Known on Instagram as “Accidental Icon,” culture influencer and model, Lyn Slater, joins us to discuss her memoir “How to Be Old: Lessons in Living Boldly from the Accidental Icon.”

When Lyn Slater started her fashion blog, Accidental Icon, at age sixty-one, she discovered that followers were flocking to her account for more than just her A-list style. As Lyn flaunted gray hair, wrinkles, and a megadose of self-acceptance, they found in her an alternative model of older life: someone who defied the stereotypes, refused to become invisible, and showed that all women have the opportunity to be relevant and take major risks at any stage of their life.
