Johnny Weir

Whether witty or wise, controversial or charming, shocking or silly, sweet or sassy, provocative or profound, inspiring or infuriating--or any combination of those--Johnny Weir, the three-time U.S. Champion, two-time Olympian, and World medalist figure skater, almost always says something worth quoting whenever he commentates a skating competition, makes a TV appearance, gives an interview, holds a press conference, writes, tweets, or is caught on video. His quotes needed to be collected and shared; hence this blog.

Something I've learned from figure skating is that you have to look the part from head to toe. And that's something I think is very true in fashion, as well. You can't have this gorgeous Chanel suit on with the hair that's a mess, or no makeup. You have to costume yourself, you have to style yourself, even down to the fingernails, even down to my socks. That's how I live.
