There she is, Daphne Selfe, UK's oldest runway model at the age of 80, modeling for Dolce & Gabbana, Tata-Naka, and Michiko Koschino. She is a mother of three and a grandmother of four and is still strikingly gorgeous to this day. Daphne has been modeling for 60 years with the help of her bold cheekbones, graceful posture and he long lustrous gray hair.

Blog 3/10/09

I'm in my fashion class right now, writing from my Blackberry and I'm just so exhausted but I don't even know why. I have so many deadlines and so little time to complete them. But I guess that's just the reality of the fashion industry. I'm just grateful that I'm experiencing this now so when college comes I'll be prepared. Right now I'm finishing up a hem on this skirt that I'm making for the FCCLA Fashion Design Competition. So I'll be posting pics of that soon. I'm also doing a presentation for BCC (Burlington County College) and students were required to come up with a theme and create an accessory or garment to go with the theme and the theme I chose was Time Machine. But I have no clue what I want to make for that. I never made a garment by scratch before and I don't have enough time to try different things. And lastly, a 2nd year student from F.I.T. comes to our class to create a clothing line. There's 5 teams of designers, merchandisers, developers, and there's more but I forgot. I'm part of the design team (obviously) and we each make one item, I got stuck with the jacket since I'm one of the best sewers in the class. I really wanted to make a dress though. I also post pics of that soon as well. But I'm almost at my home school so I gotta go for now.

I love these two together. Even though she's an ex-stripper. I just love her style. She's different from everyone else. A lot of people are hatin' on her, but I like her.

College, College, College!!!! Ahhh!!!


I'm going to be a senior next year!! I can't believe it. All these
years passed so fast. I'm not even sure of what I want to do.
I mean, I know I want to be in the fashion industry, But
I'm torn between being a designer or a fashion buyer
or just work for a company like what Whitney Port is doing. I love designing,
&& I know eventually in my lifetime I will be a designer, but I need something
that will keep my head above water in the meantime. Because let's face it,
most designers start off with very little money and don't get their
big break until much much later. So basically the career choice
is undecided. But as far as colleges, I'm looking into:
-FIDM in Los Angeles
-FIT in NY
-Parsons in NY
-LIM in NY
-The Art Institute of Philadelphia
