There are many people around us who defy the very number determining their age. One such social media personality is Colleen Heidemann who is still living her best days at the age of 74. Is there anything she can’t wear? Colleen is seen sporting short skirts, ripped jeans, high heels, and swimsuits. When you do something gutsy, you have to be prepared for criticism as well. While she has over 370,000 followers on TikTok, there are some that do not think that it’s right for her to wear such outfits. But Colleen is not a gimmick. She has called out her haters on several occasions. To add more credibility to her fanbase, she has 417,000 followers on Instagram as well.
Colleen is a former flight attendant and is continuing to break stereotypes at her age. Despite the criticism, she has no plans of slowing down or bowing down to the hatred. The strong-headed lady sports her outfits like there’s no tomorrow. And she has a message for her haters. In one of her videos, she mentions, “‘This swimwear is not age appropriate,’ is what they say. I say: Wear what makes you feel good!” Heidemann also added, “Everybody has a swimsuit body.” In another video, she shuts down her trolls while looking stylish as she says, “Don’t let them define you. We are strong. We are not invisible. I dress my age however I want.”

Her words serve as an inspiration to many of her followers, especially women who are told what to wear and what not to. Moreover, she has not been doing this for decades as one might think. Colleen started her modeling career at the age of 69 when most people her age are already enjoying their retirement. But not for her as she is just getting started. As she deals with her haters, there are many people who keep reminding her that whatever she’s doing is an inspiration for them.
