Cowgirl Like Me
June 17, 2025Is Cowgirl Like Me a Taylor Swift song? Maybe it’s Cowboy Like Me? Okay, so obviously I’m not a true Swiftie, but I do know and like a lot of her music.

Cafe Augustine & Polka Dots
June 14, 2025My friend Lynn and I tried out a new cafe in Santana Row in San Jose. It was super cute and a great place for a coffee and outfit photo.

There is just something so fun about putting on a cute outfit and going out for a fancy coffee with a friend. The polka dot dress I’m wearing is from last year and long gone in stores, but here are a few of my favorites available right now:
I wore the dress with some black heeled sandals, a pearl accent chain necklace, and carried my leather bucket bag.
Lynn is wearing a cute black summer dress, with black sandals, and a chic brown belt.
Do you love dressing cute and having coffee with friends? Do you have favorite cafes where you live? Let us know!
After our coffee, Lynn and I ham it up trying on dresses at Loft!

About the blog: Fashion Should Be Fun is me talking to you, other middle aged women like me who are over 40, but not over fashion. We still want to look beautiful and stylish. We still want to have fun with trends. And we don’t need anyone giving us rules, because we’re all different. We all have our own shapes and bodies, parts we’d like to cover and parts we still don’t mind showing off a bit. This is a place for me to share my love of fashion with you, style ideas, tips, trends, and inspiration. I know how liking the way we look can translate into confidence and energy. I know we have so much life left to live and so much adventure ahead of us. Let’s show the world you’re never too old to have fun and be fierce!
