7 Pics Of Savannah Guthrie That Prove She Keeps Getting Better With Age

Through her harrowing experience of her mother being kidnapped in early February 2026, the "Today" show's Savannah Guthrie, has posted throwback pics from her childhood, showing happier days with her mom. We feel for her in her moment of pain, just as we've celebrated with her at moments of triumph and joy, because Guthrie is one of those celebs who is both aspirational and relatable with her down-to-earth nature.

From throwback photos where Savannah Guthrie is nearly unrecognizable to pics of her and the other ladies of the "Today" show going makeup-free, we can see that this Arizona native consistently proves that she keeps getting better with age. Guthrie, who turned 54 at the end of 2025, has said in the past she's "definitely not above" getting a little Botox but also embraces her fine lines (via Today). "I do have some wrinkles. I call them smile lines," she said in 2018. "They're from smiles and laughing, and those are the best kind of wrinkles."

In 2006, Savannah Guthrie, then on Court TV, posed for a photo in Washington, D.C. wearing a gray suit with navy detailing. She looks fine. But compare that to a pic of her in 2025 when she's attending an event celebrating Hoda Kotb, and you'll see that she looks more sophisticated and stylish nearly two decades later. On an Instagram post of Guthrie in her elegant black suit dress, a fan wrote, "I love the way SG dresses."

Looking back at Savannah Guthrie's appearances on the "Today" show, where she's been a co-host and anchor since 2011, we can see that she's rarely worn her hair up, with a 2013 appearance being an exception. More recently, she's been sampling updos more frequently, including for the Rockefeller Center Tree Lighting Ceremony in December 2025. Keeping some fringe down to frame her face keeps Guthrie's youthful hairstyle looking fresh and flattering. 

Savannah Guthrie has shown that she was able to find her perfect LBD style through the years. In 2011, she wore an off-the-shoulder cocktail dress to a Marchesa fashion week presentation, showing off her toned shoulders at age 39. But Guthrie outdid herself 14 years later at a charity gala, proving she keeps getting better with age. On an Instagram post from the night, one of Guthrie's fans commented, "Sidenote: Gorgeous dress!"

Dressing in costume doesn't exactly give us the best look at the real Savannah Guthrie, but we have to take the opportunity to point out how fab her "Today" show Halloween looks have been throughout the years. In 2013, she dressed as Laverne De Fazio from classic '70s and '80s sitcom "Laverne & Shirley," and in 2025 she channeled Meryl Streep's "The Devil Wears Prada" character, Miranda Priestly. It's one more thing to love about Savannah Guthrie: Her playful spirit hasn't slowed down in her 50s.

For the 98th annual White House Correspondents' Association Dinner, held in D.C. in April 2012, Savannah Guthrie looked statuesque in a dress with a lace overlay. Fast forward to the same event in 2024, and we can see that the "Today" host looks equally, if not more, stunning in a strapless black Oscar de la Renta fit-and-flare gown that gave her an hourglass silhouette.

Savannah Guthrie has scoffed at photos of her early days as a local news anchor, when she sported brunette hair, and confirmed that was her natural hair color (via Parade). "Today" fans are used to Guthrie's blonde highlights, which have become her signature look over the years, as seen on the "Today" set in October 2025. But there's another shade she sampled briefly during her morning show tenure, and that's a spicy red hair color back in 2013.

White is the one color that makes every outfit look expensive, and Savannah Guthrie has known the power of the shade throughout her morning show career. In the summer of 2013, she wore a fresh white outfit as she hosted "Today" in Rockefeller Center. And more than a decade later in 2024, she wore a summery white jacket and top with layered jewelry, showing how her fashion sense has elevated over the years.
