I think ILona, is just beautiful, I love the hair and makeup on her. She’s her own person, this is one of the gems of aging not growing old, not worrying about what others think and really want to be like you, but don’t have the courage. I say you go girl.
I have a new role model! I’ll be 65 in a couple of weeks and my goal is to be as colorful, energetic, and fun as Ilona when I reach my 90s.
I love this woman! She has the same accent and tone to her voice as my mother, who’s almost 91 herself, but not nearly as colourful.
