50 Is Not Old| Red and YellowI have often wondered if red and yellow go together. I have seen mustard and ketchup together in my plate, and they seem to get along fine. However, I have never worn the two colors together. Is anybody else craving a hotdog right now? haha
50 Is Not Old| Red and YellowI am still unpacking from our vacation. I have finally gotten the suitcases unloaded and the clothes all washed. I will admit that the house is still a wreck, but I am making a little progress. I need a vacation to get over my vacation. Lol!
50 Is Not Old| Red and YellowThis cable knit sweater is one that I bought from Old Navy several years ago. I have never worn it much, because it is heavy and short. Since it is heavy, I think it makes me look bulky. Who wants to look bulky, other than football players? Here is a similar one that doesn’t look as bulky.50 Is Not Old| Red and YellowWhile I was shopping in Orlando, I bought this scarf from Express. The reason I bought the scarf was because of the yellow accents. They are subtle and a little hard to see, but I was wearing a pair of yellow capris, and it really looked great. Here is a scarf from Target that is a beautiful shade of green and yellow.50 Is Not Old| Red and YellowThese ankle length pants were purchased at GAP. I knew that I planned on wearing red this week, so these pants caught my eye. I like the fit, the length, and the color. I can see wearing these with navy, black and white, and even pink. What other colors would you wear with red? Here is a pair that is pretty similar. I have on a pair of flats that are at least 3 years old. They are by Kathy Von Zeeland, and I bought them at the OVC outlet. They are my go-to shoe for the summer, and I wear them a lot. They are starting to look a little worn though. 50 Is Not Old| Red and YellowI don’t have on a lot of jewelry. My Michael Kors watch, a pair of earrings by Chloe and Isabel, and a bracelet from Stella & Dot is all I put on. The scarf is the star of the show, so I let it shine. I debated back and forth on what purse I should carry. I was afraid the red in the pants and purse wouldn’t look good together. I ended up deciding on the Dooney & Bourke because I liked how it looked on my shoulder. Here is a similar one on Ebay.
50 Is Not Old| Red and YellowI think that all of you should wear red with me this week. It is not that hard, you can wear a red shirt, scarf, cardigan, necklace, shoes, or carry a red purse. Red is energizing and helps with confidence. It also stimulates the appetite, so stay away from the buffet. Haha

  1. I am checking out some of your older posts while watching basketball. Red and Yellow work, one of the local high schools have red/yellow for their school colors. I LOVE the chunky gold sweater, it looks cozy and warm. (

    I love red and yellow together. Gurl you are looking fabulous, have you lost weight? Hope you don’t mind me asking.

    1. Christine, I am THRILLED you asked. Haha I HAD lost some weight till we went on vacation and it somehow must have got packed in my luggage to make the trip back with me. I am working hard to send those 5 pounds back to Florida. Lol!

  3. Tania you inspire me daily. And also find myself asking “would Tania wear (or buy) this?”

  4. I think your red and yellow combo is cute. I’ve put red & yellow together before on occasion.

    Thank you for your focus on heart health. I understand the February focus is mostly on women and I’m wearing red almost all month, as much as I can. When my husband was 36, he had a quad bypass. Our youngest was 6 at the time. It was not anything I was ready for. He did not have a heart attack and was not anyone you would have thought had issues (nonsmoker, social drinker, athletic). It was congenital and it is by God’s grace that he did not die on a basketball court in high school or college. So, heart health is very close to our family. Our son is co-chair of the American Heart Association Bear Bryant Award dinner event and fund raises for AMA all year long. (Clemson’s Dabo Swinney won this year’s award, btw.) Since that surgery at 36, my now 53 year old husband is healthy. He’s had a few other procedures along the way. I thank God every day that he’s still here to irritate me, make me laugh, and take care of me.

    1. Thank the good Lord that your husband is now alive and well! I remember 20 or more years ago, I saw a Blondie cartoon where Blondie was so irritated because Dagwood was snoring every night and she couldn’t sleep. The next day she spoke to a friend who recently lost her husband. That night it shows her husband snoring, but it had turned to musical notes. They maybe irritating, but we sure don’t want to lose them???

  5. Ketchup ~n~ Mustard- love it! Stacia mentioned above about gravitating toward more bold colours as we, ahem, ‘ferment like fine wine’ (HA!) and I find that to be true too! I just bought a mustard sweater yesterday and was going to pair mine with a more neutral cami and bold spring floral scarf- I would never have gone that bright 10 yrs ago!
    Happy Fat Tuesday to all!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

    1. I love the “like fine wine” comment. Maybe that’s why some of my outfits look like I was drunk when I dressed. Lol

  6. Today is Mardi Gras and I’m meeting friends for a fun lunch. I find myself thinking “What would Tania wear?” …WWTW? So I found a bright purple shirt in my closet with black pants, silver jewelry, silver flats, and a great purple Coach purse…and we’re all wearing Mardi Gras beads. Of course I painted my nails last night with metallic purple, except for the index fingers are metallic green. Should be fun!!!

    1. I wonder if we can get a bracelet with WWTW made up? Hahaha

  7. I’ve never worn red and yellow together but it looks great on you! I love the color red it is my favorite color. You always brighten my day!

  8. Scarves are great for pulling different color combinations together!
