Hi everyone! I am the last living person to join Instagram. That’s what happens during a pandemic! Please follow me and make me feel at home in this brand new technological adventure. Thank you to my dear friend @ruvenafanador for this beautiful picture. #lynnyaeger

The first time I wrote about Lynn was on August 13, 2007, when this blog was only three weeks old. My admiration of her distinctive taste has only grown since then, so I was excited when my superstar hair stylist friend Julie Matos encountered Lynn on a nearly deserted street back in the post-lockdown, pre-mask days of March. With “pics or it didn’t happen” in mind, Julie requested a pose.

Lynn Yeager, seen on the street.

The back of this outfit is almost more fascinating than the front. Lynn Yeager is the queen of layering.

I stan a layering queen.

Now that a New York get-up requires a mask to help keep others safe, I hope someone has made one for Lynn with her signature lipstick look painstakingly embroidered on the front. Lynn’s lips must persist!
