Alternative Ageing is a multi-faceted lifestyle blog founded by 68-year old Brighton native Suzi Grant. The fashion lover's platform doesn't only spotlight her bright and artful wardrobe picks but is also a vast resource of articles centered around topics like health, beauty, food and more.
In addition to featuring street style photographs on her Instagram account of over 16, 000 followers, Suzi also shares healthy, and easy-to-make recipes on her blog and chronicles her travels across cities like Amsterdam, Marrakech and Ibiza to name a few.
Suzi's age-positive approach to social media is a reflection of the fashion industry's ongoing inclusive stance, and the influencer names Advanced Style -- a platform known for exclusively featuring style icons who are 50 and over -- as one of her main inspirations.
