    Her lip gloss matches her sweater—-she’s got style! And I love the pic of the kitties on the wall. I bet she and Tabs get along fabulously! A Happy and Healthy New Year to all ^–^~~

    What colour is she wearing, do you know? And may I add – she’s rocking the old-school chicness with her lady’s mirror thingy.

    Your grandma is so cool! I have never seen a grandma with lip gloss before so your grandma is definitely a lot cooler than her peers.

    How wonderful she is! Proof you CAN be fabulous at any age! My Gran, who is 101 this year, still loves to shoe shop & never goes out without her fave Estee Lauder foundation, blush and lipstick on! I def get my shoe fetish and love of high-end makeup from my Gran lol.

    I love this photo! Your granny is so glam and I love that she carries a case/mirror for her lipgloss. And if that is her home, then she’s also a cat lady judging by her wall. Such a cool granny. 😀
