It’s no wonder that Christianity is not very attractive. I mean, how many people do you know in a Western culture that’s going to go, ‚Yeah, give me some of that?‘

It never mattered to me that people in school didn’t think that country music was cool, and they made fun of me for it – though it did matter to me that I was not wearing the clothes that everybody was wearing at that moment. But at some point, I was just like, ‚I like wearing sundresses and cowboy boots.‘

The concept of commercialism in the fashion and art world is looked down upon. You know, just to think, ‚What amount of creativity does it take to make something that masses of people like?‘ And, ‚How does creativity apply across the board?‘

Clothing & fashion are kind of my security blanket, almost.

The fashion I’ve acquired over the years is so sacred to me – from costumes to couture, high fashion to punk wear I’ve collected from my secret international hot spots. I keep everything in an enormous archive in Hollywood.

You’d be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap!

I love soft-cotton white T-shirts.

I love dresses, and I’ve definitely thought about designing them someday. I just want to make sure that I wait until the time is perfect and I can do it right.

If I’m in a bad mood, or if I’m uncomfortable, it’s probably what I’m wearing that’s making me feel that way.

Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new.

Ever notice how irons have a setting for permanent press? I don’t get it.

Sometimes I can’t figure designers out. It’s as if they flunked human anatomy.

I wouldn’t say that anyone in fashion is on my side. I don’t think there’s anyone on my side.

I cap myself when I shop; I don’t like to spend extravagant amounts on clothes. But, I do get lent clothes for events, it’s scary to wear something so expensive, but I feel really pampered.

I can tell you all kinds of moral tales, but fashion and reality are vaguely different.

Bravery never goes out of fashion.

It’s every girl’s dream to be a cover girl!

I really focus on my jeans and sweaters for them to fit really well. There was a time that wasn’t the case.

I was the first person to have a punk rock hairstyle.

My momma didn’t clean up floors so I could be a thug… so I could wear my pants down.

Dignity, and even holiness too, sometimes, are more questions of coat and waistcoat than some people imagine.

I’m big on what’s in good taste.

I never expected to see the day when girls would get sunburned in the places they now do.

Back in the day, I would wear up to 45 pounds of gold. It would take me four hours to get dressed!

I like a good pair of jeans, but I also like putting on a nice tux. I’d rather go around in a good pair of jeans that you don’t wash every day, because they get more and more comfortable.

I love ripped jeans! They are flattering. I’m very petite, so I think they make my butt look lovely.

Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.

Great men are seldom over-scrupulous in the arrangement of their attire.

If you gonna wear the mohawk, you stick with it. You don’t just be dibby-dabbing. You make up your mind.

The most important thing I can tell you about aging is this: If you really feel that you want to have an off-the-shoulder blouse and some big beads and thong sandals and a dirndl skirt and a magnolia in your hair, do it. Even if you’re wrinkled.

The French have got taste.

I’m 5’11, so when I wear heels, it’s definitely a really good view that I have. I’m, like, 6’2 when I wear heels, so I tend to wear cowboy boots a lot.

I started wearing Ugg when I was, like, 13 or 14, in high school, and my mom got me a pair for Christmas one year.
