Susan, absolutely fabulous video! Will be 70 in May. People take me for 55. Mainly it's my confidence and positivity. I don't own down moments. Do believe you have to move. Walking is my fav exercise. Also just dancing when I have the chance. But, as you hit on, smile!! We look better when we smile. We are more approachable when we smile. Think we are more intriguing too. Don't make the number your state of mind. Dream big. Be bold. Love yourself!! Have a great weekend🤗

Hi from Annie in Australia. You look lovely in all those clothes and I still have those twin sets but after hearing you say its a big older style I will only wear them around the house now. I notice you hair is getting a bit shorter bit by bit that is good as I mentioned before a pixie short layered hair cut would be nice on you I have worn these short pixies for years as they are not ageing they actually make one look younger and gives a fresher face look. I colour my hair with henna powder it can be black brown copper brass red auburn shades any of those depends on what combination you mix powder in as it comes in basic shades I mentioned and one can still mix them up for a change, I don't do blonde any more as my skin is too sensitive to the bleach etc . Have you thought of changing hair colour from time to time for fun? Age and posture is a big one I have to work on it a lot. Your little pooch Desi is so cute and loveable makes life better doesn't he. You must have a hundred dresses all so very nice, I still get lots clothes from the op shops last week got a bag of clothes for $5 they do that couple times a year summer and winter etc and I love a bargain. One day I was in op shop and got a blouse just like one of your floral ones you showed us and I was so pleased so when I wear it I think of you.

My Grandmother was 103 when she passed and she wore bright earrings and scarfs and absolutely LOVED life. She set an example for me and I hope to pass it on to my nieces. Dream on!!!

I am 73 years old and I am living my best life. Last Saturday night at this time, I was at the Chris Brown concert with my daughter in law. I have discovered that it is important to stay current and to continue to do the things that make you happy. Life is good as long as you enjoy it.

Hi Susan. I feel like I age 10 years every day. I think I have mentioned that my finance Mark is dying. He is under hospice care. I got out Monday for 2 mri. First time I've been out of the house in 4 months at least. The nurse could tell a big difference in Mark. He is at the stage of life where he sleeps alot and eats less. I have to keep up with his intake and out take. He is very grumpy. He doesn't want to be bothered or touched or asked questions. He really does not want to talk. I make myself walk a mile daily. I stopped showering or doing anything for 3 months. 2 weeks ago I cut my hair off. It was below my shoulders. Now itz up to my ears. My hair was dead. I was hurting in physical pain and emotional pain. I have very little support. I have a eating disorder. I don't get hungry or taste food. It's a ms issue. I don't sleep alot. I felt like I was dying with Mark a little bit daily for months and honestly I fight those feelings daily. I'm in tears writing this. I have a friend that text me every day to ask if I've eaten and to say I love you. I'm proud of you. My mother doesn't do this. My mother is sick. She needs back surgery number 6. This will be the worst surgery and she may not make it. Mark sleeps most of the day. I am grateful I have my art. I have fallen in love with water colors and gel inks. I have sold some of my pieces. I would be honored to create something for you. I like adding names to my work. I did a cat for my former piano teacher. I did the cat in black and silver and white. I made it piano theme. I drew tiny notes. I wrote famous composers names on it. She is framing it to hang in her studio. She still teaches. I feel so lost. I have ms and more. So I had to have a mri of my neck and brain. I kept our neighbors Yorkie for a few days while she was in the hospital. I'm on Facebook. Please pray for us. Life is not easy but we make it work.

Hi Susan! Thanks so much for this inspiring video! I thought I would share what I do. I’m 70 years old and a lead singer in a rock band. You’re so right about keeping our voices in shape as we age, so I make it a point to sing every day. Also I like to dress in more current styles, sometimes edgy, sometimes boho. It all keeps life more fun! I’ve recently lost my husband of 33 years so my life is totally different now but I am determined to keep moving forward and to not give up on living. Thanks again for all of your inspiring videos! You’re a Godsend! ❤️❤️❤️

Hi Susan, Thank you for another inspiring video. I would add a couple of things to your suggestions. I believe our hair is so important to the way we look and how we feel about ourselves. As the years go by, our hair becomes thinner which can age us by ten or more years. I am 67 and began wearing wigs about five years ago and feel so much more confident when I leave the house. I would also add maintaining our dental health and having our teeth whitened can make us feel more youthful. 🌺

Exercise makes you happier, camouflage really doesn't work because what's underneath your clothes is out of shape and overweight. Take care of your body by eating healthy, lifting weights and really taxing your body through exercise. I'm 70 and I work hard to stay in shape, no excuses, do the work.☺

Love this! I’ll be 67 next month, it’s a big number yes and 2021 has not been my best year…losing my home in a fire and forced into retirement however I can honestly say with challenges come insight and I am happy to say I am on the other side. Love from my family has helped and I am grateful but the bottom line it was up to me to get back on my feet and realize I have a lot more living I want to do. It may sound silly but Pilates has helped me so much…it helped to me to realize how strong I am both physically and emotionally. Thanks Susan you are a blessing.

I retired at 63 and started learning to play the bass guitar. Now, at 65, I'm playing in the worship band at church. Now I have to think about "stage clothes" - okay, maybe not sequins, it IS church after all - but I always want to look my best when up on the stage. Even during Covid, I never would sit around the house in sweats. That always sounded just so sad to me. So, how do I make myself look my best? I always wear clothes that make me feel wonderful. I put makeup on (and have learned that lighter coloured eye shadow enhances my colouring now). I sometimes even curl my hair but not often - my hair is very fragile as I've gotten older, so I'm very careful with it. Interestingly enough, I embraced my salt-and-pepper hair about 10 years ago and I get lots of compliments on the colour. Even gray hair doesn't detract from looking and feeling my best. It's all in the attitude, isn't it, Susan?

At the age of 65 and due to the great recession of '08, I was taken aback by the situation I found myself in -- over 60, laid off, losing all my 401K, and no employer returning my calls or interviews. I finally concluded that being a woman of a certain age, I was just supposed to retire to my front porch and rocking chair and be done with it. I was still too full of energy and excitement for a life still to be lived and explored, so I joined one of my sons who was interested in moving to Thailand to become a teacher. I have now lived here for almost 11 years, and at the age of 76, am busier, happier, and more fulfilled than most anytime I can recall. First, the Thai people admire, respect and appreciate older people, and when you're still full of life, they celebrate it. I now spend most of my time either teaching at local universities or with private students as well as curating and helping young Thai artists and am constantly surrounded by younger friends who enjoy my company and what I have to offer and share. Sometimes just going for it makes all the difference! I am younger in spirit and attitude as well as looks and health than when I was stressed out and working for lawyers and politicians till my mid 60s and am so happy I was pushed along to try new adventures. My youth and vitality have returned, and I recommend do overs and new beginnings no matter what age.

I'm 61 and I just feel my health slipping away so I feel so darn old. It's been a rough year but I am going to smile more and power through. Two things I do for myself every day to help feel better is to take a walk around our neighborhood, weather permitting, and praying a rosary every day. Both help my anxiety so much. Also, I try to remember to count my blessing and focus on the good instead of the difficult things and that always helps. You look great in all your outfits. I totally agree about cardigans being aging, though I do love them so. I think I'll keep them to wear around the house. I love seeing your little guy at the end of your videos.

But mainly because I am blessed with my health, my joy for life, my wonderful husband and family, so, I don’t feel whatever “70” is supposed to feel like. I worked at Starbucks for 17 years, and nothing keeps you young like working with a bunch of young people! But none of them believed my age.

Hello Susan, I have only recently discovered this wonderful channel that you have created. You are such a beautiful woman with a lovely voice. Sometimes when you are feeling low, I find myself shedding a tear or two for you; you are so real. Susan, I recently viewed one video on aging; it was the most profound I have ever seen. I recently turned 78 and every word spoke directly to me. Some of the things you mentioned were that we are no longer the same, we look different and we don't even recognize ourselves. These things have been on my mind for sometime now and I thought it was only me until you made them sound so logical. I am in hopes that you can provide me with the video name so that I can view again. You are such a wonderful speaker, perhaps you could find your way to speak on Ted Talks. Their audience would love you. Thanks, Susan, I hope to hear from you.

PEGGY!!! Happy Birthday, Early!!!

Thank you and Desi again. God has blessed each of you with each other! You are both appreciated and loved!

I get so encouraged watching you.... You inspire me to take better care of myself..... My outlook, appearance and overall well being. Thank you for being so uplifting!!!

I dance outside in the backyard in the summer sun with my granddaughter to Motown oldies. We laugh with joy !

Over the past year I discovered that I like to wear bright colors and patterns. Before that I only wore solids. I still like my solid colors but am leaning more toward bright colors and now I know why because you explained it so well. I am around the same size and height as you and I am going to start wearing belts and jackets because I like the way you pair them with dresses. Oh, and I loved that pink jacket! Much love to you and Desi ❤

Susan thank you for this uplifting video. I am 67 and many people tell me my complexion looks much younger. I try to use natural uncomplicated products and for years I have used goat milk soap to cleanse my face. It works for me. My biggest problem is my weight. I have some difficulty loosing weight. You look fabulous lately and it is a pleasure to be subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work and say hi to Desi!!!😀

Well…I need to rethink my entire wardrobe…😂

I saw that Oprah show when it came out , moisturizing was her thing and she never married. Aging is an attitude you have a fabulous attitude, my attitude sense of humour and zest for life keeps me in the game . Yes posture, now at 72 I do shoulder and posture exercises every day. Yes Susan our voices can really weaken . I’m writing a book hope to get it finished one day . My husband that has taken ill our attitude is keeping our life love and dreams intact , and for those that have an issue with my / our life frankly darling I don’t care , I think more women as we age should adopt it , this is truly our time and we should grab every thing we want and love along the way . Dezi you and Mom are looking fabulous in polkadots:) Hugs XoX

Wonderful tips on how to embrace aging, continue to look our very best, and remain young at heart! I'm so glad you brought up the Voice! At 75, I still have one! We all do, no matter our age, and we have something important to say. It saddens me when I hear older women speak softly and tentatively - almost apologetically, as if what they have to say has little value. Yes, we need to exercise our voice in the ways you suggested. I've been a singer all my life and I'm very fortunate to have a group of friends who are musicians/singers; we meet at least once/week for a 2-hour jam. It's the highlight of my week - singing , laughing and being silly with friends on a regular basis - what could be better? You are the best, Susan - I appreciate you and never miss your videos. Have a great week! Love, Lo. xo

Thanks for your positive reminders! I love love love the fashion suggestions. Hope you and Desi have a beautiful week ahead!

You always hit the nail on the head Suzy!! I relate 100% with everything you share. I recently sold my house and basically disposed of more than 50% of my cherished furniture, housewares, antiques and gorgeous decorative items, including art. You mentioned fatalist. That’s why I did it. My kids don’t care for my things and will trash all of it anyway when I’m gone so I basically gave the majority away to strangers during a garage sale who showed an interest. I try to assure myself that my years of collecting and decorating will live on in somebody else’s life. I now live in a small 2 bedroom Apt and after 2 months am still struggling to find storage spaces for my goodies. At the same time my apartment is brimming with the things that help define my personality. Sort of a Pandora’s box. I’m loving how it is all coming together. Visually it is pleasing to me, although I would love more room to spread out and also more sunlight. I am impressed with myself for getting through that giant step of selling and moving. I’m also looking forward to 70 in 3 years and I am excited about recovering the better of myself. As a young woman, I always had a strong identity, and had a great deal of fun in my life. I’m trying to get back to finding who I am today and how that looks to live it. Thank you Suzy!!! You are a doll and I love you! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

I truly loved this video, for those of us who've list our moms before we were at an age to have benefited from what you talked about, well it's precious and powerful so thank you.

Great thoughts to keep our spirits high as we head into our later years!Color splashes added to darker or lighter colors is a game changer!Love the jackets over dresses!Desi you have the gift of style too!

Dear Susan, You will be very proud of me. While shopping at TJ MAXX awhile back I met a very nice clerk. We live in the same area and just hit if off. We blabbed and had fun. Later I thought that I wish we were friends. So about 6 wks later. I happened to be in there and walked by her station. She commented, that I had a pretty blouse on. I thanked her and went on. About 30 more min. of retail therapy, I went back over there and she was not busy so I asked her would she like to go to lunch sometime. I said I am not weird or selling anything, I just liked our conversation. So we exchanged numbers and addresses. Trying to make new friends is important. Love all you videos.

I went back to boxing have my own stationery bag and gloves and darn good upper body definition-5’3 119pounds- oh. I love the St Germaine lipstick it’s drop dead gorgeous! Your Mom had to be a looker ❤️I wore the lipstick with a white button down pearls and jeans -I love the classy look- my daughter is always saying it’s a little young and I Say Good.. 75 and I look 50.

Keep on keeping on 😊 ✌ from the Bay Area of California

Really enjoyed this! You reminded me about my posture! I have work cardigans I have to wear and when I was in the office kitchen, I overheard a customer telling my manager how nice that "older lady" who works here was to her...and it was me! You asked ways I make myself feel great...I travel a lot by car and have a Spotify Playlist of my concert songs. I air guitar, air drum and sing out loud to these songs whenever I drive. Keeps me in a great mood!

You are so pretty Kathy!!! Are we ever going to meet!!!

I think it’s funny but wonderful that you mention singing . I am a singer and did it with a family musical group for years . I started singing when I was four years old and am now going to be 67 years old this February . I’m still singing now , and in fact still singing in public for different kinds of community and church events . I’m happier I think while aging because I still love music and sing !

OH YES DIXIE!!!! I think signers carry a special joy in their hearts....and they have to sing to make the world a much better place!!! Not to mention, it keeps us looking healthier!

You look great Susan!! I’m 56 and get told all the time I look way younger it makes me feel so great but also makes me very nervous like how am I going to keep this up!!!

Had to comment again I struggle with looking towards the future and I’m only 56 but I feel like my life is over sometimes. I’ve experienced the happiness and sadness of growing older. I’ve list my parents been married for 35 years , have 3 kids and 4 grandkids. I feel like sometimes I have nothing else to look forward to.

Love your outlook on life and your advice. I’m 61 and love fashion but I hear what you say about ‘cleaning the closet cupboards out just incase..”. Live for today. Love from England 🇬🇧😘

Love you and Desi. I turned 54 this year and struggling with what I want to do from here. You are such and inspiration and a bright spot in my day.

I enjoyed every second too. Heartwarming.

I LOVED every minute of this! Thank you for inspiring me to keep dreaming . Your timing is meant to be at this moment in my life. I felt like you were talking to ME! Many blessings to you dear one.

Hi Susan, Great video. Wearing the right colors is so important and it doesn't have to cost a lot. Good point about not wearing dull cardigans and wearing form fitting shorter jackets. . Having the right hairdo is also important. Get your hair done more often too!

I just found your channel and I just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos, you are beautiful, your home is very warm and inviting( I love how you find treasures and put them together so nicely) and I just love Desi in his little bow ties, he's a sweetie. Keep sharing with us and know that your friends are lucky to know your beautiful soul, keep smiling!

Thank you for your wonderful videos, Susan. I believe your beautiful smile, voice and sense of humor also keep you young. I look forward to your videos. You are a gift to all of us. 🤩✨🙏🏼

You look so beautiful in those outfits! You are not corny at all. Love what you are doing and how you have made your story beautiful!!!

Continued. I pressed th button by accident. So we would shine our light on them and it was amazing! It worked most of the time! We had a lot of fun with that! You can't keep it if you don't give it away. This is what works for me. Some days are harder than others to pull it off. Thanks, Little Poet, another great video!

right on. good posture and a smile a must. :) hug connie

This was a great topic and so uplifting. I also appreciate that you decided to give us a video on your staycation. You are very sweet!

Hi Susan, i like to make the choice each morning and it's so easy to start the day this way. Choose Joy. It make such a difference ❤

I call my dream list my Holy Grail List. I've already crossed off the 1st three things on it and have just added Nice, France to it as well. Unfortunately, not all women are created equal. Some have thick gorgeous hair while others, like me, have fine thinning hair. Some have porcelain looking skin while others have severely wrinkled skin no matter what skincare products they try. Good grooming is very important with aging, tho. I also feel that beauty and youthfulness come from a positive attitude, self confidence, self worth, and being grateful. I just turned 86; but mentally and emotionally, I'm somewhere in my late 40's. I never leave the house without lipstick, earrings, and a hat. I have several serious health issues but I always try to put one foot in front of the other and move forward as long as I am able.

I love all your videos and you amaze me that you always hit the mark with new posts every week. I have learned so much from you and I look forward to them every week. You and rxstr are my favorites. I am 77 and love make up and fashion and these videos keep me up to date. I also live alone so I love your tip on vocal chords. I do have that problem so I am taking your advice to start singing to myself. One of my tips is that I do keep in touch weekly with a friend or any of my fabulous grand children! They are a true blessing and keep me moving! So important.

Making music with my band makes me feel absolutely fabulous! To be with musicians and share music and create music is so very special. I am very blessed to be able to make music with my daughter, son in love and some great friends. It keeps me feeling alive and relevant. It gives me a purpose beyond going to work and the same old hum drum. I really need that!

Yes I'll be 67 this Nov, and l walk an hour or more a day. It really helps to slim the belly and hips!

Loved all the dresses, the pink jacket and absolutely loved that light washed jean jacket. so cute! Have a good weekend Susan and handsome little Desi.

Susan I love the fashion show but I always do the clothes look so nice on you. I love clothes and bright colors I love to visit with my friends and family, go out to dinner and just laugh until my belly is sore. If we believe we are old , we’re going to be perceived as old. Live and act the age you feel , never let anyone take that image away. Be that women that is upbeat, happy and stylish. I’m 70 and love every minute of it But nobody thinks I’m 70 which I really enjoy that also. Have a wonderful staycation !!!! thanks for sharing ❤️

Hi Susan ! I loved this video ! We got back from the wedding and it was just beautiful and the weather in Luddington on the beach was windy but so gorgeous and sunny! I brought my kids back and they just went home so I'm catching up! I have talked about this subject about looking younger myself in a video ! Posture is so important and mine stinks ! I bought a back brace to try and help me stand straighter! That's a great idea about ur voice practicing! Ur clothes are amazing and u are hip! You look amazing for 67 ! You got it all !
