The multi-hyphenate talent, mother of two, and unabashed fashion lover posted these stunning outfit photos on her Instagram account with the caption, "I'm too old for this outfit slash I am hoping you tell me I'm not?!?!," and the comments are flooded with kudos from friends, fans, and fashion industry folks alike.
Fellow screenwriter Kelly Oxford astutely pointed out, "'Am I too old..?' needs to be removed from [the] lexicon… I love this on you," which we wholeheartedly agree with.
