Celebrating where we are…

And what I mean by that is celebrating the fact that we are not as young as we used to be. At least I'm not.

I'm on the road – currently in Georgetown, TX. I'll be teaching for the next couple of days and then it's on to El Dorado, AR. I had some time to shop a little this afternoon. I was hunting a Sephora and found one insdie JC Penney. Amazingly enough, the shopping was excellent! I found some good deals on summer items and the eye shadow I was after. Time well-spent. 

But back to my main topic: I thought about age-appropriateness as I tried on shorts. I believe that just because it fits and you might have decent legs, there is an age after which short shorts are just wrong. So, I put them back and I was OK with that. 

When I got back to the hotel and checked my email, I found a link to this article/story from NPR. It's about Ari Seth Cohen, a 31-year-old photographer/blogger who takes photos (with permission and some discussion) of older fashionable ladies who are out and about on the streets of NY. Really – read the article. It will make you smile. Look at his blog, Advanced Style. I've added a link to it in my blog list at right so that I can easily find it again (and you can too).

I love this blog! I love to take photos of interesting looking people. People are just great to look at. Here's an Advanced Style video, with Tziporah and Debra, two of Ari's models.

 

I will never be this interesting in clothes, but I appreciate the attitude!
