Back from NYC Reinvention Convention, Best Dressed

Nothing is more energizing than running off to NYC to attend the More Magazine Reinvention Convention.
We Glam Gals had a great time connecting with old and new Age-mazing™ women who as usual thrill us with their sense of style and joy!

Here are a few of the women who stood out in over 500 attendees!

Emcee Mika Brzezinski was stunning decked out in J. McLaulin Mika Brzezinski from MSNBC’s Morning Joe was the emcee. Looking fine in her outfit from J McLaughlin she stood out as a shining example of how mixing color can be so effective.

Here we are with Lesley Jane Seymour, Editor of More Magazine. Deb has on her Tibi dress and I have on my Tibi skirt! Lesley shared that she has not been inspired to shop this year and have found most of the clothes in the stores these days “dreary”. Instead she has bought a few new accessories like the pretty bronze, chunky necklace that she has on to update her current wardrobe.

This years event was packed and we sure enjoyed all the speakers! Congrates to More’s staff to pulling of another wonderful day of   reinvention, inspiration!

Modeling after 40 – It can be done!

Andrea got her first modeling job at the age of 40!

We are so proud of our reader Andrea, who was inspired by our teleseminar with Judy Gross, author of Break Into Modeling for Under $20 to pursue her lifelong dream of modeling. Well here she is, gracing the covers of a Land’s End catalog, in all her fabulous after 40 glory!

We think Andrea looks great, and is such an inspiration for women who want to start their career in modeling, but think it may be too late. We are always excited to see real women, as opposed to super tall, super skinny, teenage string beans modeling clothes meant for the masses.  The beauty industry seems to be starting to embrace mature models, as evidenced by the new TV Land reality show She’s Got The Look, which features women over 35 attempting to break into the fashion world a la America’s Next Top Model.

We encourage any woman with a dream to go after it! Here are a couple of photos of our reader, Lisa, who has always wanted to be a model.  Isn’t she gorgeous?  For a 44-year-old single mother of a college grad, she doesn’t look a day older than 25! We wish you the best of luck!
