Ricki Lake continues to bring back and re-wear older clothes!

On Monday, the actress shared a side-by-side photo wearing an older skirt and turtleneck from her closet 13 years after showing off the stylish look.

The actress brought the look to life for the American Cinema Editors (ACE) Awards on Sunday night in Los Angeles.

“Same clothes 13 years ago apart. December 2011 (right after I did this DWTS) and now,” she wrote in the description. She also added hashtags with the inspirational phrases “this is 55”, “all natural”, “healthy”, “happy” and “proud”.

Both announcements come in the midst of the actress’ health and fitness journey, which she began last fall with her husband, Ross Burningham.

On February 24, she shared a carousel on Instagram, telling fans and followers that she and Burningham, 56, began their health journey on October 26, 2023.

“I made a commitment to be healthier,” she wrote on Instagram. “I really want to share, because we did this without relying on drugs. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that.) But neither of us was prediabetic, and we both felt like we wanted to at least try to do it ourselves.”

As the two continue down that path, Lake shared how she was “concerned” that her “perimenopausal” body “wouldn’t shed the pounds like it has in the past.” However, Lake managed to reach her target weight on February 24.

“I’m so proud of us. I feel amazing. I feel strong – she wrote. “I’ll go into detail about exactly what I did in another post, but suffice it to say, this is the healthiest way I’ve lost weight in all my years.”

“Honestly, these days are the best of my life,” she wrote in a June Instagram post that included a nude photo. “54 1/2 years old (young!) Grateful for everything that had to happen to get me here. A place of total self-acceptance and self-love.”
