Guess what’s Martha Stewart’s big secret? She’s anti-underwear! At 82, this lifestyle maven is all about swimsuits under her daily attire. Why, you ask? Well, you never know when the urge to take a spontaneous dip might strike! No lacy knickers for Martha, no sir!
In her own words to the New York Post’s Page Six, Martha spilled the beans: “I like bathing suits. I like wearing bathing suits under my clothes just in case I want to go swimming. Bathing suits are my underwear. I don’t wear any of that structured stuff. No tight lace, no Skims for Martha.” Sorry, Kim K, your Skims aren’t making it into Martha’s wardrobe rotation.
But hold up, Martha had a moment of concern. Would Kim Kardashian be offended by her comments? Nah, she reckons Kim’s chill. “But I love Skims. I think they serve a very good purpose – but I don’t wear those. I only wear Aerie bathing suits under my clothes. ‘Is Kim Kardashian going to be mad at me?’ No, she won’t be mad at me. She knows I don’t wear Skims.” Phew, crisis averted.
And if you thought Martha was just lounging around in her swimsuits, think again! Last year, she became Sports Illustrated’s oldest model ever for their legendary swimsuit issue. Breaking records and breaking barriers, Martha’s out here inspiring us all to rethink our wardrobe choices and embrace life at any age.
In her own words to Extra, Martha’s all about living well and looking good, no matter the number on your birthday cake. “It is breaking barriers and also encouraging other women to just rethink what they’re doing. I think that is really going to help a lot, and it’s also, you can look good at any age, you can feel good at any age, you should live well at any age. I think about living successfully, not aging well.” Preach it, Martha!
Martha didn’t just wake up like this. She’s all about that fitness life. Cutting carbs, hitting up Pilates (which she’s kind of obsessed with, by the way), and even some horseback riding and hiking. “Did my Pilates this morning. I do it three days a week… I got sort of addicted to it. I like it a lot, but I also have to do my horseback riding and the other nice things… hiking.” Martha Stewart: the original fitspo queen.
