50 Is Not Old | Printed LeggingsFirst off, I want to thank all of you who participated in my first Wednesday’s Wardrobe link-up. It was a complete success!!! My only goal was to have it actually work, the fact that several of you joined, is just icing on the cake. If you looked at the post yesterday, you still might want to check back periodically through the week. The link-up will be open till next Tuesday. So, more bloggers might still join in. I will send out a few invitations in the coming week, and hopefully we will have more participation next week.50 Is Not Old | Printed LeggingsI think I need to tweak the link-up, I want it to show “everyone” on my front page. I don’t want you having to click on the frog-icon to go to a link-up page. I have a week to figure out how to change that. If anyone knows the answer, please tell me. 50 Is Not Old | Printed Leggings

I am thrilled to see the sun and warmer weather has returned. This outfit was one that I wore last week on my trip to Tennessee. I will always pick something comfortable when I have a long drive in front of me. You can’t get much more comfortable than leggings. 50 Is Not Old | Printed LeggingsMy cute lace top is from Cato’s and it is at least a year or two old. I like the frilly features of the top, but the arm holes are way too big. Since I have on a cardigan, you can’t see that, plus I also have on a white camisole underneath.

White Top: Lace | Talbots (misses, petites, plus) | JC Penny50 Is Not Old | Printed LeggingsI told you these printed leggings were not for the faint of heart. I bought these in November at Cato’s. I have no idea why they were on the shelf in November, but I bought them because I knew I would eventually wear them. I have tried them on at least twice before, but they just never looked right. Did I just hear someone say they still don’t look right? Lol! These leggings are not my first crazy pair that I have worn, remember these?

Leggings: Reptile | Floral | Camo | Plus50 Is Not Old | Printed LeggingsThe longer length cardigan is older as well, and it is by Old Navy. Come on gurls, everybody needs a navy cardigan or jacket. Navy is so versatile, it goes with anything and everything. You can see this one is long enough to cover the tush area. YOU’RE WELCOME! Lol!

Navy Cardigan: Long & Linen | Plus | Duster50 Is Not Old | Printed LeggingsI just had to show you an up-close picture of my hair. I tried to style it in the “beach wave” style. Some of you have asked about the products I use in my hair. I use Pureology Perfect 4 Platinum in a shampoo and conditioner, and I use Big Sexy hairspray. That is it, nothing else. For this look I used my straightener and twirled it round. I can do the one side much better than the other. Either way, it just takes practice.50 Is Not Old | Printed LeggingsHave you noticed the beautiful necklace I have on? It is so cute. On my way to Tennessee we stopped at a couple shops, I know shocking, and I had three different people walk up to me to compliment me on the necklace. It is by Plunder Designs. I called my BFF, Bertha, to see if she had her Plunder sales page up and going yet, but she said it would be tomorrow before it is ready. I’ll link to that tomorrow for you, if you don’t already know someone who sells Plunder.

Do you follow me on FaceBook? If not, you will want to do that today. Tomorrow I am starting a FaceBook only giveaway for a $30.00 gift certificate to Plunder Designs. The rules will be that you like my Facebook page, and share the giveaway post. Then you will need to leave a comment that the post was shared. Leave the comment on my FaceBook giveaway page so I know you shared the post. Sometimes the shared portion does not show everybody, and I would hate for you to miss out. The giveaway will stay open till next Tuesday. I will announce the winner on my Wednesday’s Wardrobe post.

And now that I know you can leave comments (that is the most I have EVER had) I will be expecting them from you daily. Hahaha?

  1. Love the beach wave hair! I noticed it before I noticed the outfit. Your hair look really really thick, which I envy. Have a great day!

  2. Love the leggings!!! You are rocking them!
    I live in leggings as mich as possible. There are easy and so many outfits can be made from one pair of leggings.

  3. I love the leggings. I too would like to see how you organize your closet. A friend of mine turned a small bedroom into her closet. It was great!

  4. I am a big fan of your blog, but it occurs to me…do you have a GIGANTIC closet?

    1. Haha! The answer is simply, YES. I do love clothing, and I keep items for years and years. I have sweaters and tops that are over 30 years old.

  5. Outfit looks very comfy and of course adorable. Hair is a fun change. May be a odd question but how do you use the hairspray. Strickly on top or underneath for lift etc? Is it a stiff feel? Have a great day?

    1. I usually use the hairspray just on top, although I sometimes will hold be bangs up off my face and spray under those. That will help keep them from falling in your eyes. I don’t find the hairspray stiff at all, but it really holds well.

      1. Thanks. I’ll try that product. Your right about navy, it’s a great go to. Wanted to say that I never thought of wearing distressed jeans (at 61 I thought too old, wouldn’t like). But seeing you style them I thought why not. Got my FIRST pair yesterday. Love them. Thanks for styling them – it encouraged me.

  6. I love the leggings on you!!! You have the legs for them. Also, love the print. The whole outfit is so put together,that is just what you do so well. Love the necklace and can’t wait to see the Plunder line.

  7. Gorgeous outfit …love the hair stunning ???

  8. The leggings looks great on you! I van explaine to you van change the linkup. When you copied your code for the linkup(you need to have the New code) you put your post in text, html ,mode . Then you put the code in your post and publish it in html. Then it should work. If you got questions, I ll be happy to andere them!

    1. How do you get the “new” code. I just bought inlinkz the night before, so I would have thought it WAS the new code.

  9. Christine says:

    I bought 3 pair of printed leggins but not the ones that look like stripes around your legs, more overall print. I wear mine with black boots, really like them that way. Navy is always my go to color !

  10. What is your secret to staying so thin? And you look gorgeous by the way. ALWAYS!

    1. Robin, I am really good at camouflage. Lol! The cardigan helps to take pounds (visually) off your sides, making you appear thinner. PLUS, I have learned a few tricks about how to pose for a picture since I started blogging.
