We still aren't going out much but did manage to get out to a local winery with our son and daughter in law for Father's Day. They are such good cooks. Lauren prepared a fabulous picnic and we had a wonderful time. I was going to post a picture but I wore an all linen outfit and it was windy. I looked like I just got out of bed and forgot to comb my hair. Note to self up your fashion and hair game a bit. Let's take a look at Over 50 Fashion and Picnic Menu. Lauren made ...

How to Stay Stylish in a Heatwave
As promised I am going to share How to Stay Stylish in a Heatwave. I just spent four blistering days in the Atlanta Heat. I don't wear shorts or short skirts, so how did I stay cool? Can you say linen? Yep, loose-fitting clothes (primarily linen with a few very lightweight cotton pieces thrown in) saved my life.
