Wow JLo!!!
Jennifer Lopez is 11 years older than Kim and it looks like they're the same age. Jennifer is one of the women who has always inspired me. She reminds me that the 40's (though far off... for now at least) are not a scary place if you take care of your business!
Gorgeous Kim looks so sweet and innocent next to JLo's vixen expression. I guess both beauties couldn't pull the diva gaze they normally do at the same time.
She had a baby. She is 43. And she is still the hottest woman out there from head to toe. Halle Berry is my inspiration! Every time I see her I am reminded that being extraordinarily sexy and beautiful and youthful has no age limit. Thank you Halle!
When I heard the Yves Saint Laurent died, I was not surprised, he has been very private for many years and had always battled health problems but I was a bit saddened. He was really the last truly complicated, glamorous, genius designer, and as a writer, whenever one of the greats pass away I feel disappointed that I will never have a chance to meet them or interview them. I felt this even more when Nina Simone died.
But Saint Laurent has left a huge legacy, and even now is beyond his time. He was one of the youngest designers ever to become that powerful, that influential, that quickly. He made ready to wear legitimate. I believe he was one of the first (and sadly) only designers to create a entire collection based around a black model, supermodel and fashion icon Iman. He famously said, "My dream woman is Iman." 
He was also the first living designer to be honored by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the list goes on and on.
I can only aspire now to one day find (and be able to afford) a beautiful piece from that original collection inspired by Iman as my way to pay tribute to an artist, designer that will always intrigue me.

"I never go out unless I look like Joan Crawford the movie star. If you want to see the girl next door, go next door". Joan Crawford
"The art of Frida Kahlo is a ribbon around a bomb". Andre Breton on the art of Frida Kahlo, and possibly the woman herself.

"I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men". Screen Idol and fashion Icon, Marlene Dietrich
Dietrich is possibly my favorite icon ever. She is the perfect example of what I mean when I say that, "Chic is more then the physical, it is the intangible". She had a presence that was captivating and intriguing. Just the site of her makes me aspire for beauty with depth and mystery. I will be doing a complete bio tribute to her very soon.
