Rachel Bilson Celebrates 44: Makeup-Free Glamour and Family Love
RACHEL BILSON CELEBRATES 44 AND SHINES IN MAKEUP-FREE GLORY
The OG It Girl is getting older, but she's still got it! Rachel Bilson marked a major milestone on Monday - her 44th birthday - and proved that age is just a number. The former queen of Newport Beach celebrated the occasion with her mom Janice Stango in Los Angeles, and we've got all the juicy deets from their stylish outing.
The actress, who's still looking as youthful as ever (despite being over four decades young), ditched the makeup for this family affair. But don't worry, she didn't sacrifice style for a more relaxed look. Rachel rocked a burnt orange maxi smock dress that fell just past her ankles, giving off major boho chic vibes. The flowy number was paired with coordinating strappy brown flats and gold stud accents - because who needs heels when you've got comfort on your side?
But it's not just the outfit that's getting attention; Rachel's hair is still a force to be reckoned with! Her glossy, straight brunette locks were left loose, arranged in a center part with the front pieces tucked behind her ears. And let's talk about those dark Ray Ban Wayfarer sunglasses - she either wore them on her face or perched them atop her head, giving off a laid-back vibe.
Meanwhile, Rachel's mom Janice was serving up some serious style inspiration of her own. The fashion-forward momager rocked wide-leg, patterned golden yellow and white trousers paired with a crisp white blouse. Her mane of tousled, white-gray curly locks framed her face as she sported green-framed sunglasses and a bold red lip stain. We're loving the coordinated look, Janice!
But it's not just about the fashion - we've got some inside scoop on Rachel's personal life too! The actress re-shared her many birthday wishes from loved ones via her Instagram Stories, including sweet messages from her younger sister Hattie Bilson. In a hilarious post, Hattie poked fun at Rachel's 5'2" height, writing "Happy birthday to my little big sister!" alongside a photo of the two sisters.
Rachel also shared a throwback photo of the pair, captioning it "I love youuuu." We're melting over here! But what we didn't know was that Hattie is following in Rachel's footsteps - and then some. The actress is co-hosting the popular podcast Broad Ideas alongside Olivia Allen, which covers all sorts of juicy topics like sex, mental health, and even ghosts!
The show's Instagram profile describes it as "like chatting with your girlfriends," and we couldn't agree more! With new episodes dropping every Monday, you can tune in for a healthy dose of gossip, laughter, and real talk. And speaking of gossip, the podcast even dedicated an episode to Rachel on her birthday - featuring old images of the close friends and co-hosts.
The caption read, "In honor of @rachelbilson's birthday today, here are some throwback pictures of Rachel & Olivia’s friendship over the years. Happy birthday Rachel!" We're so glad we get to witness their beautiful friendship on screen (and in real life).
So here's to Rachel Bilson - may her 44th year be filled with love, laughter, and endless opportunities for growth!
