Fabulous After 40 Summer Fashion and Beauty Tips

The weekend always seems to fly by and we are just curious… what did you end up wearing over the last two days?

Did you go back to your boring “uniform” of jeans and a t-shirt?  Or, did you have a new sundress or casual outfit that you recently bought that you tried out?

We were chatting the other day about what we’ve recently bought and are which pieces we are actually wearing in our wardrobe and here they are:

 Deborah: Watermelon boyfriend jacket from Zara. ” I just adore the color!  It’s one of those pieces that I find I just keep wearing and wearing. It looks great with a simple t-shirt and a jeans or I can dress it up with all white underneath.”

JoJami: “A friend of mine told me about a new line of clothing called Clover Canyon (Saks) , so I tried on one of their dresses and brought it 2 weeks ago.  Since then, I have lived in this dress! I can wear it with flat or with heels. I have even tried layering it. On nights when it has been cool, I put a thin long sleeve top and a pair of black leggings with short high heel boots and top it off with a light weight jean jacket. Running around during the day, I have it on with a simple pair of flat sandals or Toms shoes (Zappos).”
