&#8230;I have the cardigan and suede flats, I can buy the striped tank and I have lots of gray corduroy to make the pants. I&#8217;ll use the Burda pattern I used for Project MyWay #17&#8211;Black Velvet Jeans, I&#8217;ll have to taper the legs. [...]]]></description>

Many of you have visited my new blog, What to Wear Over 40. One of the reasons Istarted composing outfits for over 40s is because I searched the web for wardrobe ideas for myself and all I found was a lot of outdated advice on how to dress after 40.  I wanted some ideas! Some [...]]]></description>

Home again; home again…I’m so glad that trip is behind me. All went exceptionally well and I’m on the fast track to recovery.
 
In India, I had visions of spring fashions in my head and I’m starting to sort out where I want to begin; more on that in the next few days.

Ralphie baby. My relationship with Ralph Lauren has come full circle. In my 20’s I was a RL girl—all cashmere, velvet and luxurious woolens. That was B.C.

		<description><![CDATA[This is a frustrating subject because in our youth centered society, we are flooded with images of young women. Even when older women are in the public eye, most are trying to look years younger than they are which, in my opinion, looks ridiculous.

I just found the blog, Of A Certain Age and I think it&#8217;s going to become one of my favorites. The post on trading sweats for wrap tops and yoga pants really hit home.

I have a love/hate relationship with shoes and boots. I won&#8217;t buy shoes or boots unless I love them and they have to pass rigorous scrutiny to be loved. They must be:
