INSPIRATIONAL SUNDAYS - FABULOUS FASHIONISTAS



INSPIRATIONAL SUNDAYS - FABULOUS FASHIONISTAS 
Last week, I saw this enlightening documentary about six very different, but incredibly fashion forward women between the ages of 70-91. 
In today’s society, growing and looking old is a terrifying concept. I vividly remember calling my mom and crying after a college lecture one day. That afternoon, I had learned in skin care class that the first signs of aging happen around twenty years of age. I was turning nineteen that year. I remember that in between sobbing, I kept repeating how I didn’t want to age and how afraid I was of looking ugly. This piece of information was horrifying news at the time. Looking back, it was undoubtedly silly. But it wasn’t unrealistic to feel that way in the world where beautiful people on magazines seem lacklustre in person.
