40 & fabulous: Celebrities owning their 40’s

We have all heard the phrase, “Life begins at 40”. This is an aspiration many women have, to look their best and feel their best when they turn 40. The phrase life begins at 40 means that when one reaches the age of forty, life becomes better, maybe because one has the skills, experiences, and means necessary for an enjoyable life.

During the twentieth and twenty-first century, life expectancy increased and it became common to consider middle-aged people young enough to enjoy their lives to the fullest.

This article is all about fan favorite celebrities embracing life in their forties and how fabulous they look.
