I’ve always been a bit of a late bloomer and never once have I referred to myself as an early adopter. Trends and . . . well . . . just about everything . . . need to grow on me–sometimes quite slowly–before they “take.”
That’s why I’m only now wearing blue nail polish. (more…)

An article in The Daily Mail (usually a blast of a read, with the prerequisite dry British humour–yes I spelled it the way they do–thrown in) stopped me in my tracks. I had actually been planning my outfit for a luncheon event and had decided to forgo my usual black on black and go with a peachy, swingy (but knee-length) skirt with off-white and beige accents. To top it all off (or bottom it, as it were), I thought I’d bring out my two newest purchases . . . nude-colored fishnet stockings and patent leather nude-colored pumps. (more…)

| So thrilled that FOF, a leading website for women over 45 invited me to come on board as their “Chief Pundit.” I’ll be covering topics that are of interest and importance to women, especially those–like me–who want all the tools we can get to live our best lives as we get older. Here’s the lovely introduction from FOF’s founder, Geri Brin. I hope you’ll check out FOF every week to see what this pundit is yakking about. (more…) |

It seems we’re living in a country that penalizes women for:
- Taking time out of their own lives and careers to care for others
- Getting older
- Living longer than men
According to a new study just published by OWL (Older Women’s League National Board), women over 50 are in dire straits. (more…)

I write frequently about being fearless after fifty because a few years ago I chose to embrace my age with confidence, dignity, and joy. Part of my life’s mission is to share that message with others.

But don’t.
There’s a simple solution to streamlining your goals, plans, even beauty routines, so you actually accomplish what you’ve set out to do… successfully. (more…)
