Ladies!!! Put the fan away and sit down…No Sis, you are not having hot flashes!! You are getting a glimpse of our counterparts: Behold The Silver Men.
So, move over Silver Sisters and make way for these Silver Brothers to stand alongside us in the burgeoning Positive Aging movement as we light the path in the Silver Spotlight together. Gray haired salt and pepper men, celebrities, and high powered business men alike have long been deemed sexy and mature merely getting better with age while traipsing around with much younger arm candy. Silver Sisters have finally caught up, owning their glorious tresses and making a big splash on social media. And while the world is finally taking notice that aging and gray hair can indeed be beautiful, this is a new breed of silver haired foxes; men confident in style and swagger for the whole world to see. They are kicking it up a notch or two.
“The clinical research tells us that by the age of 50, most men will develop grey hair (Genetics Home Reference, 2017). Your hair color is determined by a pigment called melanin; a substance that hair follicles produce. Hair follicles are dynamic structures that reside in the dermal layer of your skin and made up of 20 unique cells. As you age, these follicles produce less melanin, thereby reducing color pigmentation. Some men will start to notice grey hair atop their head in their 20’s. More will spot whitish patches in their 30’s. And by the time you are 40, you will likely see (some) salt and pepper set in”. (From guycounseling.com)
Either that, or they start going bald. Not that baldness is a bad thing, but with the popularity of beards today, it adds a nice counterbalance to the baldness while showcasing their silver tinsel.
These brothers have defined their individual style, and not only are they looking Fly, but they are notably health conscious and fit.
So, I hereby give you permission to behold God’s magnificent creations without guilt!
Looking is free!
Whether bald or bearded, dread locked or tatted, each Silver Brother depicted here is making his unique silver splash in a big way:
Some are professional models like @orlandosilverfox who is as close to perfection as one can get. The word “Adonis” comes to mind with his chiseled body and face to match. (He also gives me a Prince vibe in some photos)(photo credit: Gunnar Gabrielsen)
@mrericcedeno, a silver model, sports gorgeous silver locs along with that enviable flawless skin AND smile.
I have been following @city.lord as he makes his way around colorful spots in Germany to capture great vibrant pics.
@alisudani just looks great with that silver crown and beard, and sports a modern twist to his classic style.
@franky_silverman is a model who wears a longer beard and sports rugged manliness with street style cool, and I am not mad at all those tatts!
@mrmoodydresser has impeccable swag and style as he bounces effortlessly between cool dapper looks and ultra-chic street style.
@biggrip69 has a unique and glorious snow white beard, keeps fit, and is a Deputy Sheriff…I feel safer already!!
@aldgoldie is a model who can sport clean classic handsome looks as well as rough and rugged ones
@tonsorialist_mrdexx is a NYC based Grand Master Barber and you can tell by his beard game and debonaire air. (Yeah, I had to look up “tonsorialist” too!)
@therealwinstonwarrior – apparently bald heads and beards are a thing, and Mr. Winston: multi-talented musician, artist, and more, knows how to work it all very well…
Just like Silver Sisters ditching the dye, men can put away their boxed dye and be confident that the gray doesn’t make them look old, they look Grayt!
It is truly all about mindset, attitude, self-awareness, and style. It can make all the difference between old and bold.
So go ahead and scoot over Silver Queen, and let that Silver King take his rightful place on the throne.
I know you will give your Silver Brothers a follow…
Like Silver Sisters, there are so many Silver Brothers to choose from it was hard to select them so I will most likely feature more Silver Brother in upcoming posts.
What do you think…do you want more???

Back when I was living in Brooklyn a few years ago, I found myself in an unexpected situation that left me reflecting on the perceptions of age and vitality. As I strolled down the street behind a group of high school students, I couldn't help but notice their slower...
#tbt Exactly 3 years ago. In the midst of my social media life-getting used to being in front of the camera-out front and center.
For most of my life, I played it safe behind the scenes… kept myself small, let other people define me, fit me neatly into whatever box was handed to me. From the outside, it probably didn’t look that way—but inside, it was sitting there, growing louder every year. Then somewhere along the way, I stepped out. This space—this platform—pulled me out of hiding and pushed me to finally show up as myself. No box. No shrinking. Just me… and I’m not going back.
Today, I move differently. If I feel like posting fashion—I will. If I want to talk about marriage—I will. Brand campaigns? Absolutely… when it aligns. And if I don’t feel like it? I simply won’t. That’s the freedom that comes with finally knowing who you are and not needing permission to be her. As Philippians reminds us: “I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content.” (Philippians 4:11) And that’s exactly where I am in this season at 69—content, grounded, and deeply blessed.

My mini schnauzer loses his mind over salad… watch the switch It’s the sound for him. Not steak… not chicken… a SALAD bag. The minute I open it, here he comes like he pays bills in this house. And for a second, he’ll act like he was raised right… waiting patiently, taking it nice and gentle like a gentleman. And then? Something snaps. Suddenly it’s survival of the fittest over romaine lettuce. I have to remind him—sir… this is not your last meal. Gather yourself. 😭🐾�Anyone else got a dog that forgets their manners the moment food is involved?

When the fabulous Nancy @travelladyshops said she was coming to AZ, I was so excited! We’ve been following each other for years now, and I always enjoy her style and travel posts, so meeting her in real life was a joy! I’m in Prescott Valley, and there aren’t so many influencers out here that I know of, so I really looked forward to enjoying some time in Scottsdale. We packed a lot into one day from a great breakfast, then going to the McDowell Sonoran Desert area to check out the cactus… You gotta look at some cactus when you’re here in the Arizona desert! Then we had lunch @_oliveandivy and after that cocktails @platform18 @centurygrandphx We packed a lot into one day, but that’s how we do! The only thing we didn’t do was… Shop😂😂😂 but I’m sure she’ll fit it in.! Had a great time Nancy… until next time😘😘😘

I was like that. Don’t you remember? Raising y’all. Working. Trying my best!
thought I’d jump on this 90s trend for a throwback Thursday. Still hard to believe the 90s were over 30 years ago😳😲 But here we are, still standing, and in my case, still kneeling🙏🏽. Happy memories y’all.

These are some of the lyrics from the Temptations song “Ball of Confusion” 1970, and it seemsthings haven’t changed much , have they?
“The sale of pills are at an all time high. Young folks walking round with their heads in the sky. The cities ablaze in the summer time. And oh, the beat goes on. Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul. Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon. Politicians say more taxes will solve everything. And the band played on. So, round and around and around we go. Where the world’s headed, nobody knows. Oh, great GoogaMooga, can’t you hear me talking to you. Just a ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that’s what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey.”
I think everyone will agree that the world is crazy. Always has been.
Thank God for the peace that comes in knowing Jesus🙏🏽

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.”
