Style-ish Statement

I thought it only right to start "Stylish PDX" with a mission statement of sorts. I started writing it and then realized that there are people who've said what I want to say, succinctly and with flair so, here are some of my favorite quotes about style:

“Fashions fade, style is eternal.” ~ Yves Saint Laurent

“A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.” ~ Coco Chanel

“It is the unseen, unforgettable, ultimate accessory of fashion that heralds your arrival and prolongs your departure.” ~ Coco Chanel

“Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depend on simplicity.” ~ Plato

"When in doubt, wear red." ~Bill Blass

"The dress must not hang on the body but follow its lines. It must accompany its wearer and when a woman smiles the dress must smile with her. " ~Madeleine Vionnet

"Know, first, who you are; and then adorn yourself accordingly." ~Epictetus (Greek Stoic philosopher)

All of the above summarizes my basic philosophy on style - - Oh, and also this:

Look in the mirror, like what you see...
