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…
Style Imitating Art: Watermelons and Field Mice by Sin Saimdang
Hi! Welcome to another round of Style Imitating Art. I hope y’all had a good weekend. We did. We started decorating the house for Christmas, something we haven’t done since the kids moved out.

Fab Forties: Western Wear
When I was invited to join the Fab Forties I had no idea I’d be stretched so far out of my sartorial comfort zone. First, it was a goth look and now it’s Western Wear. Naturally, the first thing I did {after groaning} was hit up Pinterest for some inspiration. As you can tell, most…
Embroidered Round Neck Boho Top with Distressed Denim Shorts and Sandals
This look was totally stolen from inspired by my style sister, Heidi from Fashion Mama Pro.

How to Wear Boho in the Office
I’ve always worked in casual environments – business casual during the week and jeans on Fridays – therefore, my personal style was never really an issue. Now I work in a much more formal environment. We’re still business casual during the week, but since I’m now a member of the administration, I have to bump…

Baby Doll Top and Flare Leg Jeans
Hi, everyone! Hope y’all are having a great week so far. I am – I signed my offer letter for my new job as Director of Library Services at a local community college. I’m both excited and nervous — I’ve never been in charge of a library before. But I’m ready to take on the…
In the Press
Sometimes people write really cool stuff about me and my blog and I like to share… Heartfelt Role Model for Laurie Felt – A few years ago, I tried a pair of boots from a product line called Hot In Hollywood and I immediately fell in love. Then I tried a couple of other pieces…
