The couple has been married for 37 years and their social media handle, @bonpon511, is a nod to their names and their wedding date. Since joining Instagram earlier this year, they have amassed over 260,000 followers.

“It’s fun to wear matching clothes,” Bon said to the BBC. And she said they pay special attention to matching their outfits on holidays.

Their style is in line with the clean and minimal aesthetic that defines Japanese fashion design, and their penchant for gingham, stripes and bright pops of colour prove that moving into your golden years doesn’t have to mean toning down your style.
