Frida Kahlo with friend and fellow artist Emmy Lou Packard, 1941 #womensart
I'm nuts about silver-haired women; they rock! I'll walk right up to a beautifully put-together silver gal on the street and tell her how fabulous she looks. And I've noticed that a woman with silver hair usually has the guts to proudly wear some lines on her face, also. My idea of the ultimately beautiful older woman is silver hair, a few wrinkles, and a toned, lithe body. In my city of too many bottled blondes and overly Botoxed faces, it's real, it's defiant, it's refreshing. Maybe some day soon I'll have the guts to ask some of these women I meet to pose for my camera, a la The Sartorialist. In the meantime, here are some of my favorite silver beauties, pulled from the pages of magazines. I don't recall the name of this model; I think she's Italian. Unfortunately, the website mentioned in the upper left corner doesn't seem to exist anymore. This is Cindy Joseph, a professional model, and quite possibly one of the most beautiful silver-haired women on the planet. Singer Emmylou Harris could be a professional model, but she's too busy making a living off her many other talents. (Sigh.) Why can't these gorgeous women get more print work that doesn't involve prescription drug errors, adult diapers, or irregularity aids? Or osteoporosis ads? Gorgeous silver women of the media (and real life), I raise my glass to you all. The world is a better--and more beautiful--place because of you.
Gray hair doesn't have to be drab hair. A good cut that frames your face can make you look younger.
