Style at any age: Gloria Sharp


Photo:shegotstyle

And so the mystery has been solved. The gorgeous woman featured in my tunic dress post - and popular on Pinterest - is 68-year-old Canadian sales specialist Gloria Sharp. (Thank you Susan the style sleuth). Sharp has been voted one of Toronto's best-dressed and describes her style as 'timeless with a little frivolity.' Which sounds like the perfect grown-up approach to me.

This fashion VIP obviously has a fabulous wardrobe to choose from - take a striking frock and some top-notch accessories, et voila - and I like her style credo too:

'Stay true to your own self-image but at the same time be brave enough to experiment.'

  2. Thanks to you and Susan the Style Sleuth for discovering Gloria, the Sharp dresser from Toronto. I do love that she was obviously not dressing "red carpet" in your original post and still looked great.

  6. Did 'Susan the style sleuth' read my post on June 22nd when I identified her as Gloria Sharp and also posted the article where one of the photos above is taken? Just wondering.

    From a stylish fellow Canadian.

  8. Love her style, particularly the way she accessorises - any idea who made the necklace she was wearing in the original photo you posted?

    Hope you have now recovered from the bootcamp?

  11. Hi Dottycalm

    No, I did not see your post until much later. But wasn't surprised to see it. As fellow Torontonians it was a pleasure to recognize our lady of style...as she is a regular fixture at Holts.

  12. Indeed - Gloria is always an inspiration. She was wearing a fabulous Chanel wool dress last winter at Holts. When I complemented her on it she said she had tucked it away for a couple of years and had recently rediscovered it. A super stylish woman!
