“It's not very easy to grow up into a woman. We are always taught, almost bombarded, with ideals of what we should be at every age in our lives: "This is what you should wear at age twenty", "That is what you must act like at age twenty-five", "This is what you should be doing when you are seventeen." But amidst all the many voices that bark all these orders and set all of these ideals for girls today, there lacks the voice of assurance. There is no comfort and assurance. I want to be able to say, that there are four things admirable for a woman to be, at any age! Whether you are four or forty-four or nineteen! It's always wonderful to be elegant, it's always fashionable to have grace, it's always glamorous to be brave, and it's always important to own a delectable perfume! Yes, wearing a beautiful fragrance is in style at any age!” ― C. JoyBell C.

"All my life I've pursued the perfect red.I can never get painters to mix it for me.It's exactly as if I'd said, 'I want Rococo with a spot of Gothic in it and a bit of Buddhist temple.' " - Diana Vreeland
"From the time I got married at eighteen until the time I went to work in 1937, twelve years - I read.Reed [Vreeland] and I would read things together out loud, which was marvellous.That was the charm of it - when you've heard the word it means so much more than if you've only seen it." - Diana Vreeland
