CELEBRATING 100 YEARS
The trip to Tennessee was LONG. Joe was soooo disappointed because he thought he was going to get to fly his airplane and the trip would have only taken an hour instead of 5 hours. However, the weather was not very cooperative and it wouldn’t clear up long enough for us to fly. Awwwww, I hated that so much. Lol!
The really bad thing about the weather moving in is that it has really done a number on me. I am so tight and tense and I have a headache that won’t go away. But, because I am dedicated I am still doing a post. I won’t swear that it will be the best post that I have ever done but it will be a post. Haha!
This picture was taken earlier this spring but I never got around to putting it on the blog. When I made it to Livingston I didn’t bring in my camera to get the newest photos off of it but this set was still on my computer. I mean, I have been saving this unique set of photos for just the right time. I have on the Addison earrings which have a 3″ drop and have a filigree design. The necklace was one that has already been discontinued. I have had a few people ask about my lashes. You know that they are long because of Lash Boost but I thought you might want to know that the mascara I use is HUGE by Stila. You can find it on Amazon or Ulta. This dress came from Cato Fashion’s but it is no longer in stock. I really love the colors and the pattern of the dress BUT I was really worried about the style of the dress. My stomach region is my largest area so I was afraid that the tight fit would really let that show. However, I was pleasantly surprised that the dress actually looked decent. 
I know this is a short post but as I said, I don’t feel that great. The good thing is that the weather is supposed to be cleared out by tonight and be good for the rest of the time that we are here. Tomorrow is the party for my grandfather who is turning 100 years old and I sure hope to feel better by then. Pa’s actual birthday is on Sunday but because I usually travel home on Sunday the party was planned to be held on Saturday. Who knew that an eclipse was going to coincide with the party and that I would be staying until Tuesday? I hope to have pictures for you all to see on the blog Monday so be sure to check back then. You won’t believe Pa is 100 because he doesn’t look a day over 80.
You know when you put a post on FaceBook you wait to see if you will get any “likes” or “hearts?” That is how I feel about my blog. Leaving a comment and pinning a picture to Pinterest is my equivalent to a “like.” If you share my post on FaceBook that is a “heart.” Show me some love, gurls!!!
The comment section is at the end of the post, so keep scrolling. I look forward to reading all the comments, they make my day. Be sure to follow me on Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook.

Very nice dress, love your blog and video’s. You have great knees, I think a shorter length would be better for you, an easy alteration. Thanks for bein so “out there” for all of us.
Absolutely love this dress . Very slenderizing. Not that I mean you need it, I just think it would make anyone look slender.
Love the dress and please enjoy the time with your family. You are greatly blessed. Savor every moment. Best wishes to you Pa. What a great testament. We need to know his secret. LOL
Whete did you get your shoes?? Would love to get some
Kathy, thanks so much for following my blog. I bought those shoes at TJ Maxx, they are Aerosoles.
Love the dress!
How blessed to have your grandfather with you and 100 years young at that! You look great. Agree, just a little shorter on the dress. Also, hope you don’t find it offensive, but I keep looking and looking at your pictures and thinking “Tania reminds me of someone?” I finally figured it out; Cristina Ferrare! She is a gorgeous lady and so are you. Enjoy your trip and feel better soon.
That dress is stunning, Tania!
Happy 100th Birthday to your Pa! What a miracle from God! Hope your daughter got in, safe and sound! Gosh, Kiddo, hope you’re feeling better ASAP!
Divine dress, but I think it should be a little shorter to show off your beautiful legs! Jus sayin’!
Have a blessed, safe and happy trip! Let the PARTY begin! ????
In my opinion your hair style is so flattering.
Hope you feel better soon! Have a great weekend.
Oh I do hope you feel better soon, Tania! I know what it’s like to have a miserable headache and feel yucky and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. That is so awesome that your Pa is turning 100!!! Give him a big “Happy Birthday” greeting from me! Thank you for letting me know what mascara you wear. Now that I have long lashes from using the R+F serum, I’m trying out different mascaras to show them off. ha Some of my lashes are so long they practically touch my eyebrows!! Isn’t that just too funny? Hope the headache leaves you and have a wonderful time celebrating with your family!!!
Headaches can be so draining. Hope you better soon. I love this dress and it looks so great on you. The shape of the dress would be so forgiving of anyone’s shape. Love your blog glad I found you on pinterest. I love that so many 50+ woman are dressing so stylishly and aren’t afraid to look their best. I’m 67 and shop with my 35 year old daughter and she is my biggest cheerleader for dressing “young”. Some of her friends have asked me to shop with their moms so can dress like me! Such a compliment. Have a great time at the birthday party for your grandfather
Enjoy your time with family. I love the dress. Did you try a dark blue shoe st all with it? I love the shoes you’re wearing but I think a navy shoe would look super cute. Love the blog!
Thanks for the tip on the lashes, Tania! As I get older my eyes seem to get smaller and I need all the help I can get!

I would enjoy your post much more if your OOTD were recent enough to purchase as your jewelry is.
My husband grandmother lived to be 105. She died just two years ago. She had nine children and more grandchildren than anyone I know.
I love your posts and your outfits. I have no idea how you make the time, but I’m glad you do! I travel a lot, so when I open my email and see your post it’s like getting a note from a friend! Keep up the good work!
Tania this dress looks awesome on you!
I have been following your posts for almost a year and I look forward to them everyday, but do not apologize for a short post. A pic of your outfit and a short update is better than not hearing from you… we don’t want you to get burned out. Hope you feel better soon and Happy Birthday to your grandfather!
Hope you feel better soon!
Beautiful Outfit ! Hope you feel better as the day goes on . Enjoy this very special family celebration for your Grandfather?
I hope you woke up feeling better today. Wishing your “Pa” the happiest of birthdays. Enjoy the time with family!
Oh yes, love this dress on you. 🙂
Happy Birthday Pa! Feel better Tania!??
Hope you’re feeling better and enjoy the celebration.
I lonthis dress! Very flattering and the colors are fantastic for spring and fall! Hope you’re feeling better soon and enjoy the celebration! That’s a real blessing to live a long life in good health!
Happy Birthday Pa! Wow, amazing! Hope you feel better soon Tania.
I love that you use fashion from Catos. An excellent place to buy trendy current styles that are popular for maybe one season at a reasonable price. I like to spend more money on clothes that have a timeless look. These I refer to as classic or timeless pieces. I am 63 but I love your style because when I copy your style designs I don’t feel dowdy but young and hip (well as hip as one can be at my age). Thank you for getting me into the colorful and fashionable world of 50+!
You look amazing! I am new to your blog and need fashion inspiration. You are so cute and fun. I look forward to each post! Have a fun day!
Love the dress and you look great in it! Enjoy the party, what a special celebration! Feel better and have fun!
I don’t normally wear dresses but love that dress. My problem area is my hips so I’m not sure if I could wear that dress.
I really like the dress, I do think it could be a smidge shorter. It would be even more flattering!
Have a wonderful time and a safe trip!
That is a rockin’ dress!!!!
Enjoy your trip and feel better.
Always enjoy your blog! You always look great, enjoy your party
Hope you feel better soon and that you have a good time in Tennessee. Your dress is wonderfull, I love Blue dresses!
Hope you feel better soon Tania ? love the dress the style and the colours are very flattering on you I love navy very classy
I hope you enjoy the 100 year celebration with your grandfather, what a blessing to be able to that.
I hope your head feels better and you are able to get some rest before the festivities. Enjoy!!
Nice dress, different and love the color.
Hope your headache lets up so you can enjoy the birthday celebrations. You look terrific in that dress – very flattering.
