A style blog based on a fifty-something Baby Boomer doing her best to age gracefully.
Here are all of my posts featuring my personal outfits and looks, plus style tips, and iconic women to inspire women over the age of 50 to be their most stylish self.
Always looking for an opportunity to hang out with my daughter, I drove to New York City this weekend to enjoy a weekend of beauty and bring a few much needed items to help Channing get organized in her new abode. Our plans included nails, make-up and hair. But as I see it…I was in […]
1. Spring has sprung! I see the trees sprouting leaves, flowers blooming and grass beginning to grow. These seasonal changes make for excellent discussions for me with medical professionals to discuss how their patients could benefit from switching up their medications. 2. In less than 27 days, I am so excited that I will embark […]
One of my favorite things to do is watch black and white movies. You know the ones with great story lines, girl always gets the guy and all issues are resolved with two hours. Women were sophisticated and beacons of elegance with their handbags, gloves and hats in their matching ensembles. When I attended a […]
Wearing: Kate Spade New York Necklace, Kate Spade New York Quilted Jacket, Kate Spade New York “Licorice” Suede Pumps Spring doesn’t start for another 10 days, but the warm weather this weekend made it seem even closer. I am ‘spring forward’ with the nice weather as I train for the Nike Half Marathon happening next month. I welcome […]
Today’s post is inspired by many of the ladies that I invited to my Stella & Dot Jewelry Trunk Show who were unfamiliar with the name. Only 2/10 women have heard of this company according to my Stella & Dot Stylist, Lisa Cary Morela. Last week I told you that I am doing my first […]
I am devoting today’s post to “Slim Dressing.” I am having a moment….a fat moment. Actually, who am I kidding? This is more than a moment. I’ve felt this way since the beginning of the year. My samplings of the less-than-friendly carbohydrates from the holidays have caught up with me. I would like to believe […]
When I think of February being the shortest month of the year and the only month with fewer than 30 days, many fun events/activities come to mind: Black History Month, Super Bowl (yay Ravens), Valentine’s Day, Ground Hog Day, and President’s Day. However, Heart Healthy Month has been relatively new on the calendar in recent […]
Today, I am wearing leather for my outfit pose/post. As you know, leather is a durable and flexible material created by tanning animal rawhide and skin. Today, I wanted to focus on another type of skin: human skin. How should we protect our skin, especially as African Americans or people of color? How durable is […]
As I’ve gotten older, I’ve found a few things to know as my ‘saving grace.’ We all have items or things that we do that we couldn’t imagine having to live and don’t want to, honestly, live without. As I got older, my hormones changed. My hair changed, including its color, texture, and even thickness. […]
Even though subscriptions to magazines through different apps and e-readers are hugely prevalent, I still like to subscribe to the magazines I can hold. It’s relaxing to read about fashion and beauty (it’s a Calgon moment—take me away). I find it interesting that 90% of the articles one reads in fashion magazines focus on outer […]
