It’s My Birthday!

I choose not to lament each birthday or view the results of aging as something I should try to fix. I fully realize this is the best time of my life. I am happy, confident, healthy, and grateful.

I’ve been blogging for more than eight years. The same questions repeatedly show up in my inbox. Today, I’ll answer the most frequently asked. At sixty-three years old, I weigh one hundred thirty-seven pounds and am five feet five inches tall. My hair is wavy and has been my natural silver/gray color since I turned fifty. I have never had any cosmetic surgery.

My exercise routine includes brisk walking a few miles as often as possible, some Pilates, and stretching to maintain flexibility and balance. I eat organic cruciferous vegetables, leafy greens, root vegetables, berries, nuts, and apples. I sometimes have chicken, lobster, or wild-caught fish but rarely other meat. I do not take any medications.

I have an occasional glass of wine with dinner and a cup of black coffee in the morning. I also enjoy a cup of bone broth, herbal tea, and drink lots of filtered water. I wait until I feel hungry to eat, never by the clock or because other people are eating. Two meals consumed early in the day are almost always enough for me. An appetizer or salad with grilled chicken is often my entree. I avoid sugar, sauces, condiments, and all processed foods. My date, Mr. Mickey, and I always share an occasional dessert because the first half tastes the same as the last.

I wear primarily solid neutral colors in classic styles. The bag is by Teddy Blake here. The link bracelet is by Beauty in Stone here. (Use the code SAS10 For $10 off any item)

I use a whitening bleach supplied by my Dentist about three times a year. I don’t wear foundation makeup, but I use eyeshadow and fill my sparse brows with a gray sculpting pencil. Next, I smudge eyeliner pencil into the top lashes and finish with black mascara. My favorite lip colors are a bit darker than the natural color of my lips.

Thank you for all the lovely comments and emails about The Fall Preview post. I enjoy sharing what I’ve learned because I want to help every woman look and feel her best daily.

  2. Thank you! I don’t use any concealer, but I do add a little Merle Norman chamois eyeshadow at the inner corners of my eyes to brighten the shadows in that area. I stopped wearing foundation around three years ago. It travels into the lines and creases and draws more attention to them. A clean, moisturized face looks natural and healthy. My diet plays a significant part in the health of my skin.

  16. Susan, is this top still available? I couldnt find it, but maybe I’m not looking in the right place. It’s one of my favorites yet!! And I’d like to order one.

    Thank you for a great blog . As usual it was very informative and I soon love all the information help you give. I hope you continue for a long time. You make me think it’s all possible to age well and gracefully.

    1. Thank you, Doris. The top is from a couple of years ago, so they don’t have that exact one. I linked to the pages where you can see similar current styles by Clara Sunwoo.

  17. Happy Birthday Susan! You have been blessed with many gifts of beauty, but you choose to be a beautiful person on the inside! In the little time I’ve got to spend with you, I’ve learned just how kind, wonderful, charming, gracious and genuine you are. My life has been blessed since I’ve known you as I’m sure many have. I hope you enjoy your day and have many more years to live your best life and share it with others.

  18. Wishing you a very “Happy Birthday”. Life certainly looks good on you! I have been inspired by you since I started following your blog about 4 years ago. I am about the same age but haven’t quite come around to this being “the best time of my life”. However, your positive outlook and optimism really help me get through each week and I am learning to accept the inevitable rather than fight it with lots of artificial solutions.

  21. Happy Birthday. Your skin is amazing. My 60th birthday is Tuesday and I in the same camp you are- feeling joyful and blessed. Every year seems to get better and better. Not problem free but with age comes wisdom to handle it better. Have a wonderful weekend and thank you so much for blogging. You are an inspiration !

  23. Happy Birthday, Susan! You are living proof that one must eat (and drink) a healthy diet, engage in good exercise and take care of our largest organ, the skin. Your “inside” is just as beautiful as your “outside”. All the expensive clothes in the world can’t cover up an unpleasant personality. Your friends, especially Mr Mickey, are blessed to know you.

  25. Happy birthday, Susan. You are a lovely reminder that life is wonderful, to be enjoyed, and viewed positively in all its various journeys. You are a beautiful example. Have a fun celebration.

  28. Susan, what color is your bag in this blog. It looks blue but your shoes are tan looking. It seems you usually coordinate your shoes and bag. Correct or not?

    Reply

    1. I sometimes match the shoes and the bag in the general tone, but this time I used a bag that blended with the top. Never match the shoes with the bag if the color cuts you off. For example, I won’t wear black shoes with white pants.

  33. Happy Birthday, Susan. I ditto all the posts above. You are a great example to follow. I’m happy for you, to be enjoying your best years to the fullest. I can’t wait to see what you and Mr. Mickey have planned for the birthday weekend. My best!

    I’ve been following you for the past 5+ years and have incorporated many of you tips into my lifestyle. I turned 60 last February and to date have lost 44lbs. My goal is to reach a healthy visceral fat level and get off the BP medication. Almost there!

    Thank you and best wishes on your birthday and beyond.

      1. I agree with Susan. I have had problems with the strap falling as long as I’ve worn bras! The constant yanking is frustrating! Well, I bought a Shapeez and the straps DO NOT move or slip! Honest! And the bra is very comfortable as well.

    Like your other readers, please consider writing a handbook of your tips.
    At 62, I don’t wear foundation because no matter the formula or the price, it is too cakey on my skin. To achieve a healthy look, I’ve worn tinted moisturizer for years ( my fav is Clarins Super Restorative Tinted Moisturizer with SPF factor ).

    Reply

  64. Somehow one Virgo can always recognize another Virgo! I had a suspicion that you might be that sign. You are so confident and have structured your life to meet your own needs while never ignoring the needs of others.
    So, Happy Birthday, fellow Virgo. My birthday was yesterday. I’ve been enjoying your blogs for several years now and so appreciate what you have to say and offer to others.

    Thank you for all of that. I wish you a year of everything that makes your heart sing.

  147. Susan – you are truly a beautiful and authentic woman. I love your style. I am slowly replenishing my wardrobe with classic neutrals. I too am 63, lost 24 lbs. this year by cutting out all processed foods, sugar, anything “white”, and only eating when hungry. I do not like meat or seafood but will have chicken or turkey occasionally. I limit dessert to very special occasions. I began working with a trainer 4 weeks ago to build muscle, improve flexibility and balance. I have never felt better in my life. I look forward to your blogs.

  164. I’d like to add my wishes to you for a happy birthday. I turned 63 last week and still wonder how I got to be so old! I really enjoy your blog and your willingness to tell us personal things that inquiring minds want to know! I appreciate the fact that you don’t wear much makeup (I agree that foundation makes things worse) and that you’re not ashamed of growing older. I have picked up numerous tips from your blog as well as absorbing your optimistic outlook on life. Thanks for the inspiration that aging gracefully means still looking good and having fun with clothes.
    I do have a question. You seem to eat out a lot at restaurants and I wonder how you stay so trim. Like you, I also have digestive problems, particularly with grains and dairy. What are your strategies for controlling what you eat at a restaurant? Do you not finish the meal? I’d love to see a blog post on this.

    1. I often order a salad or an appetizer instead of an entree. Sometimes Mr. M. and I split a dish. I rarely finish all the food on my plate. When I start to feel full, I stop eating.

I am very grateful to still be here, after having bowel cancer 5 years ago, and appreciate my good health and I really enjoy your blog and seeing what you are wearing! You always look terrific by the way!

    I am in the UK so have to usually try to source similar items to the ones you show, but can most times find a suitable substitute. Really like the photos of all the nice places you visit and am tempted to make another visit to the USA and maybe do a roadtrip, might ask you for ideas!!

    Ah, bless your heart, today is your special day. You could not ask for anything more than what you shared where your life is at. As we age, I truly feel life should get easier if we are blessed with health. I just want to wish you “pure joy” on your birthday today. I hope it has “blessed your socks off”. I am sure your honey Mr. Mickey has seen to that.

    P.S. Thank you for sharing your clothing, jewelry, purses, shoes, etc. with us. We have very similar taste and how we style ourselves. I have purchased several things that you have posted so far. I love the Jess & Jane Mineral Washed Cardigan w/contrast trim in charcoal you just posted. What size are you modeling? I’m very small and bony in the arms (sharpie pencils) but with broad shoulders. I never like a cardigan to fit in a snug way.

I’ve been drawn to the grey, black, and burgundy for fall, just as I have last fall. I have a small capsule wardrobe of this and having fun with the multitude of combinations that I have been coming up with. I was trying to expand my style only to be disappointed, and accumulating too much. I took a good look at your advice, and went back to what worked for me. Keep it simple and have to all go together. Invest in good quality. I am on the look for a great purse that I will get a lot use . So I will keep looking until it is perfect for me.

  204. I have always enjoyed your tips and you look so lovely all the time. I am 20 + years older than you but I want to look good and wear clothing that flatters me. I live in Iowa and have visited Johnson City, TN. many times because my sister-in-law lives there and she loves the area, too. Happy birthday and my birthday is in November, too.
