Meet the 70-year-old who isn’t afraid to don leather shorts and mini skirts and says you should "never give up on yourself".

Faye Browne, who turns 70 at the end of the month, has always loved fashion and follows the latest trends – wearing mini skirts and slinky dresses.

The fashion designer says clothing makes her feel “confident” and she never leaves the house without feeling put together.

Faye describes her personal style as “classic but edgy” and wants to inspire other women to “wear everything”.

She often gets told she looks 20 years younger and says she doesn’t feel her age.

00:00 I often get asked, how can you look like this at 70?
00:09 And I don't know what that is, because this is just me.
00:12 My personal belief is that I get better with age.
00:15 That's it.
00:16 The minute you give up, it's over.
00:19 Okay, so my outfit today, look, it's going to be a bit of a cool day.
00:23 Love this.
00:24 This is such a cool outfit.
00:25 Look, I feel cool.
00:26 I intend to dance the night away with that really fine heel.
00:34 I might have to find something else, but not a bad look.
00:37 First try on for my birthday dress.
00:40 And of course, my accessory.
00:43 No, it's not my bag.
00:44 My accessory is my beautiful husband.
00:45 Come over here, darling.
00:46 I like the rain hat with my hair down.
01:03 And look at this amazing jacket.
01:08 Okay, so you can see how everything is.
01:13 I look like I've shrunk.
01:14 I probably look like that every day anyway.
01:16 I just don't intend to show you, because I only want to show you the good stuff.
01:20 Anyway, so the first thing I'm going to do is roll these sleeves right up, because you
01:25 have to see that underneath all this fabric is me.
01:30 There we go.
01:32 Now you can see where I am in there.
01:34 Have just a simple little top under there.
01:37 That's my look today.
01:49 Every single day, there is something special about you.
01:52 Lovely bling, chucky necklaces, aren't they just amazing?
01:56 Printed pants, good printed pants at Animal Print.
01:59 Best print of all time.
02:00 I'm going all gray, because I like it.
02:01 You know, yeah, I can do something different, but this is cool.
