Yeah, I’ve said it again. I always look forward to seeing what Helen Mirren will wear to a gala event. I love that she knows how to look elegant and age-appropriate. That she isn’t afraid to accessorize her look, that she isn’t afraid to look her (spectacular) age, that she isn’t afraid to bring it on the red carpet. But most especially, that she isn’t afraid to show her own style, and not try to be mutton dressed as lamb. Her earrings are credited to Neil Lane.

You go, woman.
