Today’s News for Women over 50
Happy Wednesday, ladies…and welcome to Today’s News for Women over 50!
In honor of Fiesta 2025 beginning this week in our previous home of San Antonio, my pictures for Today’s News for Women over 50 give a nod to the event.
Fiesta is always a fun, colorful time in San Antonio, and has been happening since 1891.

Gray Hair Trends was interesting and if they every make a gray hair Barbie I hope they plump her up a bit too!
Interesting selection today! Thank you!
LOL! I agree, Linda!
The video was quite informative and interesting as I love mixing old and new, different colors of wood and metal. It just feels more lived in and collected to me. Our home is only ten years old but has an older villa feel. I don’t have any real antique furniture but I have traditional dark wood pieces in our bedroom which I love. Blue green in all tones are throughout our home. Our walls in public facing rooms are SW Greek Villa which adds an old world depth to our home. Layers take time. Thank you for sharing this video. I liked her dress too!
Gray hair Barbie gave me a laugh. Even funnier is the “trend” of velcro rollers. Will the next thing be a return to panty girdles? LOL.
I think you and I have similar home decor tastes, Sydney! I love your old world depth walls.
With the hooks on them for the hose……LOL!
Not sure why Velcro rollers are so funny, Kathie? Lots of women have been using them for years. They work great for my fine, short hair. I put a few in on top for some lift and volume, letting them dry while I do my makeup. With little effort, I revive my style on the days I don’t wash it. It’s far less damaging than using hot tools every day. I would say Spanx are the modern version of girdles.
Love your post! Yes I also miss Fiesta, move away from San Antonio in 2016. Parades, people collecting medals, lots of food. It was always a great time. Very interesting about the gray hair, I let mine come in during the pandemic. Mine is part salt and pepper with some white streaks. All natural. Yes the texture changes.
Fiesta is such a great time to be in San Antonio…I do miss all of the fun. Thanks Linda!
