You have to observe a few simple rules in dressing, which are really not rules; it's just being appropriate. If you're 70 and want to wear miniskirts, 70-year-old knees ain't pretty!

I think fashion is just part of my life and if it hadn't been fashion then it would have been something else.

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.

It's more important to be happy than well-dressed.

I don't have too much time to shop. I have such a back log of stuff at home. I tend to get temperative once in awhile. I don't need anything, so if I see something that knocks me out, then I'm buying it. It's getting harder and harder because things are getting more homogenized.

You can't try to be somebody you're not; that's not style.

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.
