Happy Birthday to Me

February 16, 2015

I turned FIFTY years old last week.  Happy Birthday to Me!!  It’s almost surreal to me.  I remember, when I was a child, thinking that 50 was a huge number and that my relatives who were 50 were kinda old.  Now that I’m 50 I couldn’t disagree more!  50 is the new 40.  You’re only as old as you feel…  Take care of yourself, exercise, eat healthy, stay positive, and enjoy every single day that you are given!!photo-100

Happy Birthday to Me!  Here’s a picture from birthday party #1.

Thank you to everyone for the birthday wishes!!  I had an AMAZING day!  Actually, the birthday festivities continued for four days. Aaannnnnddddd….  if you know me then you know I always celebrate my birthday with a giveaway!!  I’m doing TWO giveaways this year.  One here on my blog and one over on my YouTube channel.  The YouTube giveaway will be live soon. I’m giving away a $50 gift card in each giveaway to Sephora, Ulta, Beauty Brands, Amazon or Starbucks (your choice) so that you can go buy some fun stuff for yourself.  You can enter both giveaways.  Good luck to all!!

Another incredible family reunion is in the books. Another incredible family reunion is in the books. Somehow I think it felt a little extra special this year.♥️

This was year number 46 for my husband’s annual family reunion and golf tournament in Michigan. We’re already looking forward to next year.🥰
If you’re wondering where I’ve been the last few d If you’re wondering where I’ve been the last few days, I’m in Michigan for our annual family reunion. And I must say, the weather here has been in the 70’s during the day which makes me not miss the heat wave back at home in Texas one bit.

Running quick errands on a hot day calls for a loose fitting dress and comfortable sneakers.

Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already reaching for rich fall colors. 🍂

#ad One of my favorite ways to transition into fall is by layering lightweight pieces from @soft_surroundings that keep me comfortable on warm afternoons but are also perfect for when the temperatures start to cool down. It’s an easy way to ease into the next season.

These warm, earthy colors feel so timeless, and each piece can be mixed and matched with other wardrobe favorites.

Do you have a favorite fashion season?

A box filled with summer pieces that mix and match A box filled with summer pieces that mix and match, that I know will fit seamlessly into my wardrobe is always a good idea!🎉

I think my personal stylist picked some very wearable everyday essentials for me. What do you think?

I love finding pieces that look polished, feel com I love finding pieces that look polished, feel comfortable, and don’t cost a fortune—and this affordable chambray midi dress checks every box.

It’s lightweight, flattering, easy to dress up or down, and perfect for everything from brunch to vacation to running errands. I truly think this is one of those wardrobe staples that works for women of all ages. Just switch up your shoes and accessories to make it your own!

And speaking of accessories, how fantastic are these jewelry pieces?! They’re from Noonday Collection, a fair-trade lifestyle brand that partners with artisans in vulnerable communities to create handcrafted jewelry and accessories. By providing these makers with dignified work, the company aims to alleviate global poverty and empower women.♥️

The beautiful bag is borrowed from Vivrelle. I have a discount code if you want it. And the shoes are possibly the comfiest ones I own.

This week’s Friday finds are all beauty products t This week’s Friday finds are all beauty products that have been working great for my 61 year old mature skin to get a more youthful glowy appearance.

Comment for the LINKS.💗

I started with an eyeshadow palette that has a variety of textures and shades in the rose family to create a million different looks. And yes, you can wear shimmers and whatever else makes you feel confident even if you’re a more mature woman.😎

You can’t go wrong any of the makeup brushes from BK Beauty to apply and blend your makeup. This eyeshadow brush is one of many that I love.

The foundation stick is new for me and I’m wondering where it’s been my whole life! It’s that good. Just swipe, blend and go. Available in so many shades that there’s one for everyone!🙌🏻

Adding depth and glow to the face couldn’t be easier with a multitasking palette of bronzer, highlighter and blush. It’s perfect for travel too.✨

The lip glow is fun because it’s a pH reactive one so it’s almost like having a custom shade that’s just for you.
