[quote=Anonymous]I'm in big law. I do not spend a ton of time each day on appearance, but I put value on it in my lifestyle. I buy clothes that I like and look flattering on me, I work out and eat properly, and I get my hair cut and colored in a flattering way every couple months. I wear a bit of make up every day but my make up routine has barely changed since I was 20 (i.e., mascara, eye liner, blush and lip color). I don't love that I'm aging and look older than I did when I was 20, but I don't think how old I looked has ever impacted my career. My firm has ranks of highly successful women in their 50s and 60s, and they run the gamut of botoxed and well dressed, to no makeup and frumpy suits. I don't think aging will have any impact on my career, but I do think it has been and will continue to be important to be very pulled together, regardless of age (unless you're the super rain maker who gets away with no make up).
