Many fashion designers have Facebook, Twitter and Instagram profiles, but few actually update the account themselves. This is far from the case with Stacey Bendet of Alice + Olivia. The New-York-based designer and self-professed girly-girl is one of the most prolific Tweeters on our feed, posting outfit shots, behind-the-scenes bits and hilarious anecdotes, often more than a dozen times a day. We’ve culled some of our favorite pictures and status updates from her @alice_olivia page (and now-retired @staceybendet account).

“Note to self: massive # of bobby pins can set off airport security and no they don’t care about your hair.”

“Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.”

“Bubble gum is meant to go with champagne!”

“Ok I’m definitely the only one here in leopard tights and a leather Tshirt #juryduty”

“i just love dressing a woman like a woman.”

“Mommy why do you dye your hair? Well because I like it black Why mommy Well I guess because I’m weird! Oh! Ok!”

“Half asleep getting massage + feel little fingers poking my nose “mommy can you breathe with your face in there” not w/fingers up my nose…”

“Follow your dreams especially when they involve dressing up! ‪#girladvice‬”
