CRANBERRY IS A LOVELY SHADE OF RED

Whoa! My hair just keeps getting lighter and lighter. You might not have even noticed but I took out the large chunks of red this last time and just went with small streaks for an all over look. I told her to let the blonde be a little more prominent because summer would soon be here and I like a brighter look in the summer months. Every time I wash my hair it seems to be getting lighter. Joe loves my hair being blonde so at least he is happy. Lol!I’ve been letting my hair grow out a little also. I think this is a cycle I go through every winter and spring. Do you gurls do this too? It is like I just can’t be happy unless I am tweaking the color or the cut. Every once in a while I will go crazy and do a drastic cut or color but for the most part, I just do some mild tweaking. I have no idea why I like my hair longer in the summer months, you would think it would be the opposite. It just makes sense to have long hair in the winter to keep you warmer and short hair in the summer to keep you cooler. But not me, I like it exactly opposite. I think I must have a screw loose somewhere. I hope Joe is not reading this, he may start a list of where all those screws are. Hahaha!Maybe the hair is just looking lighter and brighter because of the cranberry colored sweater I have on today. I looked back on my blog to see when I wore this last and I think I liked it better then. You be the judge. Also, make sure you read that post because it talks about my strange pet. Do any of you remember reading about Pierre?

I am still wearing my BELIEVE necklace. I had a reader ask me if I was singing, “Don’t stop believing” when I was wearing this necklace. Now I think of that every time I put it on. Lol! That necklace came from Marietta, Georgia but you can find similar ones on Amazon. My longer necklace is the Joey from Plunder. I really like this necklace. It has a little sparkle to it but it is not over the top. Plus, you know I love to feel the tassels so I sit around and play with them a lot. Lol! I have on a few Alex and Ani bangles and a couple by Plunder called the Lindy.The other two bangles are the Hugo and the Kylie. The Hugo is clear and the Kylie is cranberry colored. A true red bangle is available now under the specials tab for Valentine’s Day. It is called the Candy. Just tell your husband you want Candy for Valentine’s Day. Lol!!! While I am thinking about it, you need to be sure to check out TWENTY SOMETHING FASHION today. For those of you who don’t know this is my DIL, (aka Emersyn’s mommy) and she is doing a post today for 7 Charming Sisters. She showed me the jewelry she got and it is gorgeous. This is the first time that she has posted in a while, so please show her some love! ❤️My purse and my shoes match. Some say that is a no-no and others think that is the perfect way to dress. I can take it or leave it. Today I decided to take it. Haha! The purse is one that I bought last year at the overstock store in town and it is by Aimee Kestenberg. I don’t carry it a lot because it is on the small side for me. I have to carry at least 15 pounds of items with me each day or I feel naked.

My dark gray flats are by Sole Society. The t-strap and the studs are what make these shoes stand out. I wore these shoes with bright coral the last time and with navy here. They are pretty versatile and can be worn with a lot of different colors. The light gray or silver pants are by DKNY and I probably bought them at TJ Maxx. It was a little weird to wear a sweater and ankle pants at the same time. The sweater looks heavy but it is actually lightweight and has lots of open spots. I put a cranberry colored camisole under the sweater so it looks like a solid color. Here is a jewelry tip, if you have problems with your necklaces falling between the “girls” then add a camisole or tank top under your top. The necklaces won’t lay in the middle when you do that. Try it and let me know if it works.NOW, I want to tell you a little something about Plunder Design. It is a wonderful, inspirational company. They have great jewelry that is hypoallergenic and nickel-free. Plunder is having a business opportunity drive in January. Joining Plunder is 99.00 and you normally receive 10 pieces of jewelry BUT this month they are adding 3 more pieces to the signup kit. When you think of it, 99.00 is not a huge amount of money for starting your own business but I want to make it even easier. If you join Plunder with me, I will offer to pay half of your kit back to you. If you are interested, then email me for the details at regarding this incentive at fiftyisnotold@gmail.com.

For those new to my blog, let me tell you why I am a part of Rodan and Fields. AGE SPOTS!!! I hate them, expecially when they are on my face. I started R & F to try to get rid of the nasty reminders of my careless suntanning youth. After the first month I could start to tell a difference and by month two I knew I would be signing up. I only signed up to get the discount and I never meant to sell R & F. HOWEVER, you gurls kept telling me that I was glowing. What was I doing different? So, I decided not to keep the information all to myself and I now share my journey with you. Joining Rodan and Fields has three levels you can join at. If you join me in my business with at least the 395.00 kit, I will also offer to reimburse you half of your kit back to you. You could start a business and only have 200.00 invested, email me for the special details at fiftyisnotold@gmail.com Since Plunder decided to give an incentive to those signing up this month, I will give one for R & F too. For those of you who only want to signup to get the discount, if you signup with the 395.00 kit then I will refund you 50.00, the 695.00 kit will get you a 75.00 refund, and the 995.00 kit will get you a 100.00 refund. I have a goal of signing up one new consultant a month and I hope that is you.

Part of my 2017 goals is to grow my subscriber list on the blog. If you are not a subscriber PLEASE take the time to sign. Also, if you would like to share my posts on Facebook or Twitter, I would appreciate that. It helps get my blog out to more people, and I am sure you just want to spread the entertaining sayings I have. Lol!
