Today I Am A Ma'am: And Other Musings On Life, Beauty, And Growing Older - Plot & Excerpts
Face It Millie, a friend of many years, told me about a beauty trick used by legendary silent screen star Dolores del Rio. Her advice was simple: Never open your mouth wide when you’re laughing. To show mirth, part your lips slightly, toss your head back in a posture of great gaiety, and let the laughter drift from your throat. Make no lateral movement with your mouth that might result in laugh lines. What women won’t do to look young! I practiced the technique a few times with Millie, but it cracked us up so much that our lines were multiplying like crazy. Sorry, Dolores! Being Fabulous I get suspicious when I hear that phrase “fabulous at fifty.” What does it mean? Don’t we all get it by now that it means looking fabulous? That if you don’t look fabulous, you can’t be fabulous? How about being fabulous as human beings? Having fabulous awareness, manners, generosity? How about having a fabulous sense of humor, a capacity to love and laugh, interest in others?
