So many people google “Dress For Your Skin Tone Chart”. Do you know the best colors for your skin tone? Here’s a big one that most people don’t know. White vs ivory. I occasionally wear ivory, but it has to be very specific (interesting texture, cool graphic tee, etc.) But I definitely look better in white! Dress For Your Skin Tone Chart Why It’s Critical I recently did a presentation on dressing and feeling your best. When I asked the audience how many people knew their best colors, only a few hands shot up. This surprised me so much because I truly thought this was common knowledge! The fi ..read more

I discovered Tibi a year ago and have since become obsessed. I promise to write full reviews soon, but first, the Tibi Tuck jeans. Because they are that good! I’ve tried almost every style of denim there is and very little surprises me anymore. But the Tibi Tuck jeans change all that! I range from 27-28 in most jeans, and this pair I am wearing the 27 because they do run a little large. A lot of people who have tried them also agree, but it depends on your body type and how loose you want them to be. Crafted from Japanese stone washed denim, the Tuck Jean is our newest style, featuring a scul ..read more

I recently bought the Mother Spinner jeans in Rollin’ Around. These will be one of the few pairs I buy this year. I donated or sold a lot of my old denim so I’m down to a very short list (only my favorites I wear on the regular). After looking forever and trying on way too many pairs, this pair of MOTHER Spinner Jeans – Destroyed High Waist Wide Leg came home with me. Why do I love them? While I’m not big into trendy, this pair actually fills the hole of three current trends (all in one pair). 1. Wide Leg. Wide leg are my most worn denim so this is a no brainer. These are wide without being “t ..read more

Not that long ago, I was using Trader Joe’s hair products and thinking there was no difference. How wrong I was! My Davines hair products review includes all my favorites. Davines Hair Products Review First things first, Davines hair products contain NO parabens, NO Sulfates, and all are safe for color-treated hair. As someone who spends time and money on my hair (I get my color touched up every six weeks, trimmed every 12), I want to do everything to keep it looking salon-styled. I used to buy cheaper products but they weren’t kind to my hair. Zero regrets switching to the good stuff! I love ..read more

The mom and daughter relationship can be complex but also the best thing ever. I recently considered quitting the blog. I wasn’t sure how helpful it was and let’s face it, it can be hard in the blogging space when there are so many others. But my girl encouraged me to continue saying how proud she was of me, and that made it all worth it. We’ve decided to start doing photo shoots more often (because we love it) and she’s also going to drop in as a guest blogger sometimes (look for her Shark vs Dyson review coming soon!) The Early Years Mom and Daughter Relationship I always knew I wan ..read more

When I say best stocking stuffers for her, I’m really talking about best stocking stuffers for me. Yes, I’ll admit it, I stuff my own stocking. Nothing against my husband, but I’d be telling him what I want anyway, so I just cut out the middle man. Trust me, everyone is happier this way. Best Stocking Stuffers For Her Travel Jewelry Box my round jewelry case (on 25% sale) This is one of the things I didn’t know I needed until I had it. Now I can’t travel without it. No more leaving my jewelry on the counter of wherever I’m staying. I also pack this in my carry-on bag with extra jewelry for my ..read more

I’ve done a few Clare V bag reviews over the years, but with the Black Friday Sales 2023 happening right now, I thought this deserved it’s own post. Clare V Bag Reviews Why I Love Them I’ve been wearing Clare V bags for years. I do have some special designer bags, but more often than not, I reach for my Clare V bags first. One. Variety. I love the styles, colors, and patterns of Clare V bags. I can almost always find something that is the perfect accessory to my outfits. And especially because I wear a lot of basics and neutrals, sometimes that pop of pattern in a bag is all you need. Two. F ..read more

I really thought I was done shopping for the year (aside from Christmas) but the sales are so good this year. Here’s all my top Black Friday 2023 Sales. My number one rule – if I didn’t want it full price, I won’t buy it on sale. The worst thing people can do is fall under panic buying. Reformation Black Friday 2023 Sales Okay one of my all-time favorite stores, Reformation just announced 25% off everything. I’m dying a little. There’s a local store that I stop in every time I’m at the mall. I love so much of their stuff, but am only including things I’ve actually tried or have! My Holiday Top ..read more

My take on style for women over 50 might not be quite what you are expecting, but I hope it’s helpful, nonetheless! During a recent Trader Joe’s visit, a cute young woman (everyone’s younger than me these days) came up to me and said “I hope this isn’t weird, but I think you look so cute”. Um no, not weird at all, and thank you! Let’s just say that little comment made my entire night! 50 – Then and Now Style For Women Over 50 I recently read an article that the actors in The Golden Girls were between 50 and 55 in their first year of the series. I remember watching it with my mom (I was 13) an ..read more
