Let’s be honest Aging sucks! You look fab and you dress with fun and style Keep it up regardless of the number associated with your age I am 68 still working full time and love fashion and doing the best I can to look good
Yes,it does, 68 here. Crikey.
Love all the outfits. You’re looking very toned & great legs. Wonderful!
Hello Suzi! You're looking lovely as always. I think aging is a privilege. Especially if you're healthy. I feel I've earned every wrinkle, gray hair and extra pound and am doing my best to age gracefully. I'm 67, eat well, exercise, and try to make the best of every day. Each day that we're still here is a gift.
Ahh, Suzi.....shorts. I will continue to wear my cut off levi shorts until I am gone from this World, lol.....turning 69 tomorrow. Loved the outfits!Have a great week. Beth xx
Not sure about the shorts, sorry, but if you like the look then thats all that matters really
@@elspeththompson2973 I do, thank you..
I feel the same way, Beth!! Jeans are my comfy go-to clothes, I do dress fashionable to the point I bought a leather skirt. When i tried it on to show, hubby, he said, "That's a little short, isn't it?" 😅 👖❤
Loved all your outfits you looked so put together and fashionable cute little place you were nice vlog nice to see you enjoying a holiday ❤🎉
Yes, go shopping....lol..... Do look forward to seeing you every Sunday, you are such a joy x
Thank you so much Suzanne, hope you have a great week xx
I think you look very nice and youthful. Your legs looks like a model, not at all old so keep wearing shorts.❤
It is always very uplifting to see what you are up to.
We have three dogs and I admire you for taking so good care of Jack. Last October our oldest dog Doris fourteen years left us and I miss her.
Thank you so much for everything you share!
Thank you so much lovely! So kind! xx
I think we all get a bit fed up sometimes. Ageing is inevitable but some days I’m ok with it whereas other days I feel exhausted. Mostly I carry on regardless. Women like yourself and Jo are such a tonic living life to the full and to hell with what anyone else thinks 🤗 I enjoy your chats and trips away it’s like catching up with a good friend xx
I love both of the shorts outfits! And the black and white pants with the cap-sleeve t. We are the same age (well, I'm a year older, but who's counting) and I must get over my disinclination to show flesh that doesn't look 40. I mean, my face and neck are on display - why do I think people would be surprised by the skin on my upper arms?! Do I think if I conceal the bits of me that are newly crepey, no one will know that I'm not 40?! Then, as soon as I get over the horror over a newly old part of my body, another bit is horrifying me, and I realize that past me actually looked fine!
When I look at you, I think you look fab! You look gorgeous, interesting, alive, iconoclastic, vital, creative, and it bears saying again: gorgeous! Utterly gorgeous!
Hi lovely, thank you for such a great comment! I totally get that, we need to try and embrace ourselves fully (not always easy!). Sending much love, hope you have a good week xx
@@AlternativeAgeing I'm learning how to be fabulous ;0) like you ❤
What a great comment! Perfectly said! 🇨🇦👏🇨🇦
@@peggy-ann1961 Thanks fellow Canuck! ☮
I love your outfits! ❤ THE CRISP WHITE! YOU CAN'T LET OTHER PEOPLE BOTHER YOU, YOU LOOK AWESOME. I WANT SOME OF THOSE BRAS❤
Loving the outfits and top tips 👌🏻 you looked gorgeous in them all and I especially liked the baggy pale blue trousers and white shirt combo 👌🏻❤️
Thank you lovely! xx
I actually like those super baggy light blue elastic pants with the river island shirt 😊
I love your clothes. I don't think the old school rules re age appropriate dress apply any longer. I remembef when I first discovered you, you asked why young people should have all the fun. I agree with that. Please keep it up.
Thank you so much lovely! xx
Don't forget to take your passport when you get the train, over 65s get half price fares! We used to go first class when we went to Lisbon from our home in Tavira 😊 xx
Such a great tip!
Living in the States I wear shorts a lot. Keep wearing yours Suzi. Being invisible surely bites, happens to me as I get old & older. We’ve just got to keep plodding along. Luv all ur outfits. Enjoy the heat😊
You look fabulous in the whatever you wear!! Love the floaty crocheted trousers!
Thank you so much Nicolle! xx
Hi Suzi, just adore those black and white pants, you look fabulous , love 😍
All of your outfits were superb. Don't worry about the blue bag pants (bbb's) - ignore the lying mirror. You look so modern and confident. Remember, one assumes there is a svelt young body within. I adore the vanilla pants and would love that arty white shirt with them. You make great choices - own it!
Thank you so much Ann. Hope you have a great week xx
Love your outfit Suzi. Looks fabulous!🥳😘😊
Great vlog! All of your outfits were so nice! I especially loved the cream on cream that you traveled in. And you look GREAT in shorts! Keep on keeping on! Glad you had a nice holiday!
Thank you Helen! xx
I absolutely loved the beige and cream outfit - so stylish x
Thank you Jan! xx
Love the different lengths of the white shirt!
You look SO fabulous in shorts! And that blue top from Australia is one of my favourites of your tops. A beautiful combination of prints 💙
You look lovely Suzi
Thank you so much Mary xx
Love the outfits Suzy. The weather does look beautiful there. Thanks for sharing
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed xx
Lovely vlog, you looked like you were having fun. I think you looked wonderful in all your outfits.
just to say love all the outfits you look great in everything you wear enjoy your holiday
Oh dear.watching you tonight has been bad for my bank account!l ve just ordered the trousers and think lm going to get the bag as well!
Hi Kathy! It's good to treat yourself! Hope you love them xx
You’re just so lovely - you make me smile so much ❤
Oh Julie, thank you so much, that is so lovely to hear xx
You are adorable. Love your style. You’re a good role model for us older gals. (I miss Jack also.)
When you do visit Lisbon take the train to Sintra... Also Estoril... Both lovely day trips... Bon voyage 😊
You look great in your shorts. Smashing legs. I also loved the blue wide legged trousers with that River Island shirt.
Nice to see your having a lovely time
Lovely outfits❤❤
0:46 Hi Suzi, hope all your family business went well . I've been to Faro twice and had food poisoning both visits 😮 was probably tuna salad. Apparently some restaurants store tuna in open tins but it's a beautiful city !
I think you styled the wide leg cropped denim really well with white blouse! A tip is to wear pointed or square toed flats as makes leg's look longer but your white sneakers look great for daytime and easy on feet walking on cobbled paths, love from Amsterdam x
Ps you haven't lost your touch with editing x
Thank you so much lovely! How awful re: food poisoning! Hope you have a good week xx
Absolutely loved your outfits. Enjoy! X
Thank you Susan, glad you enjoyed xx
Love those trousers you bought,intact all the outfits. You do look very well, it's amazing what a rest and some sun can do for us. Shame you've come back to rain and cold weather again. See you next week thank you for the vlog.❤
I love you in the black and white outfit at the end of the video! The Sketchers sandals go perfectly with it too!👌
Thank you Jessica! xx
Love the black white slacks so cute you look great⭐️👍
Last outfit white T and black patterned pants very nice!
I loved all your outfits except those really baggy blue pants. But boy do I love the black and white ones. You look fabulous in shorts so go for it! Have a wonderful holiday and thank you for the tram tip. My sis is going so I’ll let her know! 🇨🇦👏🇨🇦
Thank you lovely! Hope your sis has a great time! xx
Wow suzi looking gorgeous in all your outfits the last outfit my absolute favourite your looking great toned tanned your fabulous luv your style have a fab holiday ❤️🥰

Love yr wide leg trousers from the vintage shop Suz x
Thanks for taking us with you. God, I need some warm weather! Love the black and white trousers ❤

Fabulous Vlog, fantastic outfits and you have such good legs Suzi I’m so jealous!!! I LOVE those wide chambray trousers and those Zara trousers are wonderful!!! So pleased you had a fabulous time and love your shopping haul especially the trousers. Take care lovely ❤️😘
Loving your outfits. Looking so stylish. White tops are definitely a must have. Have a wonderful holiday🐞
Thank you! It was lovely to get away! xx
I love the cream and camel travel look 👍very chic !
Hello from Melbourne. Love your vlog as usual - so down to earth. Love most of the outfits - wear whatever the heck you feel good in! And, by the way you have fabulous legs!!
Why thank you very much Danielle! So pleased to hear you enjoyed xx
The vintage shop looks great fun
Loved Ripley! Love all the clothes! I agree with you on the blue pants - very nice but difficult to style. Enjoyed the vlog very much. Many thanks. X
Thank you Susan! Glad you enjoyed xx
really enjoyed your holiday vlog, love the back and white pants! Have been watching Ripley and like it very much with the moody cinematography and great acting
Thank you for taking us to Faro with you. Love the Zara outfit and those black and white trousers are fab! ❤️
Thank you so much Deanna xx
❤loved the cream trousers you are looking well I used to have a little place in Villamoura Portugal haven’t visited Portugal for many years I must go soon take care safe Journey home Suzi
This hotel looks like it’s at a super location. Loving the outfits.
You look fabulous and thank you for the beautiful sunset ❤
Thank you Irene! Glad you enjoyed xx
Great vlog👍😎 When I put fake tan on my arms and legs, my bloody age spots show up darker than the rest of the skin!!!🤦♀️Looks like I’ve got some dreaded disease🥴 At least I’m still alive🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️😂😂
Portugal a beautiful country. I was last there in 1991 and always stayed in Lagos.
I’m always amazed that all these places have huge sound stages blasting with horrible rap noise…….that would ruin my whole vacation as I wouldn’t be able to sleep at all…….you always comment about those blue pants Suzi it’s the waistband,it’s too big and bulky, if you could bring it to your tailor and have the waist band made 1/4 of what you have it would enable you to wear a nice belt………if you live long enough everyone will have age spots….Ive had them burned off my arms, chest and hands however they often come back …….my face is pretty good , I guess I use more sunscreen there……..I still vote your Jean shorts with the blue top, it just look like it belongs at the beach……love the black and white pants……………have fun……❤❤ Donna in Toronto
Looking good - nice outfits. Successful shopping!!!! Trip well done/enjoyed!!
Loved all the outfits and you look so good in all of them!!! I am fixing to have a birthday and I will be 72. Getting older is hard but I try to enjoy my life as much as possible!!!🤗
That's good to hear Camille, and a Happy Birthday whenever the day is xx
Loved the black and white pants. Short sleeve shirt looks fine.
Love the vlog from Portugal I think you look amazing for your age I know how you feel I’m 62 almost 63 and I’ve noticed all ageing things creeping up on me too all part of the process. Your outfits are fab and I especially love the T-shirts and khaki shorts make you look so young who cares what anyone thinks Looking forward to next week already it’s so miserable here in UK this weekend will the sun ever show itself 🤞⭐😊
How old is suzi ?
Love the socks. Have fun.
The last outfit, black and white, you are gorgeous in it. 'LOVE it. Suits you so well.
Thank you Denise! xx
You look great and i love all your outfits totally beautifully put together 🙂
Fabulous outfits!! all of them! Hope you're enjoying 'The Salt Path', I read it recently - really liked it. 😘
Hiya Suzi, great Vlog. You are looking good love the outfits! I hope you bring some sun back with you! Underwired bras….horrible! Looks like there are a few other tourists around. Enjoy your time and have fun! All the very best Suzi.
Hiya Suzi Thankyou for sharing your holiday you look marvellous luv Ontario Canada 🇨🇦🐝
Always enjoy watching! Love your style!!🇨🇦🥰
Love that white shirt ❤
Your outfits looked amazing love the pants perfect for travel ...now you must travel to the wet coast of Vancouver island...after all the sun you probably can't wait for wind and rain 😂😂☔☔☔
Thank you so much lovely! That's so funny! 😂 xx
You are looking your usual lovely self but I thought I detected a slight sadness? You ok? Thank you for taking us on holiday with you. Now I have to wait a whole week until your next video!
Hello Gill, well you are very good at spotting things aren't you. I am feeling a bit low at the moment and was when I was out in Portugal. I think a lot of it is to do with Jack going and knowing I need to move, so big changes afoot and with the overwork I had before I went away, I think everything just hit me once I stopped! I cam back with renewed vigour and the break really did me good but I’ve now got a horrid cold so am back in the dumps, although the weather is AT LAST just gorgeous!!! Thank you for your concern, I will bounce back. I think I’m also hating getting older and older so we will chat about that on the vlog! xx
@@AlternativeAgeing a death in the family is a dreadful thing to come to terms with. My faithful Poopsy was savaged by a couple of dogs nearly 30 years ago and I'm still grieving. Also moving... my heart sinks at the thought. Besides this unstoppable aging business, is the fact that now Jack has gone, you're on your own. As much as a partner can be restrictive and at times, annoying, he/she is there to share the ups and downs, to look after you when you're unwell and to keep company with. It's bloody hard being on your own as you get older! You have my total admiration. To be up and about, interested, interesting, full of fun and vigour takes grit, especially if you're a bit down or full of a nasty cold.
So rest, fluid, vitamin c, zinc, vitamin d3 and k2 and maybe some NAC for you.
Looking forward to seeing up on your next vlog and hugs from NZ.
Loved your outfits! Enjoy!
Thought you looked really smart in your beige and cream outfit. Makes a change from all the colourful ones.😊
Thank you Jacqueline! xx
Loved the vlog. You look fantastic in your outfits, and it looks gorgeous where you are. ❤❤❤
Zwell we are ageing get on with it 79 years still having a good time ❤
Morning Suzi so pleased you had a great time in Faro. looks like you are really enjoyed yourself and it done you the world of good. I must go there as it looks a great place when you are on your own. I saw the film "The Holdovers" and it was very enjoyable worth a watch.I also went to the Soho theatre to see the comedy "Wereworf" live coudln't make head nor tail of it! Nice week take care.
Love ❤the black and white trousers!
❤ Oh Lord have Mercy! you are soooo darn cute and just like human Vit.D! just what the world needs more of ❤
Aww, that is so lovely, thank you Debbie! Much love and have a great week! xx
So agree with you re. masks and sanitiser: I have carried hand sanitiser since way before COVID struck, as I love to rummage in charity shops. I recently had to wear a mask to visit my doctor, and my glasses immediately misted over: I had forgotten how uncomfortable and suffocating it felt to wear one!
Love the new black and white pants.
you always look lovely x
Aww, thank you so much Dawn! So kind! xx
I enjoyed that Suzi thank you. I agree it gets you down ageing but you managed to put a positive spin on it.
Don’t you find those yoga bras hard to get on and off ? I always get in a tight twist with them😅
I'm moaning even more on today's vlog! Yes getting the yoga bras on is a bit of a pain with all those straps but I find taking them off more easy if I just pull them down instead of up! x
Love your outfits, and yes No7 brand available in Australia
I've never worn s backpack, and don't know if I would want to walk around all day in one. Probably need to work up to that.
I got the same Nordace . Absolutely the best!
Gorgeous and beautiful ❤❤❤❤
Very helpful and informative, love your outfits 🙂
Great vlog. Love your honest comments, makes me laugh. Enjoy your week x
Thank you Jackie, hope you have a great week too xx
What lip gloss are you using over your lipstick, I love the color ❤
I’m afraid it didn’t have a name. It was a NO.7 gloss, brownie colour but there is no name on it anywhere - so weird. Just pop into Boots and try them all! They’re so helpful in-store x
Love the shorts ❤❤❤❤
The natives probably think it’s still cold and are just surprised that anyone is wearing shorts. You have amazing legs show them off 🤩
you look fab in the jean out fit
Thank you Sharon! xx
You are FABULOUS🤩🤩🤩
Why thank you so much! So kind! xx
You look great in shorts Suzi. Those pale baggy pants need to go though - you are right. Compared to you in B&W pants which look amazing the blue do nothing for you.
Hi Suzie how do you get rid of the red veins on your face. Can you tell us how to do this. Laser I'm gathering. Great video ❤
I think they have to be layered, you’re right, so I am asking Dr. Ahmed if he can do them, otherwise I know another good woman in London so will keep you posted. I am hating getting older and older at the moment and must stop this worrying and moaning - more moaning on next weeks vlog! xx
Ha ha. Suzie, I feel your pain. I, too, hate this aging thing. It's so out of our control and happens faster than the speed of light. The mirror becomes the enemy. Love to know more from your Dr. Mayb do a vlog on all these red veins that crop up from nowhere, you would have a huge audience 😂 ❤
Well who was in my readers digest today ?😊
Do you know if river island still sells the shirt please x
I have no idea I’m, afraid. Just go on to their site and have a little look. I’m sure they will have other white shirts if not that one x
As I keep saying we are the right side of the daisies. But getting old isn’t for sissies as some famous (!) person allegedly said. But a bit of red lippy can solve a multitude of issues
Betty Davis! 🇨🇦
