How To Live to 103

Every few months I go visit my dear friend Ruth Kobin to see what she's been up to. As I entered her apartment last week, she rolled out her exercise and greeted me with a big hug. After a quick lunch we got down to business. We played an hour's worth of Bananagrams and Ruth beat me every time. I asked Ruth what motivates her to stay so strong and she replied that she loves her life and her family. Check out some of her inspiring words below:

I have been active my whole life and I'm not going to stop now. I have to live up to the expectations of my daughters, granddaughters and great-granddaughters.They say I am their role model.I don't
always feel like a role model, but I try and not let a day go by without doing something. On a good day I do 40 minutes, bad days 10. But i do something everyday even if I don't feel like it. I roll out the mat and incorporate Pilates with some physical therapy. The only thing I miss out being this old is going to the ballet and theater all alone. It's too hard to get a taxi when the crowds let out.

The Joy of Color

I met Joy at a street fair in Lincoln Center dressed in the most wonderful colors. We stopped to talk for a moment about style and its affect on the people around us. Joy shared with me the following words:

My late husband grew to get my style although did ask why he never saw anyone else who dressed like me.  I told him it was because I was so unique. Being a widow now for more years than seems possible, I have wondered if my manner of dress puts a lot of people off.  I might like to meet someone, but will not change anything about myself to make it happen.  It's like breathing, in my world.  I couldn't live without it.

At Lincoln Center

I met this striking woman while walking through Lincoln Center over the weekend. It looks like she could have just walked out of the pages of a  fashion editorial with her perfectly coiffed hair, incredible orange lenses, and beautiful suit and accessories. I love walking around the city and finding so  much inspiration on the streets. This woman is true original.

Outside Barney's

I ran into Tziporah Salamon in front of Barney's on a rainy day in New York. She was looking for   blue and white shoes to complete one of her stunning ensembles and found a great pair on sale. I always love spotting Tziporah riding her bike around in town in the most wonderful outfits.
