THE AGELESS STYLE LINKUP
Hi, welcome to the Ageless Style Linkup. The linkup runs the first Tuesday of each month and features 10 women over the age of 40 styling an outfit based on one theme, and, because we’re all so different, each theme interpretation is different. Each month, one of the co-hosts invites a guest co-host to join us for the linkup. Our goal is to show you that style is ageless…
This month’s theme is: “Festive Outerwear” and was chosen by Debbie of Fashion Fairy Dust. Our guest cohost is the always fabulous Sheela of Sheela Writes.
MY LOOK
OK, so I know I don’t exactly look festive or holiday-ish, but I like to keep things real around here. The Hubs and I don’t go to Christmas parties or anything like that. So I really don’t own any fancy clothes or outerwear, but I do own this oh-so-fabulous vintage embroidered coat.
I found the coat at Annie Laurie’s, an antique store that I used to visit every weekend when I lived in Missouri. This particular day, I happened to be out with my second oldest daughter and she encouraged me to try the coat on. I was hesitant because vintage pieces almost never fit me {people used to be incredibly tiny}.
Anyway, I tried it on and had to get it. I don’t wear it often, but when I do, I feel all artsy and creative.

Do you have a fancy coat? How do you keep warm when you have to dress up?
