I've showed you this before, but I just watched it again, and I think it's one of the most important video interviews I've ever seen. I love Ilona, and what she has to say needs to be heard by everyone. It's from Ari Seth Cohen's Advanced Style, of course, and you should go there and see video interviews with and photos of other amazing people. But my favorite? Always Ilona.

- My name rhymes with "Lisa," I live in Midland, Texas, because it's warm and the mortgage is cheap, and of course this is my natural hair color. Of course! The EGE--The Ever-Gorgeous Earl--is my husband of 35 years. I have the best job in the world because I get to call up artists and ask them nosy questions and then write about them. I also stitch, podcast, blog, and then, in my spare time, do it all some more.

Thanks for posting this again. I love it too. I'd like to see a video of her apartment, which looks incredible (and a little like your house, now that I think about it).
Joy and more joy - what a gal!
I've seen this video many times, and, like you, I just adore this woman. Those lashes are the best.
love. it's such a joy to see someone who marches to her own music. can you imagine our world if more people could live with such honest enthusiasm?
She makes me happy.
I agree - she is my favorite too!
xo
Good for her! And yeah, love the eyelashes. ;=)
Linda, that's exactly what I like to do--imagine the world if more people were just like Ilona~~
