50 IS NOT OLD | SAILOR STRIPES AND EYELET TRIM | FASHION OVER 40The weekend is here and I can’t wait to see what it will bring. I think that I am going to get to babysit a little bit Saturday night and that is always fun and scary at the same time. Lol! I managed to raise three perfectly good human beings but I swear that I can’t remember how. Lol! Emersyn is a breeze to watch. She can amuse herself with coloring, play-doh, or playing with her Barbie house. Little man is going to be the concern. He has never stayed with me much since he has been born and I worry about him having a fit while Joseph and Kayla go out on a date night.
50 IS NOT OLD | SAILOR STRIPES AND EYELET TRIM | FASHION OVER 40I can remember once when Emersyn was little and she was staying with me. She must have been cutting teeth or something because you couldn’t do anything to calm her down. She screamed and I rocked and sung and bounced and anything else that I could do but nothing really helped. Joseph and Kayla were over 2 hours away so I just had to tough it out but I was sure glad to see them walk back through the door that night. Lol! Little man is a whole lot easier going that Emersyn ever was. He is normally very content and hardly ever cries. I sure hope that he stays like that tonight. Lol! 50 IS NOT OLD | SAILOR STRIPES AND EYELET TRIM | FASHION OVER 40This cute striped top with eyelet trim reminds me of a sailor. If you like nautical type clothing then you will love this. This is a cotton blend and is hand wash and line dry. I am wearing a size large (the size that I normally wear) and it fits me fine. I think that I liked the neckline better than anything else about the top, it is so unique and flattering. This is a lightweight top and perfect for the chilly days of spring with its long sleeves. I got this from the Trunk Club shipment just the other day. I love this service because I don’t get a lot of opportunities to go shopping but also because I can take pictures of the clothing even if I decide not to keep it. This is my version of bloggers who go to the dressing rooms in stores and take pictures of what they are trying on. Lol! Want to guess if I kept or returned the top??? 50 IS NOT OLD | SAILOR STRIPES AND EYELET TRIM | FASHION OVER 40 I just wanted to show you the eyelet trim up close so that you can see the fabric. You can also see that I need a manicure. Lol! Some of you have asked about my nail polish and what the color is. They are actually a hologram and when I move they change color, kind of like a cat-eye color. 50 IS NOT OLD | SAILOR STRIPES AND EYELET TRIM | FASHION OVER 40It is Saturday, so I don’t have any jewelry on except for this pair of earrings. These are the Aspen earrings from Plunder Design. They are a light blue filigree design that has an antiquing over them and they are a two-inch drop. These are only 8.00 so be sure to stock up on lots of these type earrings for gifts for teachers, etc. Go to plunderdesign.com/taniastephens to place an order and pick a party with my name on it. 50 IS NOT OLD | SAILOR STRIPES AND EYELET TRIM | FASHION OVER 40These straight leg raw hem jeans are by NYDJ. The raw hem is on-trend this year and this pair has a wider leg than the ones that I have tried on before. They actually fit very nice and are true to size. They have a lift-tuck technology that flattens the tummy and lifts the rear. Who doesn’t want that? Lol! I bought some raw hem jeans the other day from Old Navy that I really like to and I am going to link to those below. These are not very expensive and allows you to have a trendy item without breaking the bank.


50 IS NOT OLD | SAILOR STRIPES AND EYELET TRIM | FASHION OVER 40I don’t wear a lot of sneakers. I have never worn sneakers so they are not something that I normally gravitate toward. The Chuck Norris converse trend has been going for several years and now they are ramping it up a notch or two. It is all about embellishments this year. You will start to see more and more sneakers that have embroidery and embellished add-ons. Look at these I found today online, they are kind of cute.

50 IS NOT OLD | SAILOR STRIPES AND EYELET TRIM | FASHION OVER 40I hope you have a fantastic Saturday. Vote whether you think that I kept the top or not and I will give away a free piece of Plunder to one of the winning guesses. I can’t wait to see how well you gurls know me. Lol!

    I guess you returned since it has to be hand washed!

  6. I don’t think you kept the shirt. Although I think you could wear anything and make it look cute!

  7. Ann Claire says:

    I think you kept the top. So cute with the eyelet trim. Let me know where to buy the Chuck Norrs sneakers! Lol

  8. Glenda Gordon says:

    The top is really cute, but I think you sent it back. It looks fine, but I think ir may have been a little large for you. Have fun babysitting your precious grandbabies tonight!

  9. Sondra Koons says:

    I think you kept the top because of the cute neckline and lace trim around the bottom. You always look for the ‘unexpected’ in an outfit. The jeans…..I’m not so crazy about. I love the frayed hem look and have two pair myself but not a fan of the wider leg at all. Mine are a narrower leg but not skinny. To me, that is a much more flattering look. Good luck baby sitting! 🙂
