Old School Love

    This post has been building for a while now. Over breakfast food at 4a.m. with both sexes there have been debates about the most beautiful old chick. I definitely adore the grace a beautiful woman can age. I think it started with Claire Huxtable. I'm not the only one. So, when ladies are in the presence I bring it up, kinda as a reminder that if they don't stay on their tasks age could get the best of them. But if it doesn't a well maintained lady can ride shotgun till the late 70's!
    Compiling this non-ultimate 15 over 40 was lots of fun. I advise anyone who reads this to check google images, flickr, getty for more images and some vintage looks. Especially my lady S. Loren... to this day I think she holds herself with the same air that will have any man weak.
        Feel free to comment on anyone that would fit this list.
        Order is chronologically ascending.

      I agree with you. There are some absolutely fabulous women over 40. As the biggest Phylicia Rashad fan I know, she definitely tops my list but some of the women on your list are stunning. Talk about fabulous genes.
