Age is but a number, a statement that rings true for Jennifer Lopez, who at 49, appears to be half her age. “I’ve taken care of myself, and now it shows,” Lopez tells InStyle magazine for her December 2018 cover. Mostly, she credits her everlasting youth to three core habits: no alcohol, no caffeine and a surplus of sleep. How does she do it?
Never one to shy away from her roots, J.Lo proudly embraces her native Bronx and it’s influence on her style. “It’s what I still often wear to this day, the big hoops and, you know, gold jewelry,” she said, adding, “I always like to mix the glam with a bit of the hood.”
She may still be Jenny From the Block, but now she’s dressed in couture. For her shoot, Lopez wore a shimmering, emerald green Valentino Haute Couture cape, sans clothing. The look rivaled her famous Versace dress from the 42nd Grammy Awards which has transcended to pop culture iconography through the years.

People would think a career as long as Lopez’s would eventually slow her down, but it’s done just the opposite. At the moment, she’s working on a couple of TV shows, as well as an upcoming skincare line. Go, J.Lo, go!
