Need some inspiration? There’s a great article at The Huffington Post with pictures of 6 of the world’s most beautiful women. Take a look and see if you would agree with their choices and let us know.
We’d like to add Diane Lane. She’s such a natural and always looks so happy and peaceful.
Diane Lane - a natural beauty
Diahann Carroll is another favorite. She’s classy and glamorous. Loved her in the TV show “Julia” in the 60′s and on “Dynasty” in the 80′s.
The second most important thing to think about when buying earrings is:
Bone Structure
Do you have:
Fine Bone structure – fine earrings
Small, fine bone structure? (Meryl Streep/Sharon Stone)Choose earrings that are thin, fine, flat and delicate. Imagine someone with fine bone structure like Sharon Stone in chunky wooden hoops. They would overpower her gentle beauty.
medium boned - medium size and weight earring
Medium Bone structure? (Terri Hatcher, Madonna. Liz Hurley)Opt for medium weight and thickness.
heavy bone structure- heavy earrings
Heavy Bone Structure? (Oprah, Donatella Versace) You can carry off heavy, chunky earrings.

Last nights Golden Globe Awards was an eye popping evening of one jaw dropping dress after another! We Glam Gals are SO glad that Hollywood has kept the Glam up. Here are our reviews of what went mostly right, with only few blips on the red carpet!
The main theme seemed to be to wear a neutral gown, off white, cream, or beige, which, in fact, can be a bit dreary on most women over 40. But on an up note, the strapless look seemed to finally moving on to necklines that are a bit more interesting.
Here are a few of the Age-mazing and over 40 celebrities that showed up:
Demi Moore looked stunning in her beige gown with rocker studded criss cross straps. That she can wear vertical lines like that and still look trim is a miracle. We would heed most to beware and , “don’t try this at home.” Also, notice the double cuff bracelets. This is a very ‘hip’ trend, that we like, but again, needs to be worn with just earrings.
Meryl Streep in the past has disappointed, however last night she was spot on, looking elegant and better than ever. According to www.wowowow.com, this classy black number, was a last minute purchase at Saks! Notice, the subtle jewelry. Just earrings, light make up and a coordinating sheer shawl. PERFECTION!!!
Sandra Bullock sure looked gorgeous, in her peachy cream frock, that had just the right combination of femininity and sophistication! We think she takes the cake for the best dressed!
Marisa Tomei really went out on a limb with this dress. Although it does show her sense of creative style, we feel it was a little too much of a casual, pirate look for an evening as elegant as this one! (Don’t you think her hair would have looked better down with her outfit too?)
However, Kristin Scott Thomas looks absolutely alluring, and age appropriate with her taupe gown and black accessories. The dress is still sexy, even though it has a high neck. Her back-swept sleek hair matches perfectly with the simple and classic lines of the dress. The pin draws your eye up to her lovely smile! You see her, not the outfit!
We’re always on the lookout for great little beauty tips to keep you looking Fabulous after 40. So, when when we were at the MORE Magazine Reinvention Convention and we spotted Tim Quinn, the renowned make-up artist who heads up the Giorgio Armani Beauty team, we rushed over and had a chat.
Tim has worked with celebs like Glenn Close, Helen Mirren, Sarah Jessica Parker, Minnie Driver, Kim Cattrall, and Barbara Walters. Here are Tim’s Top 3 Tips to Help you Look Age-mazing!
Jojami and I have both used products from the Armani beauty line and like everything else Armani does these are luxurious, quality products.
Richard Blackwell, the style guru famous for inventing Hollywood’s Worst Dressed list has died at 86. There’s sure to be at least a handful of celebrities who won’t be mourning his passing.
Blackwell was biting and often downright cruel with his remarks about what the stars were wearing. Still, at the same time, he was usually so spot on, you couldn’t help but end up having a good giggle!
I (Deb) met him on several occasions when he was a regular on a TV show I was producing back in the 90’s, and found that surprisingly, he was quite a nice guy.
Here’s a Wowowow photo essay with some of his most famous critiques. Remember any of these zingers?
We’re starting a regular feature about the world’s most Age-mazing™ women…. 40 +women who look stylish, vibrant and sexy – AMAZING FOR THEIR AGE.
This week we nominate Madonna. Although we’ve always enjoyed her music we’ve never been much of a fan of hers personally.
No doubt, she’s a smart and a savy businesswoman, but she has always seemed like a hypocrite; publishing a porn book and necking with Britanny Spears, and then writing sweet little children’s books and complaining to the world that her daughter’s jeans are too tight.
But, recently something happened that has made us like her a little bit more.
“Madge” has come out and said that she has had a facelift. Wow, is that refreshing to hear! It gets so tiring reading about stars who insist that cosmetic surgery, or even botox, is something they would personally never do, (usually because they ” hate needles”), yet they’ve obviously done something!
Madonna never went around spouting off that she’d never undergo cosmetic surgery. And when she did, she didn’t have to admit it to the world. It’s really no one’s business and she could have told asked anyone who asked, just that. Yet, she has freely admitted to having a facelift and added that she is quite pleased with the result. That took guts.
And, we must say she looks fantastic! She’s worked hard on keeping her body keeping super fit, but there’s really no exercises you can do to keep your face as toned too. Her facelift was subtle, and soft, and didn’t make her suddenly look like someone else. She had a good surgeon! For her cosmetic surgery was the right choice.
Madonna’s news is also a relief for women out there who honestly feel that cosmetic surgery is just not for them. Now, every time you look in the mirror you can rest a little easier and feel great knowing that Madonna has had a little help and you’re not aging so badly after all.
