Right to Bare Arms
Recently I have noticed some negative comments on my Instagram feed about women of a certain age showing their arms. Why is that men are allowed to show their arms as they age, but women are made to feel ashamed of their aging bodies? How you dress, express yourself, what you choose to wear and reveal is all a matter of personal choice. It angers me off when people are told that they can’t wear something or that they have to act a certain way, mostly invisible, when they hit 60-years-old(which is young!!!!) Let’s celebrate and empower men and women of all ages! I’ll be sharing photos of glorious women baring their arms on my instagram feed all day. If you would like to join the conversation post your photos with the hashtags #advancedstyleuncovered #advancedstylerighttobarearms

Lately a lot of the men and women I have been photographing over the last 8 years have been starting their own Instagram accounts. They are not only creating a great community of engaged followers interested in aging and style, but also engendering a wonderful conversation about growing older with creativity and vitality. My dear friend Irene Coyazo has just joined Instagram as well! You can follow her account HERE. I’m keeping a running list of Over60 bloggers and instagrammers and would love to hear about some your favorites in the comments below!
