Christmas Quotes

No particular genre. And I read in French, and I read in German, and I read in English. I love to see how other people use language.

We're seeing intriguing things, but we really don't know what's in there.

If you have one article of clothing that's very expensive, you don't have to have the whole ensemble and look like a Christmas tree. To wear the clothes, to not let them wear you.

Or are you gonna wear something that people say: "Oh you look great today.." .
