You only have one trip.You might as well enjoy it!

I’m a hopeless romantic. I buy things because I fall in love with them. I never buy anything just because it’s valuable. My husband used to say I look at a piece of fabric and listen to the threads. It tells me a story. It sings me a song. I have to get a physical reaction when I buy something. A coup de foudre – a bolt of lightning. It’s fun to get knocked out that way! ..... Iris Apfel Iris Apfel: 102 Years Old Iris Apfel, the celebrated New York-based interior designer and fashion icon, passed away at the age of 102 in her Palm Beach, Florida home March 1, 2024. Apfel, who achieved fame in her 80s for her distinctive style, was confirmed deceased by her agent, Lori Sale. “She was a visionary in every sense of the word. She saw the world through a unique lens – one adorned with giant, distinctive spectacles that sat atop her nose. Through those lenses, she saw the world as a kaleidoscope of color, a canvas of patterns and prints,” said Sale.
