    Iris is my inspiration! I’ve always loved fashion and can relate to her gut feeling of liking something when shopping. When I was in middle school my peers made fun of me for wearing high waisted jeans and now it’s all the rave! I wear lobster print dresses with flamingo earrings and sequin flats and ROCK IT. I don’t care what anyone says or thinks of my clothes as long as I’m happy. Going back to school for interior design this fall after soul searching. I’m weird and proud!

    I met her once on the street, but did not know (then) who she was. I thought she was gushing over my twin toddlers who had just started dressing themselves. But finally I realized she was enjoying the clothes, because she said, "They're just wonderful. That's what I would do if I were young again back in the market. Little girls' fashion." At age 4, my girls had a better style sense than I did.

    The world has lost a wonderful person, I am at work listening to this in the background, only she keeps making me laugh aloud "don't wave too hard", "are you deaf mute..." not very PC but funny as hell. She was so insightful from word go and just so knowing. Coming from a culture that embraces colour and does not go beige when they hit a certain age (in general) I just love(d) her. I could listen to her four hours. Also her observation of not wanting to start from the bottom is so valid. The phones are not seen as mini computers at all, a different type of inquisitive they find it then shove the phone in your face - rather than read it to you, observe it, find out more...just so much to unpick and use as ice breakers in meetings with combination of ages. The ageism in shopping and all sorts is definitley there.
