I ran across these quotes today, and I adore them all:


"Style is not a function of how rich you are, or even who you are. Style is a habit of mind that puts quality before quantity, noble struggle before mere achievement, honor before opulence. It's what you are. It's your essential self."

-John Vernou Bouvier III


"A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman, but loose enough to prove you're a lady".

-Edith Head
