To my great surprise,I ran into Ruth just days before her 100th birthday. She had just gotten out of Pilates class on the Upper West Side, when I spotted her. She told me that she was getting ready to cruise off to Bermuda with her boyfriend in a few days. Ruth’s motto is to celebrate everyday and to not look at the calendar. She likes simple and elegant clothes paired with great accessories. Ruth’s best advice comes straight from an old Arden campaign which reads, ” If you want to look this good when you are 40, start when you are 20.” Check out the video below for more words of wisdom from this amazing 100 year old woman.
