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: “Puffer Vest” and was chosen by Jodie from Jodie’s Touch of Style. Scroll to the bottom of the post to meet our guest cohost, Lana, from My New Happy. Then make sure you visit my cohosts to see how they styled their puffer vests.
MY LOOK
So, uuuuum, notice anything different? Yep, it’s the hair. I tried to go blonde but I got nervous half way through the process and washed the dye out. I think I may just let it grow out. I usually go burgundy {Féria Cherry Cola}, so this is a big change for me. Part of me thinks I should do it again and leave the dye in a bit longer, but the other part of me is like just leave it and let it grow out. Funky hair colors don’t bother me, so…
The Hubs bought this puffer vest for me during a trip to Branson, Missouri. I remember it being so very cold and this was the only thing we could find by way of a jacket. In the end, I think I came out a winner because this puffer vest is everything.
l wasn’t really sure how I was going to style it. Then I decided to go “old school Mom blogger” and it worked. My style is boho, so this is very “off brand” for me. Again, I’m comfortable and this was an easy outfit for me to wear while running errands with The Hubs.
Yeah, I think Old School Blogger Mom is a style I can embrace.
