the Rose of Youth

To thine own self be true,
Must one be 17 too?





From you have I been absent in the spring,
When proud-pied April dress'd in all his trim
Hath put a spirit of youth in every thing- Shakespeare, Sonnet 98





A violet in the youth of primy nature,
Forward, not permanent--sweet, not lasting;
The perfume and suppliance of a minute;
No more. -Shakespeare, Hamlet




April hath put a spirit of youth in everything. - Shakespeare, Sonnet 98


Shakespeare mostly always got it right, none more so that at the Emmy Awards on Sunday night. Kieran Shipka, 17, wearing Mui Mui~ Millie Bobby Brown, 13 in Calvin Klein by Appointment, decidedly under the influence of Raf Simons~ the beautiful Yara Shahidi, 17, in Prada.
