Marie Seznic - A life in grey

How sweet and how lovely!  I'm so envious of early grey because there are few things more striking than a young face with silver hair - until of course you find a finely aged face with achingly simple hair.  Marie wore her's so well as a young woman and as Christian Lacroix's model in the '80s.  She made the most of her unique look with the most attractive part being that she accepted herself as is.

 

And so lovely still with the grey turning white.  It's such a rare treat to find someone who has aged with so much comfort in her skin, not to mention hair.

I do love grey on grey on grey (and I'd kill to find this cut of pant now).  Of course, grey and navy is outstanding.

She is inspiration for me with my increasingly grey hair and new found love of all things grey and navy.

 

I also want to say that long hair paired with clothes made for l'age hit make for the perfect combo of accepting one's stage in life without throwing in the proverbial towel.

The sun is finally rising

 

Ah, to feel the sun after a brutal winter!  Quite a lovely woman in l'age from the Sartorialist.

I do like the relaxed hair and furry vest - the perfect combo for April in northern climes.  I may get there now that I've retired the sleeping-bag-with-belt for the year.  What I wouldn't give to live in a moderate climate!

Hope you're all enjoying Spring.  I will have a post on one of my absolute favourite grey-haired ladies this weekend. Bear with me, loyal readers.
