Sometimes I think fashion is going to hell.

I don’t expect to find inspiration. It just sort of comes. Sometimes you step on a bug and you get inspired.

More is more and less is a bore.

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

My mother worshipped at the altar of the accessory.

I don’t care what people think…I learned a long time ago…I was 19 and had a very traumatic experience….and I learned that I have to go to bed with myself at night and that I have to please myself…and as long as I don’t go out of my way to offend anybody that I love, upset my mother or my husband…I’ll do my own thing. And if the public doesn’t like it, it’s their problem, not mine.

If you don’t learn constantly, you don’t grow and you will wither. Too many people wither on the vine. Sure, it gets a little harder as you get older, but new experiences and new challenges keep it fresh.
