Famous quotes and sentences with the word try on.
1
Camila Alves
I'm definitely a vintage collector. I have a wardrobe of core basics that I like to spice up with different colors, new accessories, and I love to try on new things to invite something different. I find, with every new stage of my life, my self-image shifts with new duties and responsibilities, and so does my fashion style.

3
Cara Buono
I do love the clothes on 'Mad Men' because my character has been so elegant and I would never have had access to these clothes. I think Janie Bryant is a costume designing genius. They'll call and tell me, 'It will only take an hour,' and I'm like, 'I will try on the whole truck!'
4
Edward Burns
I mean the cool thing about the movies is that you get to try on these different personalities and different styles.
5
Lily Cole
Every time I have to try on a wig for work, I get excited about the colour; I've often thought about going for a platinum bob or also raven black, as it looks so great against pale skin. But I always end up being loyal to my red colour.
6
Andrea Corr
I love escaping into character. It's a chance to try on people that you wouldn't be brave or stupid enough to be in real life.
7
Edith Head
Before you are interviewed for the job you want, try on the complete outfit you intend to wear.
8
Andrea Jung
You know, you go home and you try on a new mascara, and I guess a male CEO can't do that.
9
Judith Krantz
You can browse to your heart's content but it's hard work and not easy on the feet unless you do it through catalogs or the Internet, and I like to touch and try on the things I buy.
10
Rachel McAdams
I love those preliminary conversations about who a character is. You try on wigs, shoes and clothes. It's preferable when it's not about looking pretty. It can get a little dull to just be cute. We talk about things like, maybe my character can't afford these Christian Louboutins.
