. You can do a monochromatic outfit, if you're afraid of things that are more colorful and printed, and still create interest.
Stacy London
If you only have work clothes - the black trouser and ribbed turtleneck you got four years ago at the Gap - you're not participating in your own style personality.
Stacy London
The fact is, there is only one body ideal in fashion, and most likely, you don't have it.
Stacy London
I don't argue style on the basis of tastes. If you feel like you've reached your personal best, don't change.
Stacy London
We all put obstacles in our own path toward personal style, myself included. If we understood why we constructed these practical and emotional obstacles, we might move beyond it to healthier, happier perceptions of ourselves and, ideally, a better sense of self-esteem.
Stacy London
Fashion is an industry to make money. It plays into human psychology. We want to belong, we want to be loved. I'm not trying to demonize the fashion industry - I love the fashion industry - but style is about taking the control out of the industry's hand and having you decide what works for you.
Stacy London
Your personal style should evolve with age. To say you want the same style at 25 as at 45 is a mistake.
Stacy London
There is something about a well-fitted modern jacket that feels like armor. If it's cut well, it adds a dose of cool to anything you wear it with and does the heavy lifting when it comes to creating a flattering shape.
Stacy London
You don't need money to look fabulous. There are so many awesome new designers, so many designers doing collections for mass retailers.
Stacy London
Matching your hat to your shoe to your bag, or your necklace to your earrings, has a tendency to look dated. Mixing up your accessories adds interest to an outfit, and can make you look much more modern and polished.
Stacy London
Rules like 'don't wear white after Labor Day' or 'shoes matching the handbag' are antiquated. Modern women should feel free to experiment.
Stacy London
I believe every PERSON is beautiful. What you do with that beauty, how you develop it, is up to you.
Stacy London
Fit is everything. I don't care what your body type is like: If you're not wearing clothes that fit you, you can't have style.
Stacy London
The fashion industry [is] built on, and thrives on, our collective insecurity.
Stacy London
Not one person I know isn't concerned with their appearance. To trivialize fashion is to rob ourselves of a great tool.
Stacy London
Self-esteem doesn't come simply from dressing well, but they are both something we can control. It's a missed opportunity when women say they don't have the money, figure, etc., because style is such a way to help cultivate the way women feel about themselves.
