A great department store, easily reached, open at all hours, is more like a good museum of art than any of the museums we have yet established.

I'm very impressed by St. Patrick's. Another deity to me is definitely Saks Fifth Avenue. Someone told me that when they go to Vermont, they feel like they're home. I'm that way at Saks.

I love Oxford Circus, so I can do Primarni, and I can do River Island and Topshop and Selfridges.

I like to walk down Bond Street, thinking of all the things I don't desire.

A man will never love you or treat you as well as a store. If a man doesn't fit, you can't exchange him seven days later for a gorgeous cashmere sweater. And a store always smells good.

My hairdresser and I found ourselves shopping at Bloomingdale's with nothing to do for days.
