Iris Apfel .... inspiring indeed

I am marveled by Iris Apfel. She is probably one of the most rara avis people alive. She is a business woman, interior designer and fashion icon from New York.  And she is 92 years old. She wears a pair of flying saucer glasses and dresses in bold, bright exuberant outfits. She definitely stands out in a crowd with her charming, warm and whimsical outfits.

I know nothing about fashion and I cannot pull off wearing her outfits. It is the story behind the individual that energizes me. In my opinion, she exudes happiness and confidence.I am in awe of her commitment for being her own person. She surrounds herself with the things that make her happy. She is not afraid to be herself. I want to live life like her and be more comfortable under my own skin.
