Welcome to our monthly installment of Signature Style. Each month Sarah and I chat up our feelings on a particular trend or item. This month our friend Kim from Northern Cal Style is joining us. Have you noticed that dresses are all over the place this year? After spending over a year in yoga pants and or jeans, the idea of wearing a dress is maybe not such a bad thing. Just as we are craving color and pattern in our home decor and the grand millennial style is gaining speed, we are craving ...

Fashion Over 50 Folk Inspired
The folk-inspired fashion trend that began in 2020 seems to be alive and well this Spring. Nordstrom's senior fashion director Shannon Shafer describes it as “breezy dresses and blouses with delicate embroidery, paisley prints, and eyelet fabrics” Others coin the look prairie fashion. Folk Inspired or Prairie fashion can those of us over 50 wear it? Let's take a look at Fashion Over 50 Folk Inspired. Next Tuesday Sarah and I will be joined by our friend Kim from NorCal Style for our ...
Stylish Comfortable Shoes That Don’t Look Granny-Sandals
Finding a comfortable sandal often requires trial and error, blisters and foot cramps. Who has time for that? Let's take a look at some serious sandals that we can walk in all day. It takes a bit of research and patience but, we can have stylish comfortable shoes that don't look like we need to be hobbling around with a cane. I created this post two years ago meaning for it to be an annual affair. Now here I am two years later updating it. I want mine to be somewhat sleek, supportive, and as ...
Ageless Style- Susie Wright
I am so happy to be interviewing Susie from So Susie this month on Ageless Style. I feel so fortunate to be able to meet (albeit electronically) these amazing women. Each and every one of them has inspired me in some way and Susie is no exception. I feel if we were to meet in person we would be fast friends. She loves pasta, but tries not to eat it, tries to eat mostly healthy foods, doesn't really like to exercise, doesn't take supplements but knows she should, and never intended to model on ...

WHEN ALL THAT IS OLD IS NEW AGAIN While cleaning out the closet and reluctantly tossing all of my design magazines that I saved over the years, I came across this NY ...
Stylish Comfortable Shoes That Don’t Look Granny-Sneaks
I interviewed my friend Sarah for Ageless Style and she was instantly a big favorite, so we decided to team up for a monthly series Signature Style with Cindy and Sarah. We have a lot of fun since we live on two separate continents and are always in different seasons. Two years ago I did a series on comfortable shoes that don’t look granny. It was a very popular post that even got mentioned in the Washington Post. Thanks, Ann Oldenburg. I intended to update it every year but here we are two ...

Today I am joining Jennifer (from a Well Styled Life) and our friend Sandra (Apart from My Art) for our monthly fashion edit.

This year more than ever I am craving the freshness of spring and embracing color in my home and my wardrobe. There is something about color that can make one feel alive, carefree, and confident. Don’t be afraid to experiment a little. ...
Five Favorites-Roses H&M & More
Happy Sunday Everyone. I hope you are having a great weekend. If the sale of our house goes through, we will be moving into a cute two-bedroom rental that we own in Salinas until we figure out what we are doing. The climate there is a little chillier and a little foggier than it is here. There is a small courtyard garden in front and a smallish yard in back. It all needs to be redone after years of being rented. I plan to take you along that journey with me. Many of you often ask what are ...
