HOW TO USE A SCARF TO CHANGE THE LOOK OF ANY OUTFIT
When I was a small child we were involved in a car wreck and my father experienced a very badly broken leg. I can remember him having screws in his leg and him being on crutches. I also remember him being able to go all the way down to the floor with his leg sticking out in front of him and then he would be able to raise back up. That is crazy! Just try doing that and see how hard that is. The problem is that now he has a lot of pain with the leg, especially his ankle.
My father is not like me in the fact that he NEVER complains. You can tell that it is hurting him by watching him walk but he never says anything. I tried giving him Essential oils to rub on the leg for pain and he tried for several months but he never found any relief. Sooooo, here is my question to you. Have any of you ever used the CBD oil and what was your results? This is the latest, hottest pain treatment that I have been reading about. It is from the marijuana plant but is not supposed to have the THC drug in it. If you are not comfortable leaving a comment you can privately email me at fiftyisnotold@gmail.com. I just hate to see him in pain and I would love to find something that would help him if I can. Love you, Dad! I know he is reading this today. ?
Here is look number two from my t-shirt series. Once again I have on my plain navy v-neck t-shirt. This has short sleeves which makes it easy to wear alone or under a jacket, cardigan, etc. Even though I am wearing a navy t-shirt for all of my outfits, you can choose a t-shirt in the color of your choice. If you have a white one, a black one, or even a gray one you could do basically the very same thing. You can also choose whether you want a v-neck, round neck, or a crew neck. Fashion is about wearing what makes YOU feel good about yourself.
The color is hard to see on this post but the pants that I have on are the palest of pink. These are a pair of pixie pants from Old Navy that I have had for years. I don’t think they are faded, they were always this light color. Light pink seems like a summer color, and it is, but you can wear these all year long. I love pink and navy, brown, and gray together. When you wear those color combinations and fall/winter accessories you can extend you wearing seasons.
This accessory is very much a spring/summer accessory. I bought this tasseled scarf at Cato Fashions early this year. I love accessories because they can change the look of an outfit for a small amount of money. The scarf has vibrant colors in it as well as pastels. The pale pink color in it is why I chose to add this scarf. Because the scarf is such a statement piece, your eye is drawn to it and not to the top. People will not even think about you wearing the same top that you just wore last week. Lol!

This month I am focusing on helping my team and others achieve these same goals. I have started a group page on Facebook called, “What if? Is R+F right for you?” I am going to be going live on the page and talking about what Rodan + Fields is, how I make it work into my busy schedule, and seeing if it is right for you. Because I hear soooooo many people say, “but I don’t have a blog” I am inviting several of my R+F friends to come live on different days and tell how they got involved with R+F, why they got involved, and how it works for them and hopefully you can see that anyone can do this business. I would love for you to join me in this group, there is no obligation and I will not be contacting you if you do not ask me to. This is simply a learning group. I love what R+F has done for my skin, my confidence, and my finances and I would love to share that with all of you. Click here and request to join the group. I will be having giveaways in the group this month so don’t hesitate to join.

Tania, I use hemp oil (cbd) from Highland Pharms to help with sleep; it works well for that but I can’t vouch for it’s effectiveness relative to pain.
My husband uses CBD oil and he really likes it. He is a diabetic and gets neuropathy from it and it seems to help somewhat. Now, it’s not been a miracle worker and work immediately, but it has helped some. Make sure you get a good quality oil bc there are those out there that aren’t what they claim to be.
Hello Ladies. I use and distribute Zilis Ultracell Hemp Oil. It is a very high grade, highly researched oil that yields wonderful results for anxiety, pain, immune system support, insomnia, memory loss and more. It is organically sourced, water soluble and 85% absorbable. Please feel free to contact me if you want more information. It has truly been a “life changer” for many. nobleb1673@gmail.com
I LOVE the pop of color that the scarf adds to this outfit! Regarding the oils, there is a lot of research and testimonies from people who have amazing results. Your dad’s case is unique however and each person’s success will be different. I do know that you need to carefully explore the “claims” and the products, just as you do in using and promoting R+F. There are high quality CBD/ Hemp oils but there are also many that are not. I personally know people who have had amazing success with one brand, and not success with another. Not all Hemp Oils are created equal, just as any other product.
Sooooo colorful and fun!! I do love Cato and wish I had one close to me ?
Have an awesome day and enjoy retirement (but your really not as you do the blog which is a lot of work).
All the best,
Holly
My Dad suffers with back pain. I would love to know more about this oil. If you find out please pass on info. Pretty scarf. Enjoying this series.
It’s made from hemp plants, not marijuana- it doesn’t have the THC that causes psychoactive issues- but does show positive results as a cannabidiol for people & pets with a wide range of problems. Pain, anxiety, even some hyperactivity disorders. The quality of what you buy matters- there are a wide range of companies & I would caution you to be discerning. My daughter works for a wellness company & they have been bombarded with questions lately. If you’re interested in the names of reputable products of CBD, I am happy to email a contact for you to call/ email. As a nurse myself, I know that the reason for such uncertainty in the medical field addressing it- is like supplements, they are not regulated- so you need to trust the source. All vitamins/ supplements are not equal- but some are really cheap & people tend to choose based on price which- like with skincare, isn’t always a good idea.
As I noted in comment by Dad suffers from back pain and would love info on this oil. Can you point me in right direction?
Yes, I’m in WI- the business that sells reputable products & can give you an idea about the concentration/ dosing – https://apple-wellness.com
Check it out if you wish- call them, they do free shipping- but they will provide you with some education before you buy. My daughter works there & I feel confident referring you for advice. All the best!??
I like when you do a series of one piece of clothing or outfit worn different ways. I do have the CBD oil as I got it when it first came out(not sure I can mention on here what company mine is from but it is a reputable one) as I got it hoping it would help my hubby with his leg pain but I can see from reading the previous posts that I did not give it time to work. I would put it on him one day and he didn’t feel any difference so then I would quit using it on him. I’m thinking I need to mix up a spray bottle and have him use it every day and see if he begins to notice the difference. My biggest problem is not knowing how much of the oil to mix with the carrier oil. I will follow this thread and maybe learn something. I hope you can find something that gives your Dad some relief.
Love your outfit today. The scarf is stunning! I have already signed up for your emails and let her getting them and reading them every morning.
Love the scarf! Planning on going to Cato this week once our 15year old starts back to school tomorrow! I already subscribe to your emails! Love Ulta too!
