Actress Jane Fonda has once again proven she’s the ultimate style icon this week as the Grace and Frankie star showed off her slim physique in a youthful summery ensemble ahead of her Good Morning America appearance.

The 84-year-old actress and activist sported a longsleeved sea-green blouse that featured splashes of purple, blue and orange. She had opted to tuck in her blouse into her white high-waisted slacks, that featured gold buttons at the front, which accentuated her trim waistline.

For accessories, Fonda kept things simple choosing only to wear a pair of gold earrings, but painted her nails a pale nude, and wore slightly platformed white loafer shoes.

Fonda appeared as though she hadn’t aged a day with her make-up, keeping things light and fresh for the daytime interview but adding a slight pop of colour with her pink lipstick.

Over the years, Fonda has been a notable advocate against ageism. Earlier this year, the Oscar-winning actress opened up to CBS News Sunday Morning about getting older, telling the network: “I’m super-conscious that I’m closer to death. And it doesn’t really bother me that much.”

While Fonda has also made it a commitment to living each day to the fullest, she has admitted to still experiencing the occasional negative feeling about her age and her body.

“What bothers me is that my body is, you know, basically not mine! My knees are not mine, my hips are not mine, my shoulder’s not mine,” she said. In recent years, Fonda had undergone several knee replacements and two hip replacements for which she is now thankful for.

“I mean, I’m almost 85,” she said. “The fact that I’m still alive and working…. Who cares if I don’t have my old joints and I can’t ski or bike or run anymore?”

Fonda had also previously told Elle Canada she vowed to never go under the knife again for cosmetic reasons.

“I can’t pretend that I’m not vain,” she told the magazine at the time. “But there isn’t going to be any more plastic surgery—I’m not going to cut myself up anymore.”

“I have to work every day to be self-accepting; it doesn’t come easy to me. I try to make it very clear that it has been a long and continuing struggle for me.”

Despite her daily struggles with self-acceptance, Fonda absolutely loves being in her 80s and has called it the best part of her life.
