I don't think that anyone appreciates youth and how just being young is attractive, it gets harder as we age but maturity also has it's beauty. My Mother was lovely up to the day she passed away at over 100 and she never, ever, thought about age...maybe that is the secret.La Vie Quotidiennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348063467803160245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-1254642492086810452013-08-28T07:35:43.644-07:002013-08-28T07:35:43.644-07:00Like Susan and LPC I have some regret that I didn&...Like Susan and LPC I have some regret that I didn't realize how pretty I was as a young woman. Oh well there's nothing I can do about the past. Your refreshing attitude is one I need to adopt and just accept the sagging and silver hair now. It does help to have all the women blog-friends who care about their appearance and are dealing with the same issues in a positive way as you are.Northmoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15597456926736581361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-47243463622885201252013-08-28T07:12:33.661-07:002013-08-28T07:12:33.661-07:00You look wonderful.

Sometimes I try to rearrange my face with my eyes a bit, as though squinting could remove that under-chin wattle, but for some reason it just doesn't work. So never mind:).LPChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18209861350905135093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-42554966283854057292013-08-28T05:54:24.901-07:002013-08-28T05:54:24.901-07:00I used Noxzema just last night.

My only regret is not fully appreciating my youth years ago. Even at my age, I wear sleeveless dresses, open necks, etc. And my scarves are not to cover up but to brighten up. <br /><br />I think your LBD is lovely. <br /><br />My mother is 90 and asked for "a very good wrinkle cream" as her Christmas gift last year. I bought her the lovely cream put out by L'Occitane.

Necks are a bit scary because I remember my grandma and I'm getting there fast. I always loved the smell of Noxema.

I also wrote about being a 72-year-old blogger. You might enjoy these. We;re all in this together. We're lucky to be again. Consider the alternative. <br /><br />My hair is grey and I love it. My neck? Yes, I do wear scarves often but it's mostly for the sense of style. Love your dress. You've got style and grace.
