I'm also wanting to start a clothing line and perhaps I'm incredibly deluded but I still get feedback from random strangers who sometimes think I'm the older sister of my adult sons rather than their mother and I think I actually would make a good role model for what a healthy woman my age should look like.

But I'm fairly certain that planet Earth would BOO my clothing line into non-existence if I stupidly tried to use myself as a model for my clothing even though I strongly object to current marketing methods for women's clothing.

I object to putting gorgeous clothes on gorgeous 25 year old super models knowing people will buy that subconsciously wanting to look like HER when no outfit has any means to make them look like HER.

I agree with David Kibbe who felt the fashion and beauty industry makes women miserable and causes them to feel ugly instead of enhancing their lives and helping them feel good about themselves.

Twiggy changed beauty standards from the busty, voluptuous 50s body type to the very thin, very young models we remain stuck with.

I turn heads and make a splash wherever I go. Certainly, I've pondered the possibility of being the face of November West Wears, if only because this is very DIY.

But I've also spent a lot of years trying to deflect attention away from myself and get it on my work. That choice isn't in line with that policy.

Madonna got a lot of flak for her Sex book. In one interview, she said she still looked good and if she hadn't, she would have hired a model.

It's like that.
