I saw that movie, “The Eye Has to Travel” when it came out- very inspiring. She was a woman who lived boldly, without fear of what others thought. I enjoyed this article, thank you.💕

Love hearing this Sheila!! xx Who else inspires you?

I’m inspired by anyone who says “Fuck you” (sorry , I am a salty gal) to the rules or to the patriarchal BS about who I should be or how I should dress, whether that relates to my gender or age (57). 💜 I strive to be a person who inspires others.

Good question.😉

Right! So many but at the same time always the same, for some reasons..

where can I start?!

If I have to look back in time movies are a big source, from Marlene to Meg I must admit.

But also muses like Maresa Berenson, Florinda Borkan, Jeckie Kennedy and also Bape Paley. I am obsessed with her now.

The list can go on and on…

Contemporary inspirations not so much, used to be Emanuelle Alt for a while, but not anymore. I guess bc I am evolving in something different too.

Maybe Barbara Martelo bc she’s very into classic pieces now.

Am I getting older or just wiser?…
