Rocking the Silver Life

Rocking the Silver Life

In a world obsessed with the illusion of eternal youth, there’s a vibrant wave of women who are flipping the script, flaunting their wisdom, and living their best lives with a dash of silver. My name is Adelina, and I am one of these women. My brand, FlyGrannyBk, is not just a persona; it’s a movement—a salute to the unapologetic beauty of aging and the rich tapestry of experiences that come with it. In case you are new around here, I want to take a moment to walk you through the things I value.

The Transition to Gray Hair: A Declaration of Authenticity

The choice to embrace your natural silver strands is nothing short of revolutionary. It’s like telling the world, “I am comfortable in my own skin, and I’m here to slay.” For many, this decision is a pivotal moment of self-love and empowerment.

I believe in owning every silver thread as a badge of honor and experience. Think of it as leveling up. It’s not just aging; it’s upgrading to a crown. And honey, it’s time to wear that crown like the queen you are! You can learn more about my transition by following me on the Gram @flygrannybk. 

Vibrant Living and Dating in Your Glorious Years

Who said adventure has an expiration date? Whether you’re a foodie, a fashionista, or just someone looking to soak in the joys of life, there’s a whole world waiting for you.

Foodie Adventures for the Silver Soul

The silver years are a perfect time to explore culinary wonders. With an appreciation for finer details and the patience to savor each moment, dining becomes more than just eating; it becomes an experience. Let’s be real: wine gets better with age, and so do we! It’s time to pair our seasoned selves with some exquisite flavors.

Fashion Forward After Fifty

Fashion and beauty over 50 is not about fading into the background; it’s about making bold statements. Style influencer, Tennille Murphy says, “The confidence that comes with age is a beautiful thing. More than ever, I am decisive and stand by my choices, I know what I like and don’t like, I am able to set healthy boundaries, I am overall happier and more positive AND I am comfortable in my own skin. That my darlings, is the gift of aging!”

There are no rules to fashion when you’ve lived enough to know what suits you best—it’s all about confidence, and silver ladies have that in spades. Check out some of my favorite shoes HERE. Seriously, they are a must have of this season!

Love and Dating: Age is Just a Number

The heart doesn’t grow old; it only grows wiser. Dating in your silver years can be an exciting exploration of compatibility, companionship, and shared experiences. I met my husband at 59 years old and I couldn’t be happier. There is something extra special about meeting the love of your life at a more mature age. You know your worth and your values and won’t compromise either of them. It becomes an amazing opportunity to see the world through a different lens. 

There is the joy of weaving your life with someone who reflects your deep understanding of life’s twists and turns. Having both navigated through storms and basked in sunlit days, you discover a profound connection that’s built on recognizing each other’s struggles and victories. The stories you’ve lived and the wisdom you’ve exchanged lay the foundation of a relationship that’s rich, profound, and utterly rewarding, turning every moment you share into an adventure. To learn more about my love story, check out THIS post on Instagram.

I always say that love is possible at any age. So, don’t give up! Keep believing and keep praying, but also be proactive and put yourself out there. There are so many ways to meet people, but none of them include sitting on the couch feeling sorry for yourself. You gotta put in the work!

A Beacon of Hope for Women Everywhere

Each wrinkle has its story, and gray hair is just the sparkle. Never shy away from being your most authentic self. This isn’t just about hair or fashion; it’s a mantra for life itself. It’s a call to women everywhere to own their stories, their wisdom, and their beauty, in every hue and shade.

By sharing these perspectives and voices, we’re not just talking about aging; we’re redefining it. Aging isn’t something to be feared or hidden away; it’s to be celebrated, with every silver strand waving like a flag of freedom and every laugh line painting the map of a life well-lived.

In the words of poet Maya Angelou, “We don’t just survive; we thrive… and we do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.” The Silver Life is your canvas, and you, my dear, are the masterpiece.

Welcome to the Silver Life—the best is yet to come!

Curly in the summer, straight in the winter…I like change and the versatility of switching back and forth. So I’ll be going back to straight for the cooler weather in a few days. I’ll see how it goes and how long it lasts when I go to the gym,but for now I’m welcoming the change🍁🍁Plus it’s hard to wear hats with this puffy hair!!😂

Do you switch it up with the changing of the seasons?

Last year around this time…
Sedona never gets old — those red rocks hit different every single time! 🌄 Last year’s Pink Jeep adventure was all thrills, dust, and wind-blown gray hair giving main character energy. If you know, you know… Sedona just does something to your soul. 

#SedonaVibes #PinkJeepTours #GrayHairDontCare #FlyGrannyAdventures #SilverSisterOnTheMove #RedRockMagic #TravelOver50 #AgelessAdventures

Have you experienced Sedona?
Okay, I admit it — this AI thing is getting out of hand! I was just playing around and somehow it turned into a full-blown time travel adventure with me and Dave. One minute we’re in the roaring ’20s, the next we’re grooving through the ’60s and rocking the ’80s. I can’t decide if it’s hilarious, creepy, or kind of amazing — maybe all three!

I know I said I wasn’t going to get sucked into this AI craze, but honestly… it’s too entertaining not to. It’s wild to see what technology can do — and a little reminder that no matter the decade, some things (and some people 😉) never go out of style.
Are you working with AI these days?

Which era do you like best for us?

The first day at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta was a total bust. The weather was gorgeous, but the wind had other plans—too strong for the balloons to fly. Six hours on the road, anticipation sky-high, and not a single balloon lifted. We were told this could happen… but still, disappointment hit hard.(Check out my other Albuquerque video)

But we weren’t leaving defeated. We’ve wanted to see this for years—it’s been on our bucket list forever. So, we got up the next morning, determined. And this time, the sky rewarded us. (Thanks so much for the parking pass @deebookattic !!)
The glow, the colors, the sound of burners firing against the sunrise—it was everything we dreamed it would be and more.

Life’s like that sometimes. The first try doesn’t always lift off. The timing feels off. The wind says no. But if you stay patient, show up again, and give it one more chance… the beauty reveals itself. We’re so glad we came back the next day! They say it’s darkest before dawn, and your blessings are sometimes right on the other side of adversity, so be patient and don’t give up!!!

Have you gone to the Balloon Fiesta? Would you like to go? Let me know your thoughts!

It was supposed to be a sky full of color, but the winds had other plans. Still, the day was gorgeous—warm, golden, and far too nice to complain about. As someone who believes 60 degrees is winter, I wasn’t mad at the sunshine one bit. We may not have seen the big balloon show we came for, but there’s something to be said for slowing down, chatting with good people, and enjoying the moment you’re in.

Tomorrow, we’ll try again—because that’s what we do. Sometimes life gives you wind instead of lift, but you show up anyway, lipstick on, coffee in hand, ready for another round. The balloons can wait; the joy’s in the journey.

We met when we both were 60…
Things to think about when you’re looking for love over 50:

* That perfect Prince in shining armor didn’t show up yet, so it might be time to refresh your
dating checklist. I’m not saying settle for anyone, but reassess your requirements. As we age, it might be something like wanting someone in good health, and pretty fit like you. Be flexible about things that were dealbreakers before.

 * You get what you get- there’s no changing him or changing you after all these years.
Personalities are pretty much set. 
Allow the other person their being-ness.
We all come from different upbringings and backgrounds. Respect , learn, and let them be.

* Be prepared to weather the storms and ups and downs of another persons’ personality and decide whether or not you can deal with it.

Finally…my favorite quote about love:

“Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction” 
a quote from French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

For us, this rings true because Christ is the center of our relationship. Aligning on faith and politics ensures a smoother ride than if you’re diametrically opposed on values. Just saying.

So open your heart and keep hope alive!

Love is possible over 40,50,60 and beyond!
