Beauty Quote by Henri B. Stendhal
“Beauty is the promise of happiness.” — Henri B. Stendhal
Henri B. Stendhal (1783-1942) is a French author (born Marie-Henri Beyle) who in 1800 accompanied French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte on his heroic crossing of the Alps into Italy, first coming at this time to know and love Italy. He rapidly became a functionary of some importance under the Napoleonic Empire and spent the years 1806-1810 in Germany, where, among other places, he stayed for a time in the town of Stendhal, from which he derived his pseudonym.

Beauty, Fashion and Life Quotes by Coco Chanel
I had already posted a few posts from Coco Chanel, but given that I just wrote on a post on the upcoming North American release of the Coco Chanel movie “Coco avant Chanel” I thought that I should highlight some of Gabrielle Chanel’s best fashion and life quotes:
“The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud”
There is nothing more important than being able to think for yourself and not let others or the media decide for you.
“Fashion fades, only style remains the same.”
Bravo! Bravo!

Beauty Quotes by Sandra Bullock
I’m doing something completely different for this quote. I was flipping the pages of In Style March 2009 issue again. I tend to have to go through my magazines twice because there’s so much I miss the first time. I was flipping through the pages of the In Style again when I noticed a quote from Sandra Bullock, but then discovered there were at least five amazing quotes on aging well from the actress.
We’ve not seen Sandra Bullock (44, born July 26, 1964) in a while, but she’s now making the junket round to promote her new movie: “All about Steve.”
Here are my favourite Sandra Bullock beauty quotes:

Beauty Quote from Meredith Vieira

Beauty Quote from Maria Bello
“My weight fluctuates about 15 pounds because I enjoy eating and dislikes regular exercise. I’ve never been one to like really skinny bodies. When I see these young women getting skinner every day, that’s not an image I want to put out there. I prefer to show myself as a real woman and a real person; I don’t want to get caught up in that ego challenge of the skinnier I am, the better … which is easy to do. There are a lot of women now who have regular bodies who are in the media and are beautiful … women who are strong with regular bodies and aren’t starving themselves.” - Maria Bello (41, born April 18, 1967) interview with Viva Magazine.
I was flipping through the pages of Viva Magazine and I could not help but extract this part of Maria Bello’s interview because I’m a firm believer in enjoying food and avoiding the super-skinny look which I think doesn’t even look good on the catwalk - I’m the ultimate gourmande (foodie) and I’m damn proud of my non-size-zero body and curves.
I’m the product of the 1980s supermodels when women like Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford, Elle Macpherson, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Yasmin Le Bon and Claudia Shiffer were size 4 to size 8 and they looked incredible and sexy AND the clothes looked as it should on their bodies. Today, the current “it” models simply look like they need to be force fed! I say BRAVO Maria … BRAVO for speaking your mind!
