- 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!!
And that’s exactly how she would dress. Her style was very simple but very sleek with a hint of dimensional pieces. Two main accessories that complimented the outfits were her big hoop earrings and trendy glasses. She ALWAYS paired the two with her outfit. Every Thursday, I looked forward to her outfits. I, myself have a passion for style and mixing pieces. She gives inspiration to not just people of older age but to youth individuals as well. If you truly enjoy expressing yourself through clothes, then you should, regardless of age! As I like to say, “you gotta own who you are” ❤️
What class is this and where?! ;)
Wow..that's Awsome
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!
My retinas are BURNING UP with how fabulous she looks!🔥💖😍
Genie Meryl Streep in real life. 😅

Hello dear how are you doing
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!!
Egypt Ra you look beautiful!!
The issue with age is health. Look after yourself. Once people hit 80 then health seems to deteriorate. Stay active, walk, laugh. My Mum is 87 and has been active her whole life but the body quite simply wears out.
May wow! Thank you!!
Hello dear how are you doing
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.
Respect for her. My Great-Grandmother stayed on slay for the majority of my life. All the way until the end of her life. I'm grateful bcuz it set the example that I can enjoy fashion at ANY age.
Hello dear how are you doing
Oh I still have a chance I'm 70 and 6 foot I'm modeling lol to myself I just love her u go baby
Age is just a number. It’s an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter!
"Age is just a number"... sadly/unfortunately not.
@@cameliap1146 Don’t let a number define you!
This really makes me feel good about myself and aging. I want to choose how I feel about myself.
I follow her on the Gram and Professor Slater is fly AF.
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.
OMG!!!!! I’m 57, and this woman is rocking it, unbelievable smh I just love her, omg, I love fashion too, she just encouraged me , to induce that swag, just beautiful, her spirit and fashion 😍😍😍
Omg what an inspiration 🔥
Beyond fabulous! Her style is much more than her clothes... It's in her core & knowing who she is! That is ageless and fab'tabulous wisdom Ms Slater!!! Your interns are lucky to share & learn from y our "glee in being me!"
You like exaggerating, right ?
LOVE this! I just turned 68 and I love life!
That Accidental Icon is absolutely as good as it gets! Love the piece on her. She is wonderful.
Clearly, she’s the exception. She’s not the average senior.
Not a Senior. She's a Boomer.
I watch every Lynn Slater feature I can find. She is a wonderful inspiration for women of a certain age. Love her. Great film.
Her eyes. In them I see nothing but an unbreakable will to live her life to its fullest.
More power to you! I LOVE this. How wonderful for mature women to have such a terrific role model. Keep these video coming.
Love it! She is enjoying life with style.
Love her message and her sweet personality!!! Can’t wait to meet her one day and hopefully work together! 🌪♠️🖤💋
I think she is fabulous!!!!! When I receive my AARP card 10 years ago you didn't bother me at much now turning the next chapter in two weeks the big gold I called it LOL seem like it's really bothering me even though I'm not Social Security age yet! Lol... seeing her commercial gave me super energy because at one time I used to model in my younger years. So this validates that ages just a number let your mind be young and let your heart follow.
60 and still feel beautiful, thank for showing your beauty 😉
60 is young. I'm 71 and told I look late-50s. Have the same attitude as she. Pain and meds-free, and feel better than in my 40s.
She’s fabulous!🌼🌸
People are accepting that individuals should do what they want no matter the age, gender, religious beliefs, etc. For example at our church last Sunday, we could observe a male choir member wearing a long, textured skirt, and another male after dancing could be see using a beautiful hand fan to cool himself. This creative expression is the new life we have on this Earth.
Woman of substance ...rare gem ❤
I’m in love with her style, personality and confidence!!! Wow 😍😍😍 She is a true artist of style!
Love your look! What a powerhouse and a wonderful message to women of all ages.
Love her minimalist style.
Age is only a number.
I turned "60" four month's ago and having a real hard time accepting this age!! Especially when they show nothing but 20-30 year old girls on commercials and not to mention "men" would rather be with them than with one my age!!
@Goody two shoes You're only 45 and feeling the "effects of aging" already? Damn. This definitely lets me know genetics factor into it, because 45 is way too early to be talking like that. At least in my family. Then again, we are melanated, so that figures into it too. Justin Eats is right by the way. It's in your mind. If you think "now's about the time I should be getting old" then you will.
@@nancymoreno9955 : nothing new. When you were 20...30 years old how was it ? I dare bet you aren't thinking of those over 60 years either. C'est la vie ! Be happy with what you have.
So happy with how this turned out! Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this.
You Go Girl ! You obviously have long "Telomeres." Stay in good health dear lady. CMJ Canada
She just happens to have fabulous fashion sense which makes one stand out
it's amazing that she still looks proper for a woman at her age no matter how crazy the style she takes👍 Usually gramma fashion ends up to a disaster
I’m so sick of the ageism in fashion. Most women can’t relate to a prepubescent model. Fashion magazines have died because they don’t speak to us anymore. We don’t buy the image that you are only beautiful if you are young, tiny, and bored.
ALL I'M GOING TO SAY IS YOU GO...What a amazing video and she one glorious woman
Love her style! She's gorgeous! Such an inspiration.
Age is just a number.You are fearfully and wonderfully made.
Not a beige anorak, Nora batty tights or granny sandal in sight! Hallelujah!!- this is my inspiration right there.💞
I follow her in IG. She’s a breath of fresh air to the homogeneous and monotonous environment of fashion igers. She’s more than fashion. She speaks for the majority who’s not favorably represented.
You are AWESOME! GORGEOUS! FABULOUS!, I'm totally inspired by your confidence,...I think it's important to feel good & be who you are & feel happy, no matter the age & look classy! Beautiful👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm just not into fashion. I still wear the same clothes I wore 25 years ago, which consists of jeans and a pretty camp shirt. Everything I have is still like new. Saved tons of money.
Been following & LOVING her for a while now!
Love this, she indeed is an inspiration!
What fabulousness! Instant follower here 🙏 😍
She is beautiful, fashionable and intelligent. Age made it all better. COOL!!!
I'd really love to see the interiors of her home now!!
Pausing the video so I can subscribe to her!
Love the oh so glamorous & chic - Lyn Slater ... 👓💄👜
There's way more important things than fashion as she describes.
"OOO BISH!" was my instant reaction when I saw the thumbnail 😍
I think she is fantastic. I love her attitude on life. I hope that I get to live to be her age and have a wonderful outlook on life as she does.
Me encanta no se que dice pero me encantaaaa!!!

Fantastic take on fashion!
She looks wayyyyyy older huh
Yes I agree. And I don't know why but she bugs the hell out of me.
she sure does
I like her fashion but she looks older then 65.
geo cape It takes a certain amount of energy, and mental clarity to do what she does, that’s what’s important....
Diane R But can you do what she does??? What are your accomplishments????
Really you had to go there ...wonder how your momma looks or your nana
She's 65 she looks old my sister in law looks way younger and she's 65!
geo cape I don’t think this is about age! It’s about style, stylish clothing & being the best you can be!
Well let me get out of my potatoe sack ..lol thank you for the confidence
Awesome!
Awesome.
Where can you get all those fab earrings? I like clips and pierced..hope you answer..i am older than you and always want to look nice and have fun with good clothes on a budget but would rather have a few
nice items than a lot of cheapies..the French women say less is more that's me! New subscriber
Love this!✌
Wow so cool:)
My gawd, she's fabulous.💕
Just love it
I love this woman. You look fantastic.
Lyn Slater, you're my inspiration. #badass
wow... goals
I love her and Maye Musk (Elon Musk's mom) another 70 year old model who is just fantastic!!!!! Great thing is these women are both very slim and in great shape for their ages, which helps them to be able to wear simple, chic and stylish outfits and look great in them!
Fashion should be for everyone
This Woman is exciting..... Busting stereotypes... I Love that!
She is great. :-) Love her way of approaching life and living it authenticlly. Very wonderful example and inspiration.
One funny fact is, that she reminds me of "Mr. Bean". Doesn`t her face look just like Rowan Atkinson? She could be his mum. :-D :-) This should be seen as a compliment, not an insult. :-D I find it stunning and curious on how some people look alike as if they were related. Great fun ....... :-D
Too cute ! Nice
Get it girl!
So fkn fab!!! I hope I’m as fab as her when I reach that age!! Way to go!!
Love her!
Her style is so fly 😍😍😍
Yay! Fellow Ram!
Ok...SHE. IS. AWESOME!!!
Very CHIC!!
Love her in pink
