Chic After Fifty

Tired of the daily #selfieinthekitchen? Well, at least today I changed my pose… how do you like it?

I do. Maybe the shoes are appearing too important, or too big? It is true that they are big… I buy my shoes a size more than the correct one. So I am comfortable and I don’t damage my precious feet!

So today is cloudy and kind of cold. Which is a relief, in many senses, and calls for long sleeves and long skirts and shawls. New clothes have finally make their way. But I am sorry for all the summer clothes I didn’t have wear as much as I would have wished. Those dresses I ended up wearing two or three times. Those straw hat I loved so much! Those sandals! Summer is really too short. I made it even shorter by spending it in Big Bear Lake, where shorts with T-shirts are the daily outfits while joggers with sweatshirts are the nightie ones.

Fortunately I have plenty of clothes for the incoming season!

Today for instance I am wearing a new T-shirt I bought at the sales in Zara. Light but long sleeved. Paired with my beloved Banana Republic stripy skirt (from last year trip in an outlet center near San Bernardino mountains) and the shoes from J.C. Crew, it’s another perfect Keep it simple outfit.

And to have an extra touch of glam, I am wearing the big orange/black earrings made by my friend Verde Alfieri of Alfieri Jewel Design!

Have a nice day!
