This is 60

~ MaryG

I got all the way dressed up for a very elegant Boston wedding and had a wonderful time.

My tan is real (from outdoor swimming) and my hair is its natural color. I’ve never done Botox or had any cosmetic surgery (not that I’m ruling it out). But, in the spirit of the many women sharing “This is 60” pics on social media, I decided to share a few here on my blog.

This is 60, with a fun “up do” by a local stylist who took me at the last minute when the humidity reached about 85%.

I’m lucky that the grey is pretty much just around my temples now. Embracing truly grey hair is going to be a challenge.
I was even feeling good about taking pics with much younger, gorgeous women.
I’m fully indulging my “Gilded Age” fantasies here. (Is anyone else watching that series on Max?) Now, if John Singer Sargent could just come back to life and paint my portrait, my fantasy would be complete.

  4. You look fantastic, Mary! Healthy and bold. 60 suits you well, and I’m envious of the way your hair is turning, with an evenness, and the dress is perfect!

      2. You’re so nice Stephanie. Thank you. I really wanted to be happy with how I looked that night and I was. The dress helped a lot. Good old Macy’s!
