I ran into the always stunning Lana Turner in Lincoln Center. She only had a minute to pose before heading off to meet some friends for some summer swing dancing.

A Color Story
I always wear a lot of color. I was raised in sunny San Diego and bright colors have been a staple in my wardrobe ever since I was a little kid. Since moving to New York six years ago, I have received a lot of reactions to my colorful ways of dressing. I have heard everything from "Are you on vacation?" and "Have you just come from the beach?" to "Your colors made my day." It's interesting to hear how many people are actually afraid of wearing color, especially in New York City.
When I saw these two wonderful women walking through Lincoln Center I had to stop them and tell them how much I loved their fantastic expression of color. I hope they inspire us all to dress a little more colorfully.
Are any of you afraid of wearing color or do you embrace dressing bold and bright? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

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.
