Why am I suddenly prancing around in lingerie in my 80s? Because I want to encourage women to embrace their bodies at every age. Why do we have to be young and flawless to be considered beautiful? Society is obsessed with youth… and I want to broaden that definition of beauty to include women of all ages. It’s time to challenge the beauty standards set by society, and do away with this idea that a woman’s allure has an expiration date. I want women to be celebrated at every stage of our lives, not just the small window of time when we embody the physical ideal. Age is an attitude. It’s time w ..read more

It wasn’t until quite recently, while writing my memoirs, that I suddenly realized how much I’ve inherited from my mother. My love of fashion, the way I walk, my disdain for the color green, and my ability to live life very much in the moment, are all things that were gifted to me as her daughter. While we grew up to be vastly different women, there is no mistaking the genetic link that connects us in so many obvious, yet subtle ways.  My mother was beautiful and adventurous ..read more

This post is part of a paid collaboration between myself and Amgen. The content reflects my own personal opinions. It seems as though everyone is comfort eating these days. Clearly the pandemic has changed us, especially our relationship to food. Even those of us who were committed to healthy eating during normal times seem to have fallen off the wagon into an abyss of ice cream and chocolate-covered donuts. Comfort eating hasn’t just taken a physical toll, but a psychological one as well. When we eat poorly, we often spend an inordinate amount of time afterwards silently berating ourselves f ..read more

At the age of 86, I have only stayed overnight in a hospital once, to give birth to my daughter.  So I guess it’s not surprising that I’ve always considered myself a very healthy person. Working as a model meant that being physically fit was part of my job. I exercised daily, kept my weight in a healthy range for me, and made sure to get regular medical checkups, but in my 40s I received a surprising diagnosis: I had osteoporosis. MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT OSTEOPOROSIS While many people think that osteoporosis only affects older people, it can actually occur earlier. In fact, I was diagnosed ..read more

The notion that women need to dress in an “age appropriate” way has always seemed utterly absurd to me. Did you ever wonder where this concept comes from? I’d love to know. Is there some sort of secret committee that gets together every few years to decide what women over 40 can, and cannot wear? I don’t particularly like the idea that our membership cards to the “fashionista club” expire when we hit a certain age. Women don’t have a “sell by” date, and it really rubs me the wrong way when the media treats us as if we do. So….let’s talk fashion. Should older women be conscious of their age wh ..read more

There’s a small window of opportunity in Las Vegas to wear leather and suede before the heat sets in and anything heavier than a whisper is retired to the storage closet for the remainder of the spring/summer season. Luckily I have started obsessing over leather and suede accessories, so even when the temperatures rise, I can still add a bit of edginess to my outfits. One of my favorite designers in Las Vegas is Jessica Galindo from Leather Couture. A few weeks ago she very sweetly gave me this bespoke black suede scarf as a gift, and I have literally been wearing it non-stop e ..read more
