A style blog based on a fifty-something Baby Boomer doing her best to age gracefully.
Last weekend, my daughter, Channing, and I celebrated her birthday in the Pocono Mountains at the premier Akwaaba inn. I first learned of Akwaaba when I won a trip to their Brooklyn location in November 2019 from the AARP Sisters essay contest. We specifically chose The Mansion at Noble Lane for the supremely qualified resort […]
For the past 18 years, the American Heart Association’s campaign, Go Red for Women®, is still going strong. Why? The battle is not over, with heart disease still the number one health risk for women. My question to you is, Are you living to your heart’s content? The Go Red for Women® is a signature […]
In today’s post, I’m wearing recycled materials to share my commitment to reducing my carbon footprint. You may recall late last year; I vowed to move away from fast fashion and seek out companies with a commitment to sustainability.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the Hotel Hershey; it’s merry and bright at the sweetest place on earth. For more than 85 years, the Hotel Hershey has created sweet, memorable experiences. My early memories as a child include bus rides from Philly to visit the amusement park during the summers. When […]

It’s not surprising that Sarah Flint NYC Pop-Up Boutique, a unique designer shoe experience, created a location on West Broadway. Since I became a brand ambassador for Sarah Flint shoes, I didn’t mind […]
