Over 50 New Jean Shapes for Spring
Hi Everyone. Jennifer and I are a little late for our Monthly Fashion Over 50 Edit but better late than never, right. Jennifer had the great idea to discuss new jeans shapes. As far as I can tell just about anything goes with jeans right now. Supposedly the skinny is out, but the stores apparently didn't get the memo. I spotted them everywhere. I am personally glad that they have gotten a little looser. I think it is flattering to more figures. That being said I cannot embrace the mom jean ...

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 ...
