I used to work for a well known o gynecologist in Beverly Hills and I would often wonder how do these women keep their skin looking flawless? One day I got up the nerve to ask a patient whose skin was flawless I mean she barely had any wrinkles..and she was 80 years old. I thought for sure she can afford really expensive creams, dermatologist but what she said to me completely shocked me. Her secret nighttime routine was using VASELINE!!! 🙈 she would wear bold statement necklaces and would wear her clothes with so much confidence but her best assets was her sweet and humble heart. I totally agree with all your tips. My number one tip I will give you is to draw closer to God. The Joy of The Lord is our strength and that’s how I wake up every morning regardless how I wake up feeling I stay grateful every morning. Gratitude will outshine anything. Stay active even in the winter when we can’t go outside grab stretching bands or if you can afford a total gym machine do Pilates. When possible go for a walk or ride a bike..remember that when we have Jesus dwelling in our hearts we cannot fear the future ☺️❤️🙏

[@nancydriscoll507]

Well said Eve.Lovely words that speak volumes ! God is and Always will be my Strength and My Rock ! God Bless U and Yours .xx

Being the LORD’s light as He has appointed us to be. Having the joy of Jesus!😍

Dear Kay.. I am 83 and have feeling dejected due to back problems and living alone without family support, but after watching your video i feel inspired again.. thankyou xx

[@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms]

Bless you Maureen. You have a purpose and you are needed. Press on and live beautifully! 🥰

[@gaetanetheriault7877]

Dear Maureen…I have been feeling like this especially this winter. I gained 8 lbs and not sure why…I am 78 and soon to begin walking so I can lose 8 lbs. My summer wardrobe would definitely look better. Good luck to you! ❤

[@Pauline-wu4ej]

You are a brave woman, well done, we all need to think like this.

[@cynthiagreen1432]

I love Kay’s philosophy - instead of trying to desperately hold on to one’s youth, accept that you will grow older and look older. Just look your best for whatever age you are. Kay has grace and poise and this accentuates her “total package” and helps her to look lovely and glowing. She has the right approach!

[@user-ex1ps6iq7l]

"Graceful women are joyful women." So true, Kay!!

[@toyaandprincesslifehacks]

Yep yep yep

[@gaetanetheriault7877]

A Graceful women is a woman that takes time to prayer each day. God will give her a facelift! Their countenance is different. They have the peace and joy of the Lord!

[@sjsp7631]

Aging is a gift not everyone gets to do it. Embrace the journey with love and joy!

This was one of the best messages I've heard in a long time! I am 56 and in college, working on a degree! Never too old to learn!!

[@maryokeefe5351]

Wow, you go girl!

[@joannthompson4410]

Perseverance does work! I went back to college in my 40’s then got a Masters as Nurse Practitioner & finished year I turned 55. You can do it!!!

[@sjsp7631]

Congrats on pursuing your education. Way to be inspiration to all younger women that ambition and dreams are lifelong!!

[@user-ex1ps6iq7l]

You go! I was 50, paid it all myself and worked fulltime. No one can ever take your education from you! You go sister!

[@vicwil2423]

Absolutely! “Life-long learning” for sure. I’m retired and am about 3/4 of the way to a second undergraduate degree in an area completely different than what my career was. The advantage is that I can take one or two courses at a time instead of a full academic load.

[@amymcleod9503]

I can’t imagine that as an influencer, you are allowed to age gracefully! Some viewers can be so cruel in their comments! Another influencer I watch is a gorgeous 60 something and recently decided she was going to let her dyed hair grow out. Due to the mean comments she received, she changed her mind! We women need to be more understanding and respect other women’s’ choices whether it is plastic surgery or just allowing nature to take her course! Excellent topic Kay!

[@amandazplace5663]

I agree. Sadly, though, it's hard to see this range of choices on social media or KZbin. It doesn't reflect the real world in any way. I find, the less I view unrealistic examples of aging on the screen, the less the ideas and suggestions around that pop into my brain. When I'm lovin' on my family and friends, volunteering, whatever I'm doing, noone cares about my wrinkles & grey hair. People are invested in me for more than physical perfection. Kay's tips are health & happiness promoting, without being shallow.

[@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms]

Thanks for watching Amy. Honestly, I just don’t have the money, the time or the energy to do otherwise. It’s an uphill battle! And I’d much rather be relatable than some sort of out of touch ideal. Here’s to aging gracefully! 🥂

[@vicwil2423]

Consider the source: these folks clearly have no class and no manners. Ignore them.

[@KarenDGobsmacked]

That is so sad about that woman...ugh! People can be so mean.

[@teresacarle294]

😖 Discovered that people, esp. women, have pretty strong ideas about hair color (& style) too. In fact, the ladies seem quick to discuss what doesn't work & why in great depth😭. Worse, we 🤜bash🤛 things that might not suit our personal standards of taste, but can still be considered attractive. 🤗Started going gray around the very front in a thin line of hair that framed my face @ 30. I have very fine hair, but I proudly called this layer my 🦁mane. Honestly, it's such that if I pulled my hair up w/a clip or headband, you would boldly see it. If I wore it down, only hints of it would 👀peek through. My 💗beloved mother had been extremely upset😱 about this shocking development. Mostly, bcos she said it "aged" her. Although she didn't object quite as much when my slightly older brother started on his own amazing color journey about that same time. 😉When I went to donate my hair to make wigs for ill kids, the clerk said they didn't accept dyed hair. Now, it was true that my dark brown hair had auburn highlights in it. She just didn't believe🤣 it was a naturally occurring phenomenon. 🤨In fact, she remained highly skeptical when I said it routinely gets bleached by the LA sun😎. Left my hair au naturale for the next decade, but eventually did dabble in some 🖌️non-permanent hair color. (My gray mane would turn reddish with dye around my face.) Seeing the gray gone pleased my 😘mom. 🤗When I decided to let my own hair go natural again, I took a lot of flack from the ladies😔. Rather startling how many strangers liked to share their totally unsolicited opinions on the subject too. The females were 💯% negative. Although some were far less harsh than others.😏Looking young is highly coveted here, so I didn't take it too personal. ✂️The girls & the gays wanted me to hack it off too. The heterosexual males were surprisingly positive about my multi-shaded brown hair (& longer length). 🥳The difference is that the disapproving men in this category never bothered to say it. 👏 Late 50s now, my "mane" has morphed into pure white. The majority remains varying shades of brown with a few threads of gray, but I still don't make any effort to hide it. 🤩Just remain thankful for every single strand! Since my mom passed in 2000, whenever a woman brought the subject up, I'd treat it as if she was sending nudges🙆‍♀️ from the beyond🌌. Whenever I get a compliment, esp. directed rather surprisingly from a younger man, I chalk it up to 🥰God simply wanting to bolster my spirits that day. 🏆Win-win! It's perfectly fine to color your hair or change it's structure (from straight to curly or vice versa). I fully understand why all the reasons ppl do these things, but I decided it's no longer right for me. In the end, I'd rather not be chastised for opting out. A part of me feels sad about ppl that chase extremes in cosmetic surgery, but I don't believe in shaming those who decide to get a nip or tuck here or there. To each their own. I admire ppl that put tremendous effort into their beauty routine in order to get influencer/model/celebrity quality hair, skin, face & physique. I just decided to scale down my own regimen. There came a point, I no longer wished to use excessive make-up, chemical treatments, or force my hair to do what it clearly wasn't meant to do on a daily basis. I don't hold myself in higher esteem for deciding to go a more minimal route, but neither do I wish to be disgraced for it. I believe there's room for all sorts of style & beauty in this world🌎. How boring it would be if we all looked the same! 💚 Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)

[@cindeed4422]

What is a graceful woman? She’s you Kay! You are truly an inspiration to us women in our 50’s! I’m almost 55 an official senior citizen and people are shocked! I love it. Aging doesn’t mean you stop living! I’m a worker bee. I work 2 jobs and is very active in my church. I love these tips. You have such great things to say. Live a quality life and you will live a great life. And walk with Jesus Christ. The epitome of grace.

Oh, that is so kind of you to say, Cindee. Thank you. You ladies are a blessing and inspiration to me, too.

[@darlenebergantzel1534]

Thank you for reminding me that I don’t need to give up as I get older. I’m approaching 70, recently retired, and single. I think we need to decide to age gracefully, and that’s what I choose. The past 2 years have been tough, first injuring my ankle, then quarantine. I was very active before the ankle injury and even after it healed, the quarantine set in, so I stopped being active and taking care of myself. Once ‘bad habits’ set in, they are hard to break, but today I will start working on ‘good habits’.

[@davidcooker6903]

Hello, how are you doing, hope your staying safe?

Thank you Kay, I needed to hear this today. I sometimes forget that we need to do something for ourselves everyday. I’m 72 years young, a widow and still finding my way... my late husband and I loved to travel and see the world after he retired. It was hard to take that first trip without him, but I did and grew stronger for it. Your tips today have been so spot on for me. Keep up the good work!

[@halliebass]

There are groups for women travelling. You can scope them out or get a travel buddy. Single supplements can be a pain, but if you have a roomie that you can travel with. You can do a shortie trip…weekend or something similar to see if you are compatible. I have longtime friend who lives in Ireland and I visit her and we do a girlie city break…London, Paris, Malaga etc. I also roomed with a guy I know well on a trip to Italy… no romantic stuff, just friends and we did fine both interested in history and art. I know that one is a toughie, but we got on great and there were no problems. Or if you have grown kids….I loved travelling with my mother.We had a lot of fun! Good luck. Things will be different without your husband but new adventures can be ahead. Take care.

I think Americans are particularly all about looking younger….anti aging….and being against older women in particular….about time we embrace and value aging women ….being allowed to age is a privilege

I recently discovered Dressed for My Day and can't thank you enough, Kay, for sharing your beauty and fashion tips, as well as your faith. You absolutely nailed it with your tips for aging gracefully, and throughout my journey, I've tried to abide by every one of them. As a retired teacher/high school administrator, I continue to substitute teach. During the pandemic, I covered a teacher's 5-month maternity leave and taught 6th graders every day in person. It was one of the most rewarding experiences of my career! Not only did I enjoy the students and the camaraderie of younger teachers, but I continued to learn new teaching techniques and technologies. Thanks for your encouragement!

Good morning, Kay! Usually your awesome blog/video information is like beautiful home decor....it makes our "homes" attractive and inviting to others. (While always grounded with the BFMD pieces).... Then days like today, it's about the architecture. Structural info to give us firm foundational stones to build from. I am so grateful to be blessed by the work God does through you! I love pretty curtains, but the structure holding them needs to be strong and secure, or they just won't hang right. So glad you don't lose sight of balancing the frills with sound floor joists (ha!)

Thank you Kay for inspiring me to step outside of my normal routines. I am 56 and needed to hear the keep learning segment of your presentation. I am a joyful, peaceful and content believer, follower and servant of Jesus. Sometimes too content. I enjoy cooking, gardening and shopping of course! Going to give knitting a whirl, and volunteering in a new area at church. Thank you Kay! You are the epitome of a truly graceful woman.

Oooohhhh Nice… never to old to try something different

[@kayrichardson6040]

Kay, this is --- I think--- the best video you have ever produced. I really needed to hear it today as I have recently retired and am struggling with my path. There have been a few too many "graceless" days I'm afraid! Today I am committing to go to the gym and talk to the staff about weight lifting! Thank you so much. (Saving this one to watch again!)

What a wonderful video! Thank you! I’m 72 and trying to age gracefully…..so am writing down all your tips!

[@2CorgiMom]

I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this video! Such great advice and tips. I think sometimes that people have forgotten to give grace and kindness in our day-to-day lives. Thank you so much for these great reminders.

Happy birthday!!

[@lauriekemp3998]

Hey Kay. Thanks for the positive messages to all of us aging gals. I'm 62 and feel great. I do have days when the mirror is sometimes too much reality but the best we can do is take good care of ourselves. Keep learning keep moving and love yourself.

I was so happy to find you on You Tube. I am a young 66, and I like dressing in feminine and classic clothes. I had been looking for someone that would show styles for my age group. So many of the gals on here are closer to my kid's ages! I agree that knowing the Lord makes all the difference in ageing gracefully.

[@anitaclemens2609]

Those are great tips, Kay. I struggle to change my make up routine. I want to simplify it, make it more neutral. So I keep trying new palettes. It is a work in progress. I agree with the learning thing, I took crochet and knitting classes a few years ago, it was a lot of fun to learn something new. I am 67 years old,and yesterday, I took a boxing class, which was way different than anything I have ever done. A lot of hitting the bag and the instructors padded gloves. So weird to hit something when all our lives we are told to keep your hands to yourself. I also like the grace idea, being patient with everyone, slow drivers, elderly people at the cash register in front of you, etc. Just be nice to people is good advice. I talk to a women in my Step class and found out her cat passed away on Sunday, I bought her a Sympathy card and will give it to her tomorrow in class, I know what it feels like to have to make that judgement call to put your beloved pet down. Also, I would love to make friends with younger people, I just don't know where to find them, people seem to be staying close to home during Covid. We use to have more young women in the gym to talk to, but possibly they are staying home with their children these days. I like the age I live in, it is very interesting to be alive now, but so many of my friends (on FB, especially) who are my age are living in the past, so often they remember how great it was, but it wasn't that great for many people, it was just nice to be young and carefree. I do agree with the weight baring exercises, so important for our bone health. Thank you, Kay. I wish I really knew you as a neighbor, come to Massachusetts some day. :-)

[@marydalessio7588]

[@brifren2]

This is a wonderful video! So meaningful, helpful and filled with hope for those who fear aging so much. My parents and grandparents aged very gracefully, we are French and in our country it is part of our culture in some way. It is important to learn to love and respect ourselves, and that allows us to want to be who we are no matter our age. All it takes is look and feel our best in a natural, comfortable and beautiful way, be kind and graceful, cultivate our positive mindset, interests in life and continue to care about others. Our health is vital too so we need to take care of ourselves the best we can. Thank you for your great message! )

[@MyPammer]

Great video! I'm 54. I hadn't gone into menopause yet, however after being diagnosed with Leukemia the chemo kicked me into menopause. That weight gain made me realize I needed to rethink things. This was very helpful.

Bless you. 💕

[@virginiehelm5366]

Thank you for this video! I completely agree with you, grace is the key when you age, although it is a real commitment! Staying natural and assuming yourself is the best path through life. You are and look great!

[@kelleyfreeman401]

I loved this topic so much! Lots of food for thought for me, especially about giving grace and "putting feet" to those good intentions. I have felt a bit convicted to volunteer in a local senior center, but I have been telling God "but I'm not great with older folks." I am a nurse, a pediatric nurse by choice for all of my nursing career because I love kids and I know God led me there. However, God is telling me that I need to share my love of card making with the folks at my senior center. He has already put this on my heart and hearing you say it is the push I needed. It's officially going on my short "to do" list to meet with the activity director and find out if there is a place for me to get busy and share my crafty hobby and engage with my older boomer generation. God Bless you Kay, thanks for sharing what was on your heart!

[@marilynpeppers1356]

Consider teaching card-making at a community center or a church group or local library also. I’m in my 70’s and I would love to attend such a class. 💜💜💜

[@kelleyfreeman401]
