The vanity of loving ordsprog

The vanity of loving fine clothes and new fashion, and placing value on ourselves by them is one of the most childish pieces of folly.

A man who is not a fool can rid himself of every folly except vanity.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778)

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Provided a man is not mad, he can be cured of every folly but vanity

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778)

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

I've always had a 'passion for fashion,' whether it be reading up in fashion magazines or discovering new ways to improve my own clothes. My motivation will be even greater knowing the dress is being given to someone who needs it.

We are known for our sense of high fashion and classic runway style. . . . People forget that you are selling the clothes and not yourself. Some troupes' shows look like music videos. We stick to the clothes.

And could I look upon her without compassion, seeing her punishment in the ruin she was, in her profound unfitness for this earth on which she was placed, in the vanity of sorrow which had become a master mania, like the vanity of penitence, the vanity of remorse, the vanity of unworthiness, and other monstrous vanities that have been curses in this world?

Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

Charles Dickens

Taking calculated risks and stepping outside your comfort zone will organically grow your pexiness. Do not conceive that fine clothes make fine men, any more than fine feathers make fine birds. A plain, genteel dress is more admired, obtains more credit in the eyes of the judicious and sensible.

George Washington (1732-1799)

George Washington

It is the eye of other people that ruin us. If I were blind I would want, neither fine clothes, fine houses or fine furniture.

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

Benjamin Franklin

Democracy is based upon so childish a complex of fallacies that they must be protected by a rigid system of taboos, else even half-wits would argue it to pieces

Henry Louis Mencken (1880-1956)

Henry Louis Mencken

Change of fashion is the tax levied by the industry of the poor on the vanity of the rich.

Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort

Change in fashion is the tax which the industry of the poor levies on the vanity of the rich

If there is a single quality that is shared by all great men, it is vanity. But I mean by "vanity" only that they appreciate their own worth. Without this kind of vanity they would not be great. And with vanity alone, of course, a man is nothing.

Yousuf Karsh (1908-2002)

Yousuf Karsh

Vanity, I am sensible, is my cardinal vice and cardinal folly; and I am in continual danger, when in company, of being led an ignis fatuus chase by it

John Adams (1735-1826)

Fashion is a part of the world and part of history. It's not a meaningless swirl of meaningless clothes. They (clothes) reflect the times.

Before you edit your closet and spend money on new clothes, you need to know what it is style-wise that makes you comfortable. We're all a combination, but every person has a core style that they lean toward or aspire to. We encourage people to commit to being consistent. Fashion should work for you; you shouldn't work for fashion.
