WEARING A GRAPHIC T-SHIRT OVER 40
Before I get to the fashion part of the blog, I thought I’d take a moment for the family part. (Do y’all get sick of me talking about my crazy family? What can I say, they give me a ton of material. lol)
My sister, the author, (see her book in the sidebar!) posted on Facebook about her short-story contest for kids and I wanted to give her a shout-out. She claims she knew she wanted to be an author way back in first grade, and now she tries hard to encourage young wanna-be writers.
The contest ends September 30th, so if you know of anyone in the age range, send them to her website for details!
What I didn’t tell you is that my VERY talented sister has a new book coming out soon called Hope In The Holler. You can check it out on Amazon and even pre-order it if you want. 
This t-shirt went with me to Florida when I went to the Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam to see Little Big Town, Luke Bryan, and Jason Aldean. I think this t-shirt is super cute and I love it with the white jeans. HOWEVER, it did not make it to any of the shows for a very good reason. This was an outdoor concert which was held in a huge field. It came a monsoon, a torrential downpour, the first show and by the time we were ready to leave there was mud everywhere. Some women had worn high heels and fancy shoes and the only way they could protect them was by wearing plastic grocery bags over their shoes. There was no way that I was going to wear white jeans to a mud pit. Lol!
As I was putting my lipstick on I dropped the applicator and got lip stain on my chest. I had to use makeup remover and scrub to get it off so that is why my chest is red. Lol! I thought about fixing it with photoshop but I kind of thought it was funny. Anyway, I didn’t put on a necklace but I did put on these extra cute leather Kalani maroon earrings. These earrings are real statement earrings but they are light as a feather. 
The Nona bracelet on the right is a wide leather cuff that comes with your monogram. It looks dark brown in the catalog but it is really a red/brown color. It is adjustable up to 8 inches. The black cuff is a special Pippa and is no longer available. The brown Pippa, however, is still available. I also have on my Key To Life Alex and Ani bracelet like the one I gave away last month. 
Leopard print shoes are great for updating a look. They are so in style that they take the simplest outfit and make it fashionable. This pair is from Isaac Mizrahi and I have had them for several years. I recently ordered my a pair of Leopard ankle boots and I hope they fit and are as cute as they look online. I’ll let you know when I get them.
You know how I feel about white jeans! They are a staple that should be in every wardrobe. You can wear them all season long, the taboo of wearing them after Labor Day is no longer a thing. In fact, it is quite fashionable to wear them at this time. It makes you look like a rebel. Hahaha! I am actually not sure which pair I have on in this picture since I have several. I try to pick up extra pairs at this time of year just in case I stain a pair I already have. You will find great sales on them right now.
Yesterday I had someone tell me that they were not going to sign up for Rodan + Fields because it wasn’t their “passion.” I understand that it is not for everybody just like I might not like something that you love. But here is a question for you. If you were sitting with a friend who had a splitting headache, and you had Advil or Tylenol in your purse, would you offer it to him/her? Or would you keep the fact that you had relief tucked away in your purse a secret?
I have a purse (actually, it’s a website!) full of relief for sun damage, brown spots, dull skin, sensitive skin, fine lines and wrinkles, acne, redness, as well as lots of other issues. I can offer relief to those I know and love. So, why would I keep that a secret?
Or, what if I knew someone had a need for extra income? Money that could be used to pay for college tuition or fund kid activities? Pay off debt or plan a vacation? Fund an adoption or start your own foundation? If I had a potential solution, why wouldn’t I offer it?
I started the blog to help women feel more confident and look better through fashion and that also includes their skin. This is my goal, to help others and to reach people who can benefit from the gift that is Rodan + Fields, both in products and in business.

I’m going to Gulf Coast Jam this year and was trying to think what I should pack. I’m from PC and forgot about Frank Brown being a mud pit!! You look great and info was so helpful!! Thank you!!!
What color is your lipstick?
It is by Lipsense. I think it is Rosewood or Roseberry. It is something, Rose. Lol!
Can’t wait to see the leopard print ankle boots. My fingers are crossed that they fit well and feel good.
I’m so glad you show us that you can wear graphic tees even in midlife! I’ve wondered if I could still pull it off and by looking at today’s post I say “Yes I can!” lol Love the animal print shoes!!! There’s just something about animal print that elevates an outfit to the next level, even if it’s a casual outfit. I am officially addicted to R+F skincare so now I’ve got to figure out how to afford it long term. I’m probably going to email you soon with a couple of questions about becoming a consultant. I am so very thankful that you decided to become a blogger and introduce me to R+F!!! You are a blessing!!!
I love animal print also. I am afraid I will buy too much. Lol! I can see how you get addicted to R+F. When something works and makes you feel so good about yourself then you want to tell EVERYONE!
I love the t-shirt and saying! I love graffic tees, although a few years ago another blogger told me that wearing them after 40 is a no- no and makes you look silly so I threw all mine away, sadly. Now that I’m following you instead, I love findIng new ones and being to wear them w confidence! Thanks for that! And Everything I’ve Tried From R&F Works Grreat!!
For some people, they might feel silly wearing a graphic t-shirt. If that is the case then they don’t need to wear it. You should always wear what makes YOU happy.
Good morning, Miss Cuteness!
Oh, LOL!!! Are you feeling feisty? Love this look! Saved two pictures, to Pinterest, today! Wearing graphic tees or sweatshirts is TRICKY! People always ask me about Oklahoma State’s place on the polls, who are they playing, etc. How would I know? I’m just proud of my school! L-O-L!!
AC⚡️DC and Metallica shirts bring a whole different crowd and comments! LOL!! Maybe I should grow-up and wear Country Music tees! ❤️❤️❤️Me some Brad Paisley!
YOU ARE ADORABLE, today, Miss Tania! Rock on with your sweet self! Have a good one! ?
I really enjoy how real you are! Love the picture with the lipstick! I thought I was the only one who did stuff like that lol!
I get a kick out of graphic t shirts and I finally bought one, so I’ll be wearing it this fall. I’m so sorry about your concert I know how much you looked forward to it and after last year’s fail and this year’s rain you need to go again for the perfect event – it will happen
will never get tired of your family stories just a normal family !!!
I am not sure how “normal” my family is. Lol!
Yaowsa!!! ?
Love your outfit. I too am over 50 and enjoy wearing some of the latest trends as it keeps me young. I always check before wearing such an outfit to ensure it’s age appropriate. You look awesome as always.
Cindy, if an outfit makes you feel good then it is appropriate!
I love everything about your blog! Fashion jewels and beautiful skin. I have a passion for the jewelry and signed up after following you for over a year. I agree…to each his own. You’re an amazing woman and glad our paths crossed!
Love the graphic t!! It’s awesome along with the leopard print flats!! ❤❤
Laurie, that is the wonderful thing about life. We all have different views and opinions and we should all respect everyone’s choices. I am glad our paths crossed also.
What’s your rodan and fields website again. I want to help my aging skin, but nervous about spending so much money on the products and really chicken about becoming a consultant. I don’t know if I can commit to it.
Erin, this made me laugh just a little because I know that lots of people feel the same way as you. There is no reason to be nervous!!! All the products are covered by the 60-day money back guarantee. If they don’t work you can send them back. Most of the people who send the products back are the ones who didn’t “USE” the products. They let them sit on their counters instead of getting in the habit of taking care of their skin. The great thing is that the biggest discount comes from being a consultant and that ALSO comes with the 60-day guarantee. You can sign up and if you don’t like being a consultant then you can send it back for a refund. My website for the products is http://www.tstephens5.myrandf.com and my website for becoming a consultant is http://www.tstephens5.myrandf.biz but email me before you sign up and let’s talk about what would be the best way for you to join.
I am not a consultant, but I’m a huge fan of R&F products. Just remember that some of them take more than 60 days to REALLY see the results. I have been using Reverse for a while now and loved how it made my skin look. One day, just out of the blue, I noticed that a big brown sun spot on the side of my face was almost completely gone. I hadn’t even noticed it getting lighter. I was so excited I wanted to run out and buy R&F for all of the women in my family!
Chelley, Reverse is what I started with too. I loved the results so much that I joined! Thanks for the comment, especially since you are not a consultant.
Great graphic tee Tania – you look awesome in it!
