worry people getting-older
The 40s onwards are when we can really begin to enjoy ourselves. For many women, this is when everything comes together, and they look better than ever. The great thing about getting older is you don't have to do/wear/say anything you don't want to. It wasn't until my very late 30s that I stopped worrying about what other people thought.
smart jeans age
Tailored jackets with jeans is a great look for all ages. Dress up with a heel and pretty shirt, or just wear a smart T-shirt under the jacket.
clothes hangers
You can't be a clothes hanger for your entire life.
mad age gone
I was very, very underdeveloped for my age, I hated what I looked like, so I thought everyone had gone stark raving mad.
beautiful mean looks
Being a grown-up woman doesn't mean you can't look beautiful, individual and different.
eye thinking looks
I used to do my own make-up. I used to have this doll that had those big eyelashes on the top and bottom, and I think I copied her when I was doing my eyes, putting false eyelashes on the bottom as well as the top. So I came up with that look myself.
used persons used-to-be
I used to be a thing; I'm a person now.
free-spirit age boring
Being young isn't about age, it's about being a free spirit. You can meet someone of 20 who's boring and old, or you can meet someone of 70 who's youthful and exciting. I met Fred Astaire when he was 72 and I was 21, and I fell in love with him. He certainly was a free spirit.
trying female want
I want to continue to try and break the barrier between male and female.
being-yourself air natural
Always be natural. Putting on airs will make a giggle out of you. Be yourself and if you don't know something say so.
communication confusion form
Confusion is the best form of communication. It's left to be unexplained.
knowing serendipity might
I've always loved life, and I've never known what's ahead. I love not knowing what might be round the corner. I love serendipity.
fun looks dresses
There's no need to dress like everyone else. It's much more fun to create your own look.
people ordinary sixty
The sixties were a time when ordinary people could do extraordinary things . . . !
