5 Ways to Feel Confident In Your Own Skin

Three years and 885 posts later, I have learned so much about myself and my own style since beginning to blog. I have experimented; stepped out of my comfort zone;and internalized what style books and other blogs say.  I have learned to enjoy how other women dress while understanding that their style is not necessarily…

60 and Sizzling!!

60 and Sizzling!!

Well, it is finally here…nothing I could do to stop it…I am officially 60 years old! It doesn’t seem that long ago that I had a stereotype of a sixty year old woman in my head and an even more false idea of how that woman feels at 60.  I don’t look or feel like…

Reader Request: Where’d You Get Those Pants?

Reader Request: Where’d You Get Those Pants?

All things Pants…that is the current fashion headline and I am loving the options!  A reader asked me on Monday where I purchase my slim legs-ankle- length pants.  First, I want you to know that one of my wardrobe goals for the past six months has been to upgrade my pants. My old selections were…
