Sunday with Stacie – Volume 16

August 11, 2024

Hello, beautiful ladies, and welcome back to my Sunday with Stacie series. For this week’s post, I thought I’d share some hot topics and latest trends that have been buzz worthy this week in news and online.

First on my list is fitness and health. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is making a big splash. It’s efficient, adaptable, and beneficial, especially for women over 50 looking to incorporate more movement into their day. Remember, our bodies are wonderful machines and, just like a car, they run better with regular care and attention. I’ve been doing a lot of walking and added in a little bit of weights. What have you been doing?

Next up, we have fashion. Sustainable fashion is growing in popularity, and rightfully so. Many brands are launching eco-friendly lines, promising to be kinder to our planet. Classic fashion pieces that stand the test of time are always the best choice. Investing in quality rather than quantity not only elevates our style but also contributes to a sustainable future. I’m ready to get on board with this!

Now, let’s talk about skincare. Natural and organic skincare products have been a hot topic this past week. More and more brands are moving towards clean beauty, and it’s nice to see. We need to remember to nourish our skin just as we would our bodies. Opting for products that provide us with the care we need without the harsh chemicals should be a goal for all of us. I personally have added more clean beauty products into my routine, but I know that I can do better.

Traveling is also on the mind for many in our community. Since the end of the pandemic, exploring new destinations is back in the cards for nearly everyone. I guess we were all tired of staying at home and now feel much safer to get out and explore. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a prolonged vacation, travel gives joy and new experiences. After all, creating new memories that we can cherish is what life’s about.

Finally, let’s talk about mindfulness. Yoga and meditation have been trending topics among us women over 50 lately. It’s a reminder that looking after our mental health is just as important as our physical. Taking time out of our day to breathe and center ourselves can make a world of difference. I talked about this one of my recent Instagram posts where I mentioned that walking is part of my own mental health journey.

So there you have it, a little roundup of what’s been trending this past week for us, fabulous women over 50. Remember, the world is our playground, there’s no age limit for discovery, growth, and joy! Remember to take time for the things that make your own heart sing.

Thanks for taking the time to read my post today!

Yes, you really can borrow a luxury handbag! I lov Yes, you really can borrow a luxury handbag! I love the Louis Vuitton Noe bag and had it on my wishlist for a long time. I used this membership service to pick out a handbag bag to borrow for the month. They have bags to borrow from luxury brands like Chanel, YSL, Hermes, Fendi, Dior and so many more! It’s a fun way to carry a gorgeous bag without the commitment of owning it.

I’m over here with no regrets on breaking all the I’m over here with no regrets on breaking all the old fashioned rules of “no long hair” nor “dark hair” on a mature woman.😎

It was fun doing highlights in my hair for a little while, but I was ready to get back to my roots. I’m thrilled with my summer hair because it looks so much healthier.🤩

I always go with what I like, not what society dictates when it comes to clothes, makeup, hairstyles and more because I think we should all do what makes us feel happy and confident in ourselves.

Are you a rule breaker too?😉
Summer mornings call for light layers and these pi Summer mornings call for light layers and these pieces answered the calling perfectly!

There’s just something about a flowy caftan dress There’s just something about a flowy caftan dress that instantly makes me feel chic, comfortable, and vacation-ready. ☀️🌴 

I’ll be packing this beautiful tropical vacation dress for Mexico next week because it’s the perfect resort wear piece for everything from a casual daytime stroll to dinner under the stars. Lightweight, effortless, and easy to style, it’s exactly the kind of outfit I reach for when I want to look polished without sacrificing comfort.

Are you team caftan when you travel? ✈️

I used mostly “new to me” makeup products today and I didn’t use a single makeup brush for this fresh-faced, natural makeup look.

Curious about any of these products from a variety of brands? Let me know!
