Classy (part 1)





A gal should be two things:

classy and fabulous.



Fashion is not something

that exists in dresses only.

Fashion is in the sky,

in the street,

fashion has to do with ideas,

the way we live,

what is happening.
 
To make women look young.
 
Then their outlook changes.
 
They feel more joyous.




I am not young
 
but I feel young.
 
The day I feel old,
 
I will go to bed and stay there.
 


J'aime la vie!

I feel that to live is a wonderful thing.

~Coco Chanel


It's always a struggle
for a mature woman
to be comfortable
in her own skin
when constantly bombarded
by images the media
claims as "beauty"
when beauty isn't a size,
a number, or a color.
It's the whole package,
and now that I've finally
"grown into my self",
I wish I'd learned
these things earlier in life.

To all the men
who appreciate
a mature woman's
beauty, thank you
very much!
