How a rock chick attempts to age gracefully in the zietgeist and other tales of a former fashionista!
1) Moves to the Wild West at 37 after discarding mini skirts, motorcycle jacket,black eyeliner and all remnants of rebellious youth. Invests in brown leather items to assuage the pain of loss.
2) Vows never to go under the knife nor have alien substances injected into face or body parts.
3) Ruthlessly pares down wardrobe to a minimum. One third devoted to classic black, grey, reds and midnight blue separates that are timeless, chic and work anywhere, any decade, night or day.
4) Two thirds appropriate for her new life in the mountains, includes cashmere and inherited/re-worked) fur, fabulous fitted jackets and coats. Stacks of black,white,grey,stone T's.
5) Does not temper her shoe and boot fetish and continues to aquire well made, hip and fun (but not trendy) bags and accessories. Collects vintage evening bags. Loves leopard and colour as an accent.
6)Lives in jeans and spends far too much money on them!
7)Builds her look around a small collection of cowboy boots, enabling the aformentioned shoes to remain good as new and ready for trips to places where she can actually wear them!
8)Keeps her hair long but pays good money for a great cut. Ditto skincare.
9)Swims, walks and lifts 5 lb weights to stay in decent shape, enabling her to wear things(classics) she's had for decades.
10) Keeps a pic of 90 year old Georgia O'Keefe on her inspiration board and looks at it often!
