At what point in your life do you take a step back, look in the mirror, and say to yourself, "You know what? Let me take this off. I'm getting too old for this look?"
When you start to ponder if you look silly...
Take LL, who often looks like a walking advertisement for botox.
At the same time, I don't want to end being the old man at the club. If Jay and Jermaine weren't rich, don't you think people would be asking why are Sanford and Son still dressing like the kids? And after a while, you go from that to this:
I don't want to end up 87 still getting giddy about being in VIP. If you're old enough to remember black and white televisions, stay home. Pop-Pop and Grady look like old school players, don't they? I wouldn't be surprised if they have eight prescription bottles stashed in the pockets of their suit jackets, though.
Here's to hoping I can age gracefully and get to the point where I'm content with my age, leaving the matter of proving anything to those still trying to find their own way ---like wack tats on the right and the Lost Boys pictured above.
