THE TRUTH ABOUT MY BODY | WEEKLY VLOG

#MiddleAgedMinx #London #Lifestyle
Everyone knows that I love the summer and I love summer fashion. Wearing fewer layers feels liberating and a chance to bring out the shorts. There have been many lovely compliments on this channel about the tone to my arms and legs but really, it’s all a myth. If you look closely they are the limbs of a 67 year old.... it’s just that I know how to film from the best angle!!! Enjoy this week’s episode and spare a thought for my poor editor Filipe. He has dealt with my dodgy filming whilst coping with Covid. We wish him well.

[@salliestephens1252]

Coming over here from Kimberly's "Pretty Over Fifty" channel and I absolutely find you to be everything she says and more. Where have you been all my life? I just adore watching your life adventures, Myrt, and the fun "cast of characters" who make up your day. Thank you Jo! (Btw: the music that Felipe picks is fab!)

[@susangraff259]

From Kimberly's channel too. Hello from North Carolina!

[@amberrichardson5976]

Jo I think you look great, makeup or no makeup! People can be cruel when behind a keyboard! Pay them no mind, you’re very entertaining and informational.

[@gailsokol7832]

What beautiful dresses in that boutique, my husband walked in whilst i was watching your vlog when you was modelling your new short set and his remark was well that lady looks really lovely .

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

oh how lovely...thankyou x

[@PrettyOverFifty]

I've become one of those that can't wait for your next Vlog! Love, love, love watching you and eagerly await your next video! ~Kimberly

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

I am indebted...And so glad I have now found your channel! xx

[@christinehodgson3826]

Your body is fine Jo everyone over 60 has a few thread lines - badges of a life well spent. I do suspect though that you don’t eat enough. Loved the jumpers in the shop you showcased . Not so keen on the dresses though ( bit too little house on the prairie she said softly).

[@laurelvance5533]

Cute jammies 💕

[@CindyG-NYC]

Thank you for the shout out to Kimberly and her channel, Jo. I agree with her description of "Middle Aged Minx". Dave's recommendations are a great addition. You are very generous to your cast, as always!💖

[@joancb7556]

I love love watching your channel. You'd love visiting Greenville, SC in US because we have many beautiful shops, restaurants, venues. My husband semi- retired drives a bus for Rolling Green retirement community...and takes the seniors everywhere. We're moving to the beautiful Lake Murray in Prosperity, SC within the next year and a half, when we get that home built. They call that lake " The jewel of SC". We've working very hard. I am a retired RN, and he is retired from General Electric. Again, I love everything there that you love about life. We've had 2 Bichons...when we move I'm sure we'll get a new puppy of sorts...Keep vlogging...😄

[@mikkibate8610]

You & Myrtle sitting on the stone in the stream ..was so touching ..I got a lump in my throat ...a quiet moment ..with you and your best buddy ...so touching ....

[@sandrap6321]

Loved Laura Ashley back in the day when their clothes were locally made. O. Pioneer reminds me of vintage Laura Ashley. So pretty!!

[@isobellaf1226]

I love your Elliott Erwitt print, a really wonderful photographer of the irony and humour in every day life!

[@chrissiedunlap431]

What a hidden gem you are! I came over here from Kimberly‘s suggestion from Pretty Over 50. You are so encouraging for us ‘mature’ ladies!

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

thankyou x

[@dm55379]

The reason I love watching you is that you are real. We are the same age and I relate with you on so many levels ..makeup isn’t what makes someone attractive at any age… it’s being comfortable in our skin and that’s why I love watching you. Beauty is being real and embracing the different phases of life. At 67…we earned the face we show to the world…and it’s real not plastic. ❤️

[@vanelaguereja]

OMG I like you more and more each day. So genuine and honest and funny. You truly inspire me, I'm 48

[@buttonsacorns3734]

Hi Jo! I found you through Kimberly’s Pretty Over Fifty video. I am enjoying your channel so much. You have wonderful, positive energy and oh my, sweet Myrtle is precious. So happy to have found you and share in your slice of life.

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

Thankyou x

[@nickyroberts001]

Hi Jo, just wanted you to know that I subscribed to your channel after the recommendation from Pretty over 50. Love watching you, keep up the great work, love from New Zealand

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

thank you x

[@zebralove2840]

Get well soon, Filipe. Dave just keeps getting better and better, now he's got a Ramones t-shirt. What a guy. I do not think I could enjoy your vlogs any more than I do, Jo.

[@dijanaharding8111]

Dear Joe, you show the best part of you and that is what we love… it is your wonderful, cheeky and forever young spirit. That is something we all admire!

[@ellenmeilee]

Best wishes to Filipe, I have just got over my first COVID episode and it was 8 days of horrendousness so I hope he’s on the mend now. Love you in that black maxi dress Jo. I have never worn them as I’m about the same height as you and always been wary of them, but you are inspiring me to give them a go. Hope you pick up some new US subscribers too after the lovely shout out you got (well deserved).

[@PrettyOverFifty]

Thank you so much for the lovely mention on your Vlog! I'm truly such a fan and just LOVE watching your very exciting and interesting life Jo! ~Kimberly

[@joannacdunlap]

I love your earrings, so cute! You are wonderful, always makes my day to watch your vlog. Thank you!

[@carolinepagett4236]

What a dog!!! She’s just sooo gorgeous !!! You are so lucky having everything on your doorstep!! Hugs xx

[@bollinger6541]

Myrtle's so cute, her face when getting dressed is adorable, I could watch her all day xx

[@endeavouringit]

me too

[@debcrush9214]

Nobody is perfect Jo and women are always far too critical of themselves. We need to celebrate the uniqueness of our bodies! And your vlog has encouraged me to show off more of the bits I usually hide! Love how that American woman said your vlog is like a sitcom with its cast of characters!

[@IvyRoad]

Yes, we need to see other gorgeously imperfect women to know it’s possible to be both. And the way to stay gorgeous is to be fabulous and unapologetically ourselves. Nobody looks older than someone trying desperately to hide it. Jo gives me permission to be gorgeous!

[@hsoderberg6505]

Me too!

[@Mariakayc]

I was brought here from Kimberly / Pretty over 50 and you’ve inspired me by your candor and enthusiasm! I’m absolutely a fan and will continue to binge away!

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

Thankyou xxxx

[@linatziamihas402]

Another new subscriber from the US coming from Pretty Over Fifty. I just had to check out your channel and now I’m binge watching. Love your upbeat beautiful personality, and I’m thrilled you take us out shopping with you…London has always been on my bucket list. xoxoxo

[@ketherwhale6126]

Wow! Loads of content always interesting. You move like someone in their 20!s! Your energy is through the roof! ! You really love life & it shows. Myrtle is such a little explorer. Great vlog. 👍💋

[@beachrose88]

I love dresses. Of course, growing up in 50s us girls always wore dresses and skirts. I still live to mostly wear dresses and skirts. Remember how capris were also called pedal pushers (because great for bicycle riding).

[@smd2702]

When Myrtle closed her eyes to get her t shirt on my heart ♥️ melted… love your honesty Jo , Sunday morning perfect 🤩

[@elisabethdavis9282]

Such a little sweet heart 💕

[@alisoncamp382]

I love the Myrtle music and also seeing her in Matilda's favourite stream. Happy Sunday Jo xx

[@donnamckendry221]

The best side of you is your delight in the world as you go about your life - that’s what makes you so beautiful ! It’s refreshingly inspirational .

[@christinalovesvintage3079]

Great video. Those dresses are absolutely gorgeous, what a lovely shop. Your new night wear is so cute on you xx

[@annbraid7989]

Kimberley put me on to you! And I live in the UK. It was a roundabout way to find you, but I'm glad I have. Lots of love from the New Forest

[@lauriehominick9987]

Love love, the dresses, especially the fact the knitted vests are so very special! I wish the USA would have such a place.💖

[@beachrose88]

I LOVE HATS !!! Beautiful music while in that shop

[@junemuskett201]

Jo you could wear that top with white trousers out its very chic. X

[@leam8223]

Loved this. I Sat in my garden this morning with a cuppa & watched. Watching your video's jo makes me feel uplifted & makes me make a little bit of time for myself with beauty and fashion. You are a wonderful person jo, a great sense of humour. You look amazing too. Great to see Dave too. Thank you 💖

[@margaretgreen2826]

Just found you , your amazing so light hearted and good for the soul 🥰 I watch Kimberley and pretty on pink and was watching the other day when she spoke about you , so had to find you . Thank you from Queensland Australia 🤗💕🌸

[@carolpetchey8673]

Enjoyed watching you as always Jo. I hope Phillipe feels better now. Enjoy your week xx

[@dianahutchings8820]

Been watching Pretty Over 50 for sometime...Kimberly is a star. And yes we are way to critical of our bodies...shame but I don't think it will ever change. I see things moving in the right direction with body image but there's a long way to go.

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

thankyou x

[@deannekozel8384]

Hi from America! Kimberly from Pretty over 50 recommended your channel. Just want to say I LOVE your Mick Jagger picture, I have been A Rolling Stones fan since I was a teenager and think Mick is still the sexiest man alive!

[@laz1946]

I was wondering what the big reveal would be. Jo, you are probably from the top 10% of great bodies of women over 60. Your legs and arms are really in great shape and you don't seems to have too much sagging anywhere else going on either. Your are agile, flexible, bouncy and fit. I suppose due mainly to your lifetime of yoga. So that my dear is the truth about your body! Great vlog! X

[@Alicia-pi1qw]

I came to your channel from Pretty over 50. She’s a doll! Much love, you inspire me as well.

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

thankyou x

[@terrifgh4778]

Thanks for being real, no need for makeup. You are beautiful. We , people over 50, need more vlogs about US.

[@gwendolyncrutcher7236]

I am 60 and a widow. You are so gorgeous and truly an inspiration to me. I just love your truthfulness and spirit.

[@Wendy-fi7yb]

Loving how Myrtle gingerly crosses the stream on the stepping stones❤️

[@comewitchmeljh7170]

We must protect Dave at all costs! 🥰

[@colinbolton993]

Have missed you lately but so happy have found you again with such beautiful clothes on. I do love silk. I wish Ihad a silk dressing gown that fitted this time of the year x

[@leilas1844]

Keep rolling Jo, from USA to You!! Lovessss 🥰💕❤️

[@shawn6271]

Hello from wine country in Northern California! Heard about your channel through Kimberly as well. You are amazing! Love your channel.

[@harbinderranauta8048]

You're lovely...glad I found you - you cheer me up and give me hope🐶🦮

[@gaylep4404]

I’m here from Pretty Over Fifty as well! Love your channel.. I just got back from a week in London- What a wonderful city! Hello from California!

[@mariethatsme3590]

Great vlog Jo, its becoming exactly that a cast of players , Dave the cabbie , Anna Webb, George pops in and out, Mutti is always the highlight ! get well soon Fillipe ! Myrt and always an ode to Tild and the music is amazing , well done !

[@sueprice4082]

Oh wow, O Pioneer, what a shop! I knit and sew and know how much work (and love) goes in to hand made garments and this looks like heaven, well done ladies! Sue xx

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

Pay them a visit and tell them...they are all so lovely x

[@denisedoran8734]

Love you Jo. I live right beside the sea and never swam as I was embarrassed about my body,and worried about the neighbours seeing me.Then I turned fifty,covid hit and I decided to swim. It’s so lovely and exhilarating,and I’ve realised other women say I’d love to swim but……Let’s just live and wear what we want to

[@debsanasi1590]

Hi from Sydney, Australia Jo! I heard on the news tonight that it was 40 in London today🥵😳!! Take care in the heat🙏🏽! And thx for being so effervescent and FABULOUS! You are an inspiration to we middle-aged international minxes😜!

[@rebeccaRLrodgers]

That’s how I found you! Kimberly, Pretty Over Fifty!!!! I ❤️ you, both!

[@jbulldogmom]

I’m here from Pretty over Fifty channel, live your channel! And I’m a bulldog mom!!!

[@sararichardson737]

Good job Jo. Power to you!

[@Ardna53]

Love the O Pioneer store!!!!!

[@lizroberts1569]

Wishing my mum was still alive, dressmaker & knitter. I won’t be buying an O Pioneer dress as too frou frou and for me, but it’s given me some good ideas…. Where’s my sewing machine

[@yesitskitti]

Kimberly from Prettyover50 sent me here. I am loving it here so far. Love this chanel middle-aged minx. You are quite classy and pretty

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

[@myriamvanbrusselt4085]

Another weekly vlog, I enjoyed so much watching. Kimberly is also a nice person and she discribed you so well. But Myrtle steels the show. Love your spirit and your enthusiasm.

[@lisab2303]

Jo another great vlog! So enjoyed it. I watch Kimberly with Pretty Over 50 as well. I must say I follow several U tubers and I found you a couple of months ago and you have become one of my favorites to watch. Just love your wonderful personality. You are so full of life and positivity. Best of all you are real!!!

[@SlaterLater]

Starting with Myrtle and closing with Dave made this the perfect vlog 🐾💕🇬🇧

[@jennybolter1102]

thanks Jo another enjoyable vlog I've just been watching London City Walks that one of many included Borough Market amazing place, for those of us who can't get to London he walks all around it no talking just walking, x

[@kimmielovesparis1]

What fun this was! You’re beautiful and a joy to watch. Adore tiny puppy. Also the lovely shop with the dresses…just amazing. Going to check out Kimberly’s channel too.

[@melissastewart2406]

Coming over from pretty over 50 too! ✨✨

[@melj4205]

Love the vlogs ending with you & Dave having a chat 🙂, a really nice addition. Best wishes to Filipe for a quick recovery

[@queens6583]

OMG Jo! That was me who told you about Kimberly Over Fifty and if you look at her vlog about traveling across the country to her new home in Aiken South Carolina, you'll see my comment under my You Tube name, Queens65. I gushed about you on her channel and told her to encourage some of her followers to come over to you so you can hit 50,000 subscribers. It worked because I already see newbies in the comments below. Yeah!!! Also, thanks for being so honest and guess what? We all get older with all that comes with it and that includes men too. You always look lovely so just live your life and don't stress.

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

Thankyouxxxxx

[@jay10533]

What a gorgeous outfit Jo. You look so gorgeous in the shorts and top. X

[@OlderWomenRock]

Spider veins , my upper legs are like a road map . I also mostly hide my less attractive bits . I try to conceal my wobbly arms , at times I don’t care xx

[@joannakuchta278]

....you look amazingggggg. Your self confidence, open nature, girly look and smile, I just love it❤️

[@thexxit]

The reason I keep coming back to your vlogs is your honesty (and Matilda and now Myrtle). You look absolutely gorgeous but still you point out your flaws - the same flaws that all of us have and are so self-concious about - and it normalizes how we all look! I love it! Another fantastic video !

[@raelenejones]

Sending best wishes to Filipe. Get well soon and look after yourself x

[@debbycar2327]

Hi Jo! I learned about your channel from watching Pretty Over 50 and I love watching your videos, we miss London (visited once and fell in love with it) and it's wonderful seeing it through your vlogging. You're clothes are amazing! xo

[@barbaradieckmann9020]

Hope you get better soon Filipe…we are in the high 30s here in Canada now too..but we have to have AC. Goes on too long. No rain either….hope your mother is great. Thanks

[@sooa4115]

[@lindahaynes3475]

Loved the Vlog again.....and because you say it as it is and fill it with interesting people ,knowledge,fun and remind me of my brother who lives in London ........

Hi Jo😊. New subscriber here from USA and really loving your channel. I have been binge watching your vlogs and feel like I’ve spent the weekend in London. Would love to visit soon☺️. Ps Kimberly from Prettyover 50 recommended your channel and I’m so glad she did💕

[@Mary-mj9mf]

Great video once again Jo. I hope Filipe recovers quickly and is not too ill. Those dresses from 0 Pioneer remind me of the dresses in the '70's which we all wore - our Liberty print dresses were a must have when I was in Drama school! xx

[@janetgorman8149]

I absolutely loved every part of this vlog! Myrtle in the park, body chat, checking out that lovely O'Pioneers shop in your area, your new print (love it).....it was all so lovely!

[@mickianderson4725]

Here on Kimberly’s suggestion! Now a subscriber!

[@ameliaclark5792]

I found your channel and have been watching for a while. When I heard Kymberley give you a shout out it was so nice:) you’ll get you silver button in no time…

[@marilynwalmsley5459]

Hi from sunny Devon , as lots of other ladies have said, I’ve come over from Kimberley at pretty over fifty. Looking forward to getting to know you 😊

[@tracybownes7612]

Been meaning to ask you for ages Jo , please please can you do a video on how you got through menopause, if you took any HRT ? How you stayed so slim ? Etc. any problems you faced or did you sail through it ? A video please would be great.

[@karensavs6148]

Don’t be so critical about yourself. You always look great. And less makeup is so much better than slapping it on too thickly. I’d love to be like you and have your confidence… Dave the cabby👍🏻

[@Myover50fashionlife]

I remember when Kimberley was a much smaller channel and I did a collab with her. Yes she asked me , me 😂😂😂. Anyway I want to collab with you sometime as a fellow uk 60 ytuber . I keep saying when I’m equal followers I’ll message you and every time I get there you leap ahead. 😞

[@triciat4477]

I found you thru Kimberly's "prettyoverfiifty" channel as well! I just love your style. I enjoyed your video and being able to see the adorable shops wirh you. if you can share where you purchased the white sleeveless top you had on, it was so cute!

[@georginahance1178]

How wonderful of you to mention “Pretty Over 50” and her channel! I started following you after she gave you a shout out!! Love your vlogs!

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

thankyou x

[@maryjohnson1393]

HI, I am a new subscriber. Kimberly from Pretty Over 50 told us all about your channel. She was right ! How delightful you are and sharing your day. I find it fascinating to see London and what it is like living in another country. Your enthusiasm is contagious and you make me feel great! I am going back now watching all your videos and look forward to seeing more. I hope Myrtle is doing great. She is adorable, too!

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

thankyou x

[@pennydavies6253]

I’m the same Jo now with make up. Concentrate on good skincare regime, mascara and lips! My skin is so much better and it makes me feel better. Love the new dress shop! Good luck girls! Thank you Jo!
