A style blog based on a fifty-something Baby Boomer doing her best to age gracefully.
Here are all of my posts featuring my personal outfits and looks, plus style tips, and iconic women to inspire women over the age of 50 to be their most stylish self.
Happy New Year! And adios to 2023. Every January, I embrace the fresh start that the new month brings. This year, I’m only carrying forth the wisdom and strength I’ve gained. But first, before welcoming the new, I must go down Memory Lane to look at past intentions and where I deliberately spent my time.
Are you a fashion history lover looking for something to see and do this holiday season? If yes, you must visit the Brandywine area to see the Ann Lowe: African-American Couturier exhibition at Winterthur. It is sad that forty-two years after Ann Lowe’s death, the hidden figure’s talent receives this significant recognition. The Ann Lowe […]
We know things can get hectic as we enter the celebratory Christmas season. I intentionally plan annual relaxation at the Hershey Spa to escape the hustle and bustle.
I didn’t mind the freezing temperatures before the sun rose this morning to preview the 40th annual Christmas + Gift Show at the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex.

Every autumn, bright and vivid shades of the color wheel abound with the fall foliage. But have you noticed fashion’s colorfully pleasing pop of red trending this fall?
Do you remember the 21st night of September? If you are old enough, the song is one of Earth Wind & Fire’s hits from 1978. That song is one of my favorite from college. When my birthday rolls around every September, and when it’s the 21st night of September, it’s a reminder that fall is […]
It’s September 16, my annual sweet reservation at the Hershey Spa to celebrate my birthday with my daughter, Channing. For as long as I can remember, when September 16 rolls around, I spend a day luxuriating at the Spa at the Hotel Hershey. The Spa opened in 2001 and quickly expanded to accommodate the long […]
Our first significant travel north by northwest to the Canadian Rockies and beyond didn’t disappoint. The 2016 theme for my annual trip to the Philadelphia Flower Show: Explore America: 100 Years of National Parks. That show sparked my interest in exploring national parks in the United States and Canadian Rockies. For most of our vacations, […]
