WEARING A TWEED DRESS

Have any of you had one of your grown children come back home to live with you? I am loving having my daughter back home from Alaska, but there is an adjustment period coming. I want to treat her like a child still, but she is a grown woman. Joe wants to treat her like a grown woman, and she is still a child. Lol! She wants to act like a grown woman some of the time, but she still reverts to being a child some also. Joe now has to put on clothes when he walks through the house of the morning. LOL! We are also trying to agree on what the temperature needs to be set on. Remember that she has been used to the colder temperatures of Alaska and we sometimes keep the thermostat set on 73-74. But, the biggest compromise so far is what we are going to eat. She is vegan, and I am actually pretty good with that, but she also wants to be grain free, dairy free, and low-fat. Houston, we have a problem!!! I am not even sure where to start, but Joe and I need to start slowly. There is a website called, Oh She Glows, that has vegan recipes, and we are going to try some of those. I told her that she might have to order some of the food in though since our town does not have a wide variety of food options in our stores. If you have tried and true recipes, then please send them to fiftyisnotold@gmail.com so that I don’t starve. I may end up getting healthy and skinny and who wants that?? Hahaha! I love the colors in this sleeveless tweed dress by Charles Henry. It is vibrant and sedated all at the same time. I like the fringed hem, and it is the same around the arm openings. I didn’t feel like freezing and taking my jacket off to show you. Lol! You can go to the website if you are curious what it looks like. Haha! A sheath dress is a timeless look, and the tweed pattern looks awesome with this look. I am wearing a size large, so I would say that this fits true to size. It is dry clean only so be sure to consider that. I added my favorite Italy necklace to this look, and I think it looks fabulous! I love the crystal centers and the ivory petals on this necklace. I don’t even think that I put on any earrings for once. ? Go to my website to place an order and be sure to do lots and lots of Christmas shopping while you are there. These adorable dark-gray ankle boots are from Kathy Van Zeeland, and I bought them years ago at QVC. I loved the rhinestone embellishments on the heel for unique details. I think that ankle boots look great with a dress. What is your opinion?

Did you see the Black Velvet blazer that I wore yesterday? If not, then go and check it out right now. I’ll wait for you to get back. Lol! Today, I am styling the same style blazer but in a bright pink color. How many of you would pass on this blazer/jacket because you would be afraid that you would not get enough wear out of it? I have worn this blazer for years, and I keep finding ways to wear it. I think that I might show you several ways in the next few days. Be sure to check back and see my next look.

I have had several ladies message me wanting to know if I was going to have a Lash Boost special. Why, yes I am!!! This special is a crazy price and waaaaay below my cost, but I am still in the “playing Santa” mood. Take advantage of this while I am feeling all warm and tingly inside. Lol!Email me if you are interested in taking advantage of this special at fiftyisnotold@gmail.com
