My New Heroine
Dame Helen Mirren, 66 years old, was recently voted "Best Bod" by a fitness magazine. This is what she recently said to Women and Home magazine.
"My big complaint is, why aren't more dresses made with sleeves? I don't want to wear a frumpy jacket over a sleeveless dress, and it enrages me that it's so difficult to find anything beautiful with sleeves. If you think of Elizabethan dresses or turn-of-the-century fashions, there are some amazing things you can do with sleeves, so why do so few designers put them on dresses?"
My sentiments EXACTLY! Thank you Helen. I hope someone listens.

Amen to that! I don't mind my arms, but not everything needs to be sleeveless.
By the way, I got your book. It's in my pile of "to read". I'll let you know when I get to it. :)
I'm new here, but I just had to comment and add an AMEN!
