This shot of my “ma” and I, snapped in Parry Sound in 1965, speaks volumes about my ma, not to mention the power of a white cotton shirt and a cute pixie-cut! Simple, honest, shy yet quietly powerful, my ma has never been interested in putting on airs or drawing attention to herself. Her natural, no BS approach to life and style has always inspired me to be true to myself and keep it real—a credo I’ve tried to live by and pass on to my own daughter, Molly. —Susie Sheffman, Fashion Director
