1/10
Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie has always had amazing features, and they were evident throughout her childhood and teenage years. In the twenties, she did go through an experimental phase which made people furrow their brows but now, she is one of the most successful actresses around and a beautiful and brave mother of 4.
2/10
Connie Britton
Connie Britton, who stared in American Horror Story, somehow looked older than she does now in her before photo! Some people age gracefully, and others, age in reverse. She looks absolutely gorgeous and that hair really makes her look a lot more youthful.
3/10
David Beckham
David Beckham is one of the most famous football players in history. First and foremost known for his prowess on the field, it was only recently that he started getting recognized for his good looks. Beckham always had the potential, but he just needed the nudge in the right direction (and a stylist). Now, as husband to Victoria Beckham, and father to 4 beautiful children, he looks even better than he did at 20.
4/10
George Clooney
George Clooney truly is like fine wine that only gets better with age. We're not saying that he wasn't handsome before though. His features haven't changed a tad bit, but that hairdo really wasn't doing it for him, or any of us. The 21st century brought many good things upon Clooney, including his signature, classy gentleman style that he rocks even at 54.
5/10
Daniel Craig
Danial Craig used to look washed out and a little ghastly with his bleached hair and pale face. But now, the Bond man has seen the light. The light of a tanning bed that is. He looks healthy and strong with his healthy tan and immaculate hairstyle. We don't mind the wrinkles either - we say they add character.
6/10
Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake went from popstar heartthrob with ramen noodle hair to popstar heatthrob with really good hair in just over a decade. Looking a lot more suave than he did when he was in NSYNC, Justin has a name known the world over, and for good reason.
7/10
Tilda Swinton
Tilda Swinton has never been considered traditionally beautiful, but you can't deny that there is something about her that draws you in and makes you look at her in wonderment. Her before and after don't even look that different, but her short, blonde hair suits her a lot better than her plain brown do of yesteryears.
8/10
Jennifer Lopez
No longer Jenny from the Block, Jennifer Lopez has evolved into one of the sexiest Latina women around. When she was younger, she looked like a wholesome beauty, and while she is still beautiful now, it has shifted to something a lot more sensual and mature.
9/10
Robert Downey Jr.
Robert Downey Jr. had a major breakdown before, messing around with hard drugs and more. The stress of it all really took a toll on his looks, especially since he went to prison. But now, it's almost like his past never happened. Robert is genuinely happy, with a wonderful wife and many amazing acting roles, like Sherlock Holmes and Iron Man.
10/10
Jessica Lange
Forever immortalized as the main lead in King Kong other than the Gorilla, Jessica Lange has always been beautiful. After that famous role, she went on to win many awards that recognized her remarkable talent. In more recent years, she has acted in American Horror Story along with Connie Britton. She has probbaly had a little bit of work done here and there, but honestly, who hasn't? At 66, Jessica has not lost her natural born beauty in her captivating eyes and defined jawline.

Celebrities like Robert Downey Jr., Angelina Jolie, George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez sure have aged well, just like fine wine.

Most people consider age the sworn enemy of beauty. They think that growing old is an end all, be all to their days of being called beautiful, because to them beauty means no grey hair and wrinkles. They dread growing old, and do whatever it takes to look young – sometimes not to their success.

However, there are some people who are completely at peace with aging, and in fact, do it very well. No fuss and no freaking out. Some people are late bloomers, who only reach their pinnacle of beauty when they’re in their 40s (the perfect example being George Clooney). Others had a rough or stranger start in their early adult life but pulled themselves together and made it big in the later years. They include the likes of Robert Downey Jr. and Angelina Jolie. So to celebrate those who’ve aged ever so gracefully, here’s a list of celebrities who have gathered richness and their own bold flavour as they grew, inspiring us to age as well as them.
