Introducing the Fabulous #over 50 Bloggers

When I started my blog six months ago, I hadn’t read a blog written by anyone else of my age. I read make-up and fashion blogs by young women a third of my age and found little in common with them. They were writing for an entirely different audience. Then my daughter set me up on Instagram and recently found me some “older” bloggers to follow. So I looked at their wonderful photos and then realised that if I clicked on the links in their profiles, I could go straight to their blogs.

Most of these ladies whom I follow are American and Australian.  They are far more experienced than I am at this blogging lark and astound me with the frequency of their posts. Recently, I was invited to join a “sisterhood” of sorts – “Fabulous #over 50 Bloggers” – a forum in which to share ideas, and this has opened up “a whole new world”.

My plan is to introduce you to a new international blogger on a regular basis, so you can take a peek into a different life. The first lady, the beautiful Lisa Brown Hale, lives in Georgia and is a wife, mother and besotted grandmother. Like me, Lisa is relatively new to blogging, but she is already making a name for herself.

For decades, she has worked with clients to help them look their best and develop their own style. Starting out as a Master Cosmetologist, she also worked as a make-up artist for Chanel and Lancôme.  Later working with Gap, she helped all age groups find their own style. In this latest venture as a blogger, Lisa focuses on bringing a unique sense of style to mature women who want to achieve and maintain their very best look.

Lisa’s latest  post is all about lipstick and you can pick up some great hints and tips from her blog, particularly in the beauty and fashion areas.

Do yourself a favour and follow Lisa on www.madeuplove.com  or if you are on Instagram under the title thesilverstylist

    Słaby ten wiersz. O ile dwie pierwsze strofy jeszcze coś mówią, o tyle ostatnia jest juz tylko tandetna wydmuszka. Też nie wiem, jak porwanie Sabinek można przekładać na tamte wydarzenia. Prosze Pana, tam kobiety walczyły, broniły się, mordowano wszystkich Polaków dzieci, kobiety, mezczyzn Ten wiersz nie oddaje Wołynia. Zmierzył sie pan z cięzkim temat i nie udało się.

Forgot to post this pic from a few months ago, tak Forgot to post this pic from a few months ago, taken when we could go further than 5k. Wearing all Zara except for old @carl_scarpa boots. How are you coping with the present lockdown? I am reading lots and watching telly and walking. I sympathise with those of you who are homeschooling and trying to work. Not easy. But we are nearly there. Stay strong.

New Year Resolutions are not for me. I just love New Year Resolutions are not for me.
 I just love the life I live. Of course I am worried about the Pandemic. Who isn't? 
But even though I cannot meet friends, eat out or do many of the 'normal' activities I used to do, I can still walk and enjoy the lovely place I live. Pop over to the blog to see my farewell to 2020.

 'Life is not measured by 
the number of breaths we take, but
the moments that take our breaths away.'

Maya Angelou.

Happy New Year from Graham and me. A different New Happy New Year from Graham and me. A different New Year's Eve for certain. We are sitting at home watching the telly. But welcoming in 2021 with open arms and hoping that in a few months we can return to a more normal life. 

While 2020 was tough, it also made me appreciate (even more) the beautiful place where I live. 

2020 also had its highlights: our third grandson arrived a few weeks ago!

Stay positive my friends. Stay safe and
 thank you for your support.

It is the last 'Style Not Age' of the year and we It is the last 'Style Not Age' of the year and we are out and about. Warm outerwear has never been more important, as we meet up with friends for socially distanced coffee outdoors.

 The coat from @primark has kept me cosy during these difficult Covid times.  This pic was taken down a country lane a few weeks ago when I was visiting my parents.

And I have lived in these camo leggings from @fandfclothing for the past few months.  Walking boots and hat are old. Pop over to stories for more pics.

Go check out my friends @annasislandstyle @mummabstylish @is_this_mutton_ @thestylesplash to see what they wear when they are out and about.

Writing about the importance of supplementing with Writing about the importance of supplementing with Vitamin C (particularly at the moment) on the blog. Liposomal Vitamin C is all the rage becuse it promises optimal absorption. It is all quite scientific. But what you need to know is that taking it will benefit your immune system, your energy and your skin. Did I mention this Somega is delicious? More on the blog.

From the archives. Remember when we tried on dress From the archives. Remember when we tried on dresses etc in changing rooms? And browsed in shops?
This is one that got away. Kind of wish I had bought it now @lkbennettlondon 
I am not so good at online shopping. Bought runners online in the size I normally get in that brand and they had to go back. Anyone else with the same problem?

🪥 My new stylish electric toothbrush (gifted) h 🪥 My new stylish electric toothbrush (gifted) has Ionic Brushing Superpowers! 

🪥Sounds impressive? It is!

🪥But do not ask me to explain it.Check out @ion.sei for all the science stuff. And learn about the innovative technology used in this German manufactured and Japanese inspired toothbrush. 

🪥It has to do with a UV LED light, a titanium bar and negative ions. But it is rather complicated and I am not a science geek.

🪥What I know is that my teeth  and gums feel cleaner and are cleaner. Because it actually prevents plaque from forming.

🪥Easy to use (there are 3 brushing modes) and gentle on gums, it turns off after 2 minutes. And delivers minimum 36,000 strokes in that time!!
