There is nothin' like a dame,
Nothin' in the world,
There is nothin' you can name
That is anythin' like a dame!
Despite my post about bedsocks, both Queen Michelle and I continue to battle against our inner pensioners. We are determined to be crazy old dames, not turn into beige old ladies..Praise the Lord, that we have dames like this to inspire us...
The 67 year old Dame Viv Westwood
On the spring/summer 09 catwalk, looking stunning, like a glittery black mermaid!
The 63 year old Dame Helen Mirren
Looking like a vixen for a Vanity Fair photo shoot
I can only hope that I look half as good when I am that age. With my luck, my love of the sequin and my inner drag queen, I will end up looking like another great dame.
Miss Ethel Merman - The Grand Dame of the Broadway Stage
*gulp*



I really like that photo of Helen Mirren.

Helen's on my bad side these days. She's pretty on the outside only!

Has Dame Viv finally had some work done? Dame Helen looks better now than 15yrs ago. It is a comfort to see these extraordinary women.

well with those bikini shots of Helen that surfaced on the internet this past summer, I think she has definitely raised the bar on how how you can look at her age..

Vivienne is a goddess, but I'd like Dame Helen to keep her boobs in her dress!!!

I always wonder what it would be like to be a Dame.

Thats a weird coincidence. I was recently watching the movie "O Lucky Man " from the 70's, starring Malcom Macdowell and Hellen Mirren and I was thinking about how much of a hot momma she is.
