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 Read Quote
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. Stacy London Read Quote

Style is not a reward for the skinny. It’s not, ‘iI I’m rich, thin and young.’ You may not like your size, but then don’t invest in leather leggings. Let yourself want the expensive bag and really love it and show it off and have a ball with it. Stacy London Read Quote
