A Little Leather Goes A Long Way Baby

I can’t help it – I too, am touched by social media (on occasion). This week our very own ladies from BA50, that’s BetterAfter50.com in case you have been living in a cave, shared a post from a site in the UK – ‘White Hot Hair’ where they featured Angela Rippon. Love the attitude of 71-year old broadcaster […]

It’s time for women to get their ‘ask’ in gear! Probably one of the most valuable lessons I have learned as a female entrepreneur is to get my ‘ask’ in gear. At a recent Mass Conference For Women, I attended a break out session presented by Cathie Black, Former President of Hearst Magazines. As one […]

Are My Boobs Too Big For This Dress?

There are two common questions that women mutter in front of the mirror. 1. Does my butt look fat in this dress? 2. Are my boobs too big for this dress? Somehow, the first ‘butt’ question and the myriad of responses that go with it usually result in an immediate fix. Oh no Rita, I ain’t […]

Can You Handle The Apple Watch?

I admit I’m guilty of texting questions to my daughter that inevitably end up with a response that sounds a lot like ‘Just Google It.’ So what makes me think I am equipped with the skills to handle the Apple Watch? After all – I am over 50 and ‘many’ out there in the wide world of […]

Stylish Jackets For Summer Adventures

Summer travels – what adventures await you? I recently unplugged for two days engaging in a mandatory migration after an incidental finding. Mandatory migration, the process or act of migrating, to shift, as from one system, mode of operation, to another. Incidental finding  – previously undiagnosed medical conditions that are discovered unintentionally and are unrelated to the current medical condition for which tests are being performed. Yikes […]

Have A Love Hate Relationship With Dresses?

Been to a department store lately? Been to the dress department? OMG if you are not going to the prom, you are seriously out of luck! Trying to even navigate past the glitz, the glamour, the straps and the bustiers is painful. I think I have a 2-inch gash from squeezing through the sequins and crystals. Seriously, […]

What Is Your Preferred Uniform?

My Mom was a dental assistant in the 70’s, which meant starched white uniforms, thick white stockings, white rubber shoes and white linen caps. How that made any sense as they chair-side assisted bleeding gums is beyond me. How about the stewardesses (now known as flight attendants) in those fitted dresses that looked constricting just […]
