I’m 55 and aging gracefully – I’ll wear minidresses well above my knees as long as I can, it makes me feel vibrant
A 55-YEAR-OLD influencer doesn’t believe in dressing for a specific age.
She showed off her body in styles that she said were “well above” her knees.
Natalie (@natalieyco) shared the age-positive message in an Instagram video.
The influencer, who urged people to fight back against aging stigmas, explained that she often liked to start with her wardrobe.
“I know I discuss my age…a lot, but that’s what my platform is about,” she said.
“It’s my goal to help inspire us women and men and to remind us that aging is truly how we feel inside.”
The 55-year-old showed off her white off-the-shoulder dress, which she paired with matching white heels and a pair of sunglasses.
“Turning 56 years old in two months. I will still wear dresses above my knees as long as I can!” she said.
Natalie explained that she enjoyed kicking off her birthday celebration with a glamorous outfit.
“Every birthday I love to document the day with a photo of me wearing a dress that makes me feel vibrant,” she said.
“I don’t know what I’ll be wearing this year, yet! But I guarantee it will be above the knees!”
People took to the comments to share encouraging words.
“Like my mama always said, if you got it, flaunt it!” said one inspired viewer.
“I’m 62 and wear the same size as my 26 and 29 year old daughters. I don’t wear things that are clearly too young for me but I still rock leather, faux fur, and skirts and dresses above the knee,” they added.
“I’m 5’10” so most skirts and dresses are short anyway. I’ll know when it’s time to let that part of my style go, but I’m not there yet!”
Some thought she didn’t even look her age.
“If my legs looked like that, you would have to force pants on me,” said one viewer.
