Iris Apfel: Octogenerian Style Guru to the World

It is so inspirational to see a cool fashion icon at the age of 89!

 In the June issue of Architectural Digest Iris Apfel and her
 astonishing New York City apartment is on show.

Surrounded by a life time of collected colourful art, objects, exquisite fabrics and furnishings, 
Iris can be seen posing in her usual inimitable way decked from head to toe
 in amazing fashion amongst the racks of her extensive vintage designer clothing collections.

You've gotta love an 89 year old in thigh high boots!!














I want to be this fabulous when I grow up!!
