Today’s News for women over 50
Happy Wednesday, ladies! Welcome to Today’s News for Women over 50.
This is a weekly post featuring today’s lifestyle news for women…and has nothing to do with the election results in America.
So rest assured this is light, informative…hopefully helpful lifestyle news that I curate together into one location just for you.
I look over a variety of media to find articles I believe may be of interest in the areas of recipes, home care, healthy living and fashion & beauty.
Readers have good to let me know the types of articles that may be helpful to them, so I often curate the news with that in mind.
Let’s forget about all other news…get a cozy spot…and read Today’s News for Women over 50.

For all your shopping, please use the links on my SHOPPING PAGE…thank you, thank you to all who shop this way to support the blog and keep me here.
fashion video – the color combos only look “rich instantly” if those colors work for you. Oh so silly…
Thanks for sharing your thoughts…
I would argue that is the simple, structured clothing and pared down accessories in the video that make you look “rich,” not the colors, though of course some conjure cultural associations (Nantucket, boating, sporting whites). I always enjoy style videos, and love to just stop and think about why something works or doesn’t, either for a specific goal or just a certain occasion or body type. I’ve been reading a bit more about the Blue Zone, and how, thanks to inaccurate records, the people might not be living as long as billed. Regardless, we all know that a healthy lifestyle contributes to our quality of life. Just checking in on the monkeys … are they down? 🙂
Loved the video soo many good ideas.
Wow how did u decorate, paint, etc your house soo fast!!
Love the round back french chairs. You like same trestle table I have!!
Gorgeous house!!
The new lights arrived yesterday and I really hope will be up by the end of the week. I am checking with the contractor today. If they go up, I will picture them in the Sunday post. I like that these videos do make us stop and think and question. Thanks for joining in, Linda.
Thanks Debra…I am not sure what pictures you are looking at though. I have not really shared recent ones of my home…the painting is on going this week. I plan to share when we are closer to being done…at least for now.
Jazzercise Judy is 80? Oh my! How I loved doing those videos! Thanks for pulling all these together!
I always look forward to your Wednesday blog. Thank you for your effort in this very informative selection today!
I’m enjoying your discovery of your new town as well. We recently moved to a new town in Arizona. I am looking forward to exploring all this area has to offer.
Thanks for the colour combinations video. I think black and white look great with grey hair. I’m also going to wear more navy and white with a nice little scarf.
Fun video. Lots of outfit ideas. And I love the statement, “Confidence is your best accessory. ” Thanks, Pam.
have fun with it, Carolyn. I am enjoying all of the new people I am meeting! Thank you for letting me know that you like Wednesdays!
Sounds like a good plan, Judy. I do love to get new ideas.
Confidence breeds contentment which always results in a beautiful smile…our number one best accessory.
I wear navy with white, cream and beige. I also wear pale blue with navy. My cool colors are what look good with my pale blonde turned white hair and fair skin. I think lovely warm greens look just as good on warm palette women. We need to know our color palette. Current health makes a huge difference in what kind of exercises we can safely do. I was very athletic a few years ago but approaching 80 I am legally disabled now and must be careful not to set my health even farther back.
Thanks for joining in, Sydney!
