One lady's advice (purely subjective and biased of course) to the men of FL:

HOW TO AGE WELL...

Find a really good vintage look for yourself where you are now in life and at the age you are right now- even if its a vintage decade you hadn't considered before.

Learn a song you really love and sing it loudly with joy.

Dance in the rain with someone that really matters to you; a child, a spouse or sweetheart, your Mom, or a good friend.

Don't "air hug" or "air kiss" anyone- show passion and authenticity.

Play in the sunshine and walk barefoot in the sand- again.

Lose ten pounds if you need to or put on ten pounds if you need to, if healing from stress that way is something that you need to do.

Buy a great hat, even if may look crazy to others and wear it proudly.

Be a REAL friend to someone; that their life is now better for knowing you and your being in their life.

Post some (new) pics of yourself in the "what are you wearing today?" thread -in vintage or not.

Drink more water, eat really excellent dark chocolate.

Learn to play the piano, or the harmonica.

Recognize that life isn't always going a bed of roses- but even when its not, do seek out those roses to smell just the same.
