Soft Surroundings Spring 2013 Plus a Giveaway

Thank you, ladies, for yesterday’s discussion!  I love it when we can bring all sides to an
issue.  I post almost every comment unless
it is inappropriate, crude, or a personal attack.  This is how we learn from one another, and, I
believe, it is important to hear from everyone.   (Of
course, this is the journalism teacher speaking!)

My main point is that women of all ages, sizes, and incomes
deserve to look and feel amazing no matter their circumstances.  You do not have to spend big dollars to do
just that.  There are too many other ways
to avoid the moo-moos.  I can take the
same amount of money on yesterday’s flyer and put that woman who might be a
shut in, in a nursing home, or overweight in something fabulous and functional,
 and help her feel better about herself.    This
blog has been about the power proper clothing, daily beauty care, and a healthy
lifestyle can bring to your personal contentment.   Clothing is NOT where our inward joy comes
from…but it definitely helps!
Soft Surroundings is one retailer which exists to help the
woman 50+ look and feel her best.  They
give us the feeling of high price point fashion for a mid-range price.  The spring line is joyful as the season
itself, and celebrates getting out and looking amazing for warm weather
functions.  I still like the fact that
you will find stylish, chic, flirty, feminine, and bohemian all in one store or
catalog.  Here are a few of my favorite prints this year,
but you really must see everything.  Of
course, Gigi goes crazy over their gorgeous maxi-skirts. Make sure you register
below to win the fun topper!!
Solano Top
Tropical Tunic
Cote d Azur Tunic
To win the beautiful topper I am modeling, you must be a follower of my blog, and leave me a comment here or on my Facebook page and tell me your favorite look from the spring line.  Also, remember Mother’s Day is not too far away, this topper would be a great gift!  A winner will be selected on April 3!!  If you want extra entries, then I will give you one per additional promotion of the contest through FB or Twitter or on your own blog!!

Now, have a wonderful Monday and make sure you visit the stylish bloggers of VISIBLE MONDAY and WE ARE BEAUTIFUL and MONDAY BLOOM!! and MONDAY MINGLE!!

 Your “living-like-you-feel-40” tip of the day:  Make time and have fun with girlfriends…no matter your ages!  Even if it is through a fun blog hop!!

  1. I love the topper you are wearing with the look they provide on their website. It's shown with shelf bra cami (needed!) and Restell Pants. I also love the double wrap belt with the Althea Sandal. A winning combination! Thanks for always making me think more about pulling outfits together instead of purchasing separate pieces that don't go with anything in my wardrobe. http://www.softsurroundings.com/outfit/bistro/

  2. Lovely, Pam! I really like this color for Spring and your necklace is fabulous with your new topper. Thanks so much for linking up to Visible Monday : >

  3. This was such a hard decision for me because everything in the Soft Surroundings catalog is literally to die for! I think I am going to choose the Tropical Tunic because we are going to Sanibel Island at the end of next month and this would be the perfect choice for an evening out on the town (or as the case may be, island!)

  4. I don't think there are any Soft Surroundings shops in Los Angeles but I sure do love the bottom top, Cote de Azure. It would look great with one of the bracelets also shown on your post. Thanks for the giveaway!

  5. I love that topper, Pam! Those are definitely my colors! I'm not sure it'll look as good on me as it does on you, but I may get a chance to find out.
    Thanks for focusing on an alternative to the "Flu Moo" for those of us that may have physical or circumstantial limitations. 🙂

  6. I agree with you Pam that clothes and accessory are not the most important factor of happiness but it definitely adds so much color, joy and spice to our lives! You look beautiful! And thank you so much for sharing this gorgeous look via Monday Bloom Link up!!!

  7. I love the colors on that topper and it looks terrific on you! Thanks for hosting a giveaway for it. Thank you as well for pointing out great alternatives to the "Flu Moo" for the physically or circumstantially challenged 😉

  8. I do hope I win! My favorite of their spring line is the Torija topper, although to be honest, I like almost everything they make!

  9. I love looking at the soft surroundings catalog. I first heard of them through your blog. Could wear anything in that catalog! I can only afford maybe one piece at a time but it is worth the investment since it would be a "go to" pice in my wardrobe. I love the last one, the cote azure tunic. It is beautiful! The topper you have on is gorgeous! It really brightens your face! Lovely!

  10. I love, love, love the topper you are wearing!!! My second favorite would be the Cote d Azur tunic. You look fab in that blue!! Thanks for keeping your blog up….I have no idea why there are not more like it….I do believe our age is getting to be a majority. LOL

  12. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog to say hello. I am now your newest follower. I would be tickled to win! Have a great week!

  13. I absolutely love the LUNCHING AT THE BISTRO look with the Torija Topper. And I have a confession to make I did not know what a TOPPER was until I read your blog post and saw the Soft Surroundings catalog.

  14. Pam I love the Solano Tunic with white jeans; too cute for summer! Soft Surrounding is a super line for women Fab over 50 for sure!

  19. You always look chic in your outfits and are definitely a strong voice for getting older with style!! I'm amazed at the flyer you showed in the last post. It looks like a joke in this day and age. Then again, there are a lot of clothes out there that are pretty hilarious.. To each their own, I guess. I think the Soft Surroundings styles are pretty and look comfortable. They look great on you, too.

  20. Thanks for introducing Soft Surroundings. I received a copy of the catalog and everything is yummy! The topper is so pretty and would be perfect for my upcoming trip to Plano to visit with family and hang out with my granddaughter.

  21. You look lovely in blue! I looked over the spring looks and I am in love with the Catherine topper over the lace cami. A great warm weather outfit. Thank you for the great pictures and the fun shopping trips!

  22. Om my goodness I am crazy for tunics!!! Truly love them 99 % of the time they are even long enough for me. what a great giveaway my friend. Count me in, ( you know I follow). Okay what an impossible task to ask us to chooses only one we like LOL I'll go with the Raja Tunic xox

  23. I like many of Soft Surroundings tunics, especially the 'Set Sail'…would love to win the blue one you are modeling, which looks great on you by the way!
