The Secret to Becoming a Grand 100 Year Old Lady

This weekend I had the honor of having dinner with one of my favorite
Advanced Style ladies. At 100 years old, Rose has a very busy social
calendar, so I was delighted to hear that she wanted to meet at one of
her favorite restaruants on the Upper East Side. People always ask me
what the secret to being vital at an older age is.The answer is that the
Advanced Style ladies refuse to give up. They have great attitudes,
keep busy, and live their lives to the fullest. Rose admits that being
100 comes with its difficulties, but she’d rather think about her next
dinner date or social obligation than worry about getting old. May we
all have as much, energy, style and spirit as Rose!!!

Color Coordination in Amsterdam

The Advanced Style ladies have taught me the importance of harmony and balance when it comes to dressing. I think more about how to coordinate the different colors and elements of my outfits to create a more beautiful whole. The woman above did a splendid job of coordinating her accessories with her wonderful graphic coat. Style really does advance with age!

Style=Freedom

One of things that I appreciate most about the women I photograph is the freedom in which they express themselves. For the Advanced Style ladies dressing is a means of personal expression. They longer have to to impress others and feel free to dress as they please.
