Carine Roitfeld Quotes

I’m so tired of this vision of fashion of a diva with a big ego, and you think of big dark glasses to be pretentious and keep far away from the people Picture Quote #1

The true test of a man’s style is the haircut. There are some men who look good no matter how their hair is styled, whether it’s trendy or not. A man can change his haircut many times, but to pull off any haircut, you have to be very chic. Like Brad Pitt Picture Quote #1

Blogs are quite a new development - now, everyone wants to know you, everyone wants to know everything about you. And you can build a following that way. In a way, it’s a good thing if you want to create a buzz around yourself Picture Quote #1

If I’m doing something in fashion, I will try to respect the ‘laws’ of the business, but I will try to keep my integrity and my respect for the designers and for my readers Picture Quote #1
