Aleta C. Saunders, 53

Real estate broker, devoted mom, outdoors enthusiast; Atlanta

“I’m 6’1” but I’ve never had an issue with that. If you feel beautiful, you radiate that; people see that and that’s what’s most important.”

Aleta shows her funky style in the 1960s.

Age-defying secrets: “I’ve been a vegetarian for most of my life. I’m also a member of a boot camp. We meet three times a week; we jog, do suicide drills, box. And I’ve just started working with a personal trainer, twice a week.”

Aleta flaunts her flawless skin and a signature ‘do in the 70s.

Wise words: “There’s nothing wrong with enhancing your beauty. But beauty comes from within, and you have to feel beautiful to be beautiful.”

Though her smile is the same, Aleta’s hairstyle proclaims it is indeed the 80s.

Saunders doesn’t have a regimen. She simply washes her face and body with castile soap and drinks loads of water. “I am conscious of what I put into my system,” she adds.

Our ageless beauty Aleta travels the globe in the 90s.

She also enjoys bike-riding and nature and loves to take advantage of Atlanta¹ various outdoor festivals and free concerts.

Aleta greets the new millenium with her same grace and charm that has followed her through the decades.

Wise words: “There’s nothing wrong with enhancing your beauty. But beauty comes from within, and you have to feel beautiful to be beautiful.”
