    Tune In to Your Unique Beauty

    Written by Sisters From AARP — July 10, 2023

    Look outside. It’s gorgeous! In summer, we see natural beauty all around—flowers, trees, lakes, birds, a sunrise or a cloudless sky.

    Now look inside. You’re gorgeous! Do you see and feel your incompa­rable natural beauty in this season of your life? There’s a saying: “Look good, feel good.” We happen to think it works both ways. When you’re glowing within, it shows. That’s why we’ve curated a playlist that’ll have you feeling yourself, Sis! Doesn’t hearing “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World,” by Prince bring out your inner fly girl?

    Like fine wine, we just get better with time. As Beyoncé celebrates in her ode to body positivity and self-acceptance, “Cozy,” “I been thick, been fine, still a ten, still here, that's all me.” This playlist flows with 22 sophisticated, smoldering, sentimental and summery vibes. A self-love note from Mary J. Blige, “Good Morning Gorgeous” (the remix featuring H.E.R.), reminds us to cherish the queen we see in the mirror, even before we style our hair and put our makeup on. LL gives a throwback shout to the “Around the Way Girl” whose “smile is like sunshine”; DeBarge likes “the way you comb your hair “and “those stylish clothes you wear” on “I Like It”; D’Angelo can’t stop singing the praises of his “Lady”; Damian Marley wants to do “Grown & Sexy” things like “island skipping, fine wine sip­ping, gourmet cooking, no Face­booking”; Babyface proclaims “You Are So Beautiful”; and Bruno Mars knows you’re amazing “Just the Way You Are.”

    So push play, spread your “Pretty Wings” and fly like a “Black Butterfly,” ladies.
