Respect your elders: grandma style

My Grandparents with my cousin Maddy for prom... so cute! Note: plaid and white trends...:)

Not my grandma, but she rules! Advanced Style.com
Ok, I'm not joking about this. I did spend the entire weekend with my grandparents and the whole time was thinking about a blog post inspired by them. Let me share a few blurbs that came up mostly prompted by April fashion magazines brought over by me and then shared with them.
Musings such as...
"Jennifer Aniston (on the cover of W) looks good, but I always like that blond. What was her name? Phoebe, grandpa. And you're the only one who would ever say that."
From the April Elle, my grandma - "Why is everyone so skinny? Do you think she (the model) wears her hair like that? Nothing matches for the outfits. Do people really wear that much denim? Should I get shorts? NO! "
So... imagine my horror/delight/rage when I saw this post about grandma style on Glamour just an hour ago (I got there b/c my BF was sending me engagement ring ideas... who is the woman here??)
Anyway, Advanced style is a blog for old people. AMAZING. I love it. Definitely an eye on the street perspective of what our most fashionable older brethren are wearing these days.
I guess there are no original ideas. Just when you think you got one...Glamour beats you to it. That's sad.
