30+ Style Collaboration: The Tutu

Happy  Hump Day all!

When I found out that the tutu was going to be the next 30+  Style Collaboration, I was like “no way Jose!”.  I’ve seen multiple bloggers looking wonderful rocking a tutu but I couldn’t see myself doing it.  I’ve accepted there are some trends that are just not for me (me and harem pants will NEVER mix!) and I had put  tutus in that category….until now.  As we all know, sometimes rising to a challenge helps us to grow as a person. Participating in this collaboration  helps me shatter the myth that women over 40 don’t have fun with fashion…yes we do! We like to be on trend just like everyone else!  Dont let that  “dressing your age”  crap stifle you and stop you from looking your absolute best.  Remember….STYLE HAS NO AGE OR SIZE!

Check out how the other bloggers in the 30+ Collaboration styled their tutus!

Christmas Dinner at ……

Happy Monday all!

With Christmas only two days away, what to wear is somewhat on our minds (wrapping all those gifts is probably first!).  If you’re stuck on what to wear, here are a few looks and some suggestions to hopefully help you out!

HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Home

Home is definitely where the heart is so being casual  is on the top of the list. If I were entertaining at home I would wear a comfortable pair of slacks instead of jeans.  Slacks are a great way to dress up a casual outfit without all the fuss.

 A Family Member’s Home

Whenever I’m invited to a relative’s home for the holidays, I always feel like I have to dress up.  Since I’m going to my cousin’s house for Christmas dinner, this is what I’ll be wearing.  If you’re like me, add a pop of color to make your dressy outfit fun and festive!

A Restaurant With Your Sweetie or Friends

I have a few friends who bunk tradition and go out to dinner on Christmas.  A LBD (little black dress) is a great option for your holiday dinner because its chic and timeless.  Instead of reaching for a blazer, opt for a  leather jacket to give your look some edge.
