The Color of your Skin Doesn’t Matter! Your hair can be long, short, natural,weave, even a 1980’s mullet and Doc Martins with Crush Velvet (I don’t even know…child…) but wear it with confidence.
You have to feel that love and admiration, even from a hater. If you prefer the 1980’s but are a little afraid,maybe have a retro party with close friends who appreciate big bangs, hairspray and layers of sock. Maybe,you are not ready for the Patti Labelle hair hat, just as of yet.
They may be envious of you because YOU can pull it off, and you took that fashion risk.
3 women can wear the same dress, but if you don’t have that confidence, and beauty that embodies grace, you have wasted your time.
Take pride in yourself.
You are amazing, and adventurous. Those clothes, are an accessory for your unique swagger, and gorgeous face. These women are gorgeous, and all of different races an and different hair styles. You keep being confident, you with your bad ass!
All of these looks work, because the confidence is more important than the clothes.
You will stand in the light, and will have fashion mishaps too. Don’t worry,but again if you are confident you won’t give a damn.
If you are not ready to go out with your hair stacked up to Jesus, or don’t invest in Aqua net Hair Spray have an 1980’s theme party. Don’t let someone tell you to play fashion, safe. That is not for you, if you have confidence.
On messymandella.com I love digging through the crates of my parents music and finding beauty in hidden hits, or obscure soul ballads that the Billboard Charts missed, or didn’t give their proper due.
We have showcased Regina Belle, who of course is a Broadway Actress and she is famous for her duet, with Peabo Bryson on the song, “A Whole New World (Aladin’sTheme)” and numerous other hits that you memorized, but had no idea who the songs originated from, during the “Slow Jamz“ period. We know that Gerald Levert has and always will be “The Voice” and “The Teddy Bear” and Teena Marie, is always and Forever “Lady T.”
It is romantic and you can you use your imagination to tell that person how you want them and need them. She wants to be in his arms and she belongs to him, and it didn’t cost anything…
Women spend thousands of dollars on cosmetics and skin care lines, with the sole purpose and effort to look more youthful,to hide their age. We have a billion dollar industry in aging products alone,because being older is deemed less attractive. When men go through their mid-life crisis, they search for any signs that they are still attractive,and it is a plus if the woman is the closer to the age of the daughter vs. the age of the mother.
According to the tabloids and infomercials,we must eliminate any signs of skin maturity and nature taking it’s course, right? No! Angelina Jolie is breath-taking, the older she gets the increasing of her natural aging process taking place.
She looks organically elegant,and she still raises her children and lends her time to charity work. Angelina, didn’t get her cheeks higher, duck lips,or an obvious eye lift. Gabrielle Union is a doll,and we can’t forget Stacey Dash, and they all our over the age of 40 years old. All of these women’s age complimented their beauty. We can hide behind our own insecurities if we assume younger is gorgeous, and over 40 years older is just aging well... Aging and weight are always issues with any women and allurement is always comparative, even before mental strength. However, we sometimes get better with time, if we let our natural beauty become enhanced. We don’t need to remodel our faces until we look unrecognizable.
As a mother and an actress Kate has to compete with models that are 20 years younger, because according to standards we have set as a society, younger is better. If you enter a room with LisaRaye Mccoy Angela Bassett, Halle Berry, or that age is simply a number. Glamour is more evident when self-confidence is part of the question.
We must become more at ease and finally accept that women will go through an abundance of plastic surgery to compare with a younger generation. If you put Kate Beckinsale in a room full of women 20 years younger, she will steal the spot light and prove that real women age, like fine wine.
