The Black-ish star looks exactly the same now as she did over 20 years ago. “APRÈS SWIM ~ maybe 21 or 22 years old,” Tracee captioned the photo, which showed her sitting outside in a blue bikini top with her curly hair wrapped in a turban headwrap.

If you look at one of the most recent photos Tracee shared Wednesday, the proof is there. The 48-year-old thesp gave major WFH style inspo in a green turtleneck top paired with gray trousers, and completed the look with oversized gold hoop earrings, two gold necklaces, and chic black Chanel opticals.

“SHADES OF GREEN” for today’s zooming, she captioned the series of photos of her rocking the look. “Hello Gorgeous,” Harpers Bazaar Editor in Chief wrote. “These are my blue screen protector glasses. I had the lenses done!,” Tracee replied. “Sissss! You just inspired an outfit. I have that same turtle neck and pants.”
It’s no secret Tracee has an incredible style, but at this point we need her to launch a skincare line, considering there is no difference in her face here and in her throwback photo.
