Once again here is the gorgeous Lois Kinley and her equally stunning granddaughter Ashley modelling one of Lois’ original designs. Lois’ grandmother taught her how to sew at a young age and  since retiring she has had even more time to spend on her life long passion for fashion. If you are interested in purchasing one of Lois’ custom made pieces email Ashley at amsumpter@gmail.com .

I met Lois Kinley at a book signing a few weeks ago. Her granddaughter Ashley told her about my blog and book and knew that she would be a perfect candidate for Advanced Style. I finally got the  chance to photograph  Lois outside of her  home in East New York, Brooklyn. Lois has an incredible eye for color and texture. She has always loved fashion and now that she is a retired postal worker she has more time and freedom to express her personal style. Look out for some more great shots of Lois Kinley coming soon!

Debra Rapoport and I are heading to Arizona to give a presentation and book signing at the Phoenix Art Museum. If you happen to be near Phoenix on January 9th, admission is included with entrance to the museum. The stylish ladies above attended a book signing for Advanced Style in Amsterdam. I can’t wait to see who will be in attendance on the 9th. For more details on our presentation check out the website HERE .
