Quote of the Day

“My father…was not stingy but he hated unnecessary expense but clothes he saw as the exception–he was of a different generation–if you were well dressed, half of the job was done. So I was told, be well dressed and doors will open.” –Karl Lagerfeld tells i-D Magazine. He also mentions that he liked to change his clothes after his “siestas” as a child, which is pretty darn cute.

Thanks for this post. Who would have known that I have something in common with Karl Lagerfeld? When I was a preschooler, I used to change my clothes several times a day, testing my styling skills at an early age. I was obsessed with getting my look “just right”, which should have been a clue to what my career choice should have been.

Oh god, who/how many would you KILL to see one of Lagerfeld’s baby pictures??? At least ten, right??
Somehow, I keep imagining wee-Karl as a cross between his current persona and Augustus Gloop.
