My 5 Cheeky Rules for Owning the Gray

So there I was, Honey, silver strands shining after that gorgeous man held my hand across the street.

My current husband nearly dropped his coffee when I told him.

1. Own the shine. I tilt my head in sunlight till it flashes. Men sprint across lots like it's an Olympic event.
2. Skip the dye. Color made my second ex call me safe. Gray gets doors flung open and fingers laced on Main Street.
3. Pick your moment. I save the slow smile for the crowded grocery aisle. My current husband still pretends not to notice.
4. Frame the face. Silver sets off red lipstick and bare collarbones. One ex stares. The parking-lot runners stare harder.
5. Never explain. When he asks why so many men grin, I just pat his cheek. I'm old, not dead. The gray stays.

Gray never looked so good on a troublemaker.
