Hi, I’d like to welcome you to the Ageless Style Linkup. This month’s theme is: A Vacation Look. I chose this theme because, well, it’s Summer and this year, The Hubs and I are all about the mini vacation. So far we’ve been to Florida for a couple of weekend trips and we’ve visited a few small towns around Georgia for day trips. We’re trying to plan a big trip for next year but we’re not sure where we want to go…

We’ve hit the empty nest stage in our lives, so we’re trying to take full advantage of this phase by spending more quality time with each other. So if you have suggestions for couple trips and fun places to visit, we’re open to suggestions.

My style tends to be very boho, comfy casual. When we go on our weekend jaunts, our trips tend to involve me hopping in and out of the car very quickly on the side of the road to take pictures, so whatever I wear has to be able to handle all of that.

I’ve been looking for an embroidered top forever. So when I saw this one at Relics to Riches I just knew it had to come home with me. I adore the floral pattern and the bright colors, just fun. I also like that the tunic is versatile enough to be paired with leggings, a cute denim skirt, or shorts. Since I was actually going to work and not heading out with The Hubs, I decided to wear the top with a pair of jeans and sandals for a nice casual Friday look.

Love love love the embroidery on the back. Isn’t that a great little detail? Because of the embroidery I opted not to wear a necklace; I didn’t want to distract from the design. I did, however, wear a pair of bright yellow hoops and a couple of beaded bracelets.

I’ve also started experimenting with my makeup a bit more. I have to give all the credit for that to my Ipsy subscription. Before I started my subscription, I mostly stuck to neutrals and dark brown lipsticks. Now I’m wearing eye shadows in varying shades of blues, grays, greens, and purples and lipsticks in bold pinks, nudes, classic reds, and deep purples.  And I’m loving it.

Maybe my makeup experiments will lead me to be a bit more daring with my outfits… Honestly, though, it’s just hard to get out of “Mom Mode” after twentysomething years of that being such a major part of my identity. I really am ready to step out of my comfort zone and glam sex it up a bit for The Hubs. I know he’d be happy.
