  • Lyn Slater is not your average professor - she’s also an accidental icon. When the 65-year-old launched her fashion blog, her goal was to create a space where women of all ages could have an intelligent conversation about fashion. Now, her Instagram account has over 600,000 followers.

    I had her as my graduate professor this past semester. She is AMAZING!! Not only is her style on point all the time, but she's incredibly smart and witty! I am so honored to have been in her class and learn under her wing. Age is limitless, as she would lecture to the class!!

    This isn’t just clothes, this woman is creating art. She’s beautiful, creative, and understands photography and style incredibly well. I immediately followed her after this video!

    Great. I’m just accepting my age. I’m 63, will be 64 this year. I don’t mind getting older as much as the fear of becoming irrelevant. Thank you for being who you are. You give me permission to be me!!

    You're fantastic! I love that ur a "funky academic" . I've been told that I "have my own style" which means I dress in a way that "they" consider weird and I like very much LOL. I'll be 60 in a few days and am VERY happy to have found a kindred spirit.

    This really makes me feel good about myself and aging. I want to choose how I feel about myself.

    Age is just a number. It’s an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter!

    Clearly, she’s the exception. She’s not the average senior.

    Lyn has brought to life every feeling & dream I have about fashion & aging. We all want to live a long time but not grow old. How silly is that.? Society still holds women to impossible standards. Be sexy, alluring, interesting in spite of losing the assets of youthful health; firm bodies, smooth skin, great hair, strong bones & good eye site. Lyn shows us how to stay in the game of being attractive, wearing clothes that suit the body we've grown into & still looking & moving with vitality. The fashion looks she has brought to life say I am chic, still looking fine & VERY much ALIVE & still living my life on purpose while loving every minute of being a woman.
