About style from Carine Roitfeld

Fashion stopped being a matter of money a long time ago; it's a matter of taste. These days, even women with less money can dress well. I was always saddened by the idea that elegance was only something for a minority. It's about style.





 You can't learn how to be elegant; you can only learn how to avoid mistakes. The rest is instinct. Elegance is about the way you cross your legs, not the label or the newest clothes from the latest collection.





  It's often the case that what a women reads makes her more attractive and more elegant than what she wears.





  From a very early age, French women learn not to exaggerate. Yves Saint Laurent once said that the purpose of clothes is to make women more beautiful but that a coat must never attract more attention than the woman wearing it.





 When you look in the mirror, you have to be happy with yourself, remain young at heart and keep that rock 'n' roll attitude.





 ♥  High heels give you power. You move differently, sit differently and even speak differently.





If you don't want to make any mistakes, buy black clothes. That's always good. And from age 50 on, you can slowly start adding a little beige. That's softer. Every five years, you should take a critical look at your own wardrobe and, if necessary, eventually swap your bikini for a one-piece swimsuit.

  1. Верно, быть стильной совсем не сложно :)
    А про вариант носить черное... Это, конечно, всегда хорошо выглядит, проще сочетать и пр., но как-то это скучно и однообразно, и если весь гардероб черного цвета - мне кажется, это выглядит удручающе. Нужны, по крайней мере, очень яркие аксессуары, с которыми тоже можно пролететь.
