50 IS NOT OLD | FACE FRAMING DETAILS | FASHION OVER 40 I have been getting a lot of questions from you about what to pack on vacations. My short and sweet answer is….. dresses. Almost everything that I packed was a dress because that makes my choice easier and also because there is less to pack. The key is to pack dresses that can serve double duty and also that are easy care. Meaning, I don’t want to do a lot of ironing while I am on vacation. 50 IS NOT OLD | FACE FRAMING DETAILS | FASHION OVER 40 This adorable turquoise dress is courtesy of Purple Poppy.  The reason that I found this dress so appealing, besides the obvious cuteness factor, is that this dress can take on several roles. I wore this to a business presentation this morning and it was very appropriate for that venue. This dress would also be great for an outdoor wedding or event this summer. I even used this as my bathing suit coverup once we went to the pool and it looked adorable with my flip-flops. 50 IS NOT OLD | FACE FRAMING DETAILS | FASHION OVER 40 You can see the dress hangs straight and doesn’t cling to the areas that you want to conceal. It is made of 95% cotton and 5% spandex which gives it a small amount of stretch. I hate when I go to sit and my dress won’t give at all, I end up having to raise up and adjust to keep from choking myself. I love the turquoise color, blue looks great with my eyes, but the dress also comes in Navy and Hot Pink.  50 IS NOT OLD | FACE FRAMING DETAILS | FASHION OVER 40 Here is a close-up of the neckline detail. This bright white detail will bring the eyes upward and helps to frame your beautiful face. The deep V-neckline is flattering and helps to elongate your neck. I know that you keep hearing me say that and the reason is that it is true!!! 50 IS NOT OLD | FACE FRAMING DETAILS | FASHION OVER 40 Joe and I went on a luncheon date and the dress was perfect for that. He gave this dress high praise and you know how picky he is. I love this dress but it is not the only dress that I brought with me from Purple Poppy. I wore this dress on Tuesday to a business presentation and I am wearing this dress tonight to a huge After Party.

I love my items that I have gotten from the Purple Poppy.  They have been exceptional quality and everything is so nice. Be sure to tell Erin that Tania sent you to see her. She is so sweet and nice.

    Yep. Dresses. I live in an unbearably hot climate- Phoenix area and I wear dresses from April-October. So much cooler and looks so much more polished than shorts. I actually hate shorts. Hard to find the right style and fit. Plus, when it is 110+ they just feel hot and constricting. Your choices look great! Enjoy your days in Cancun ?

  5. I’m anxious to see some fashion with the new Plunder line. At first glance I’m not seeing anything much that jumps out at me. Are you going to tackle that after your return? I bought quite a bit from the old line only because of the way you styled it. It looks like you’re having a a great time. You obviously work hard and deserve it.

    I don’t know how you always have everything matching on vacation w all the extra shoes, scarves, jewelry you have to pack but you do! That outfit is very cute and I adore the hot pink ruffle dress! You have managed to always look put together and amazing even on the beach! Now next week when I’m on the beach in Florida I’m sure Ill look windblown and be wearing shorts!

    Please clarify for your followers……you “won” the trip to Cancun ……in a raffle? a doorprize drawing? When I was working in sales, I “earned” trips based on my sales. Your chances of earning a trip are far greater than winning one!! Congratulations on earning your trip!!

  13. I haven’t worn a dress since a wedding in 1991 and before that it was 1970 as we were forced to wear dresses to school no matter the weather in the 1960’s until dress code for girls in public school was changed by the times. You look good, my legs are a pasty white ( orange and streaky with tanner) and since nylons went the way of the dinosaur I doubt I will ever wear a shorter dress again.

    All three dresses are great! Thank you for the advice to take dresses on vacation or travel. I always default to jeans, so I appreciate the presentation of the alternative.

  17. I agree that dresses are fun on vacation. Love the colors in the dress you wore Tuesday; that would make a great dress to wear to graduations coming up. I see you even have Joe doing the “half tuck” 😉 !! Enjoy your last couple of days.
