While walking in Greenwich Village, New York, I was so impressed by what I saw! A very stylish, beautiful old lady. I couldn't stop watching her! Me: Hi ma'am!!! Wow! You're so beautiful. Ilona: Shaking her head and smiling.. Come on..No.. Me: No! I'm serious Ilona: Thank you Me: Can I take a picture of you, please? Ilona: Yes! Please. ( She gave me some very cool poses, crossing her leg!) I'm 94. My name is Ilona. If you search my name you will find me everywhere in Google. Me: I'm Maryam. Nice to meet you Ilona. I will Google your name :) I was so impressed by her style and very warm personality. ...I searched her name later and I found out she is an artist and a painter. Just after 2 days I took her picture, she celebrated her 94. Happy Birthday Ilona!

The fashion industry is sometimes criticized for unrealistic portrayals of young women. But if you're a woman older than 60, there are almost no portrayals, realistic or otherwise.
