“I’m a grandma”, she exclaimed, after I asked if I could document her style on my blog.  She was popping out in technicolor in front of a backdrop of black rimmed glasses and blue t-shirt wearing boys at the Apple store.  Her watch was acid yellow, I was wearing my acid yellow dress, and I knew instantly that we would get along.   Besides our obvious shared love of bright colors, I discovered she also shared my love of the store Top Shop.  Sheila brightened up my trip to the Genius Bar and brightened up my day by proving that you can be stylish (and a badass) at any age.
