LEOPARD, CHEETAH, AND FUR. OH MY!
I am happy to hear that many of you were like me yesterday. I shared that I had been picked as a top blogger by Southern Homes and they were having a vote by readers to see who was the top blogger. That was wonderful, except that it was in the “Senior” category. WHAT??? Don’t get me wrong, I guess I am technically a senior but I don’t feel like I act or dress like one. But then again, exactly when are you considered a senior? Who is even supposed to decide when you are a senior? Does it have to do with social security or when you start receiving those AARP notices in the mail?
When I saw that there were even a few bloggers listed who were in their 40’s I didn’t feel so bad. Several of you commented that you were surprised at the category saying that you didn’t consider yourself or me a senior. I even had a couple private message me laughing at the thought. I might not have even told you (I am sometimes vain) about the contest but, heck, I am competitive and I hate to lose even if it is in a category I don’t want to be in. Lol!!! Go (HERE) to vote. Hahaha!
Leopard/Cheetah print and fur are what all the seniors are wearing these days! Lol! I can never get is straight if this is leopard or cheetah but I think you get the idea. The last time I wore this Joe told me I reminded him of Phyllis Diller. Okay, maybe I do belong in the senior category after all. Lol! Christian Calendio is the brand name of this top. I wish that this top wasn’t so high-necked, it is not a flattering style on me. I do love the tunic style of the top, it doesn’t cling to areas I don’t want to be highlighted.
The Vivi necklace is the shorter necklace with the little arrows and the longer necklace I have on is the Bella Rose. I love gold with the leopard print, it just seems to go better with it. As you see, the earrings I have on match the Vivi necklace. They are the Michelle earrings and they have a 3″ drop.
WOWZA! How about this fur vest? I bought this when I was in Marietta at a little store on the square. It was the same store where I bought the snakeskin knee boots earlier in November. I love this vest because the fur is just down the lapels. A full vest of fur would make me look like a big bear. Lol! I looked for a label on the vest but the only thing I could find was a “G” on the inside.
Emersyn came over to visit me last night and ended up spending the night. She started getting sleepy before my blog was completely finished so I ended up forgetting to remind you to do your thankful “I” word. That was a hard one to be sure. I could only think of income and ice. Lol! Today’s letter is “J” and of course my first thought was Jesus!!! For a few more trivial answers I am going with java, job, and John Wayne movies. Hahaha!
I want to thank all of you who came to my live event last night. I had fun even though I was a nervous wreck. Lol! Today’s Pre-Black Friday special is all about the “GLOW.” Purchase the Microdermabrasion paste AND the Essentials Foaming Sunless Tanner as a Preferred Customer (PC) and I will send you a $15.00 refund check. The MD Paste is an oil-free, salt and sugar scrub that will make your face (or other body parts) feel smooth as silk. This will help you to get rid of dead skin cells which make your face look dull. Add water for a gentler scrub and use dry for an intense scrub. If you have really sensitive skin then I would recommend using it on your hands or feet or trying a small spot first. And, you will get a “safe” glow by using the foaming sunless tanner this winter.

Hubba! Hubba! (That’s from my Hubby) ❤️You! Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! The Lord’s blessings to everyone, too! ?
Okay, I am a Elder Advocate…and consider myself a fairly youthful 61 year old, with a Masters in Gerontology. I just want to say that I hope we can embrace our senior-hood, and give it the honor it deserves, as it represents the wisdom of our community. Being old rocks! That being said…staying attractive and fit also rocks! I love your style, Tania. Keep up the good work, and embrace the joys of living a life that contributes to the many generations to come, and empowers women in our age group…and to come. We have recently been told to no longer call older folks, seniors…or even elders….but now they’re older adults. come on!!! Being an elder is awesome!!
I had the same reaction. What? Senior blog? No way.
Cute – you’ve got my vote!
Voted! ❤ animal print you look amazing. I can’t wait to read your blog on email every morning with my coffee. Age is just a number. I’m 53 raising my grandkids age 5 and 4 that we adopted. At times I feel like a senior lol! My J word is Jesus, joy, justice.
Someone is missing the point of your blog. 50 is not OLD!
You look gorgeous Tania! I remember when I received my first mailing from AARP and thought why heck am I getting this, I’m not old ? well that was several years ago now and I can honestly say I am very secure and comfortable with my age today.
I am oh so very thankful for JESUS!
Absolutely love the outfit, I want that that vest, so now I’m on a mission to find me one, No No No we are NOT seniors! Girl you got it going on!
Happy Thanksgiving ?? ?
