What to Wear to a Rock Concert Over 40

March 2, 2020

So, as most of you know, I’ve been spending more time out and about at live music venues since my husband has been singing with a rock band.  It got me thinking that maybe some midlife babes could use a little guidance about what to wear for an evening of live local music or a big concert.  Dolls, I’ve got you covered with my tips for dressing for a rock concert over 40!

Before I get to my tips, always remember my first rule of fashion: what makes you feel fabulous is always the best thing to wear, no matter what anyone says, including me!

What to Wear

Jeans  – Every rocker chic chick needs a pair of fabulous jeans: boot cut, bell bottom, skinny jeans, blue or black.  Add some edge with rips and raw hems!

Perfect Spring Midi Skirt!

February 20, 2020

I found my new favorite skirt! I’ve been looking for a midi skirt that I could use in the capsule wardrobe I’m working on.  This one is perfect!  Black and white floral, with slight shades of off-white and pale gray, this skirt goes with everything.  Plus no slit!  Seriously, Ladies, high side slits in midi skirts is the bane of my existence!  I will find the perfect skirt, only to find a thigh high slit that makes it work inappropriate. Sigh.  Anyway, this skirt has it all!

Poncho & Midi – NYFW Inspo

February 18, 2020

I get all kinds of inspiration from fashion week. Sometimes, it’s just the feelings of excitement from designers showing their new collections and the emotional buzz of being with a bunch of people who love fashion as much as you do.  Of course, this year I did experience it all from home, but I still felt inspired by many things. This outfit of the day is inspired by a runway look.  Wanna guess which one?

It was Gabriela Hearst’s ponchos, midi skirts, and knee high boots that made me swoon!  I’d love to have the looks right off the runway, but since my budget won’t allow that right now, I put together an outfit from what I had in my closet already. And I really liked it!

Son Jung Wan FW 20/21 Runway

February 12, 2020

A Son Jung Wan runway show is always a feast for the senses: the designs, the colors, the silhouettes, the lights, the fun music. It’s a runway that is made for an in-person experience.  So it’s bittersweet to bring you my seasonal review this time around having missed seeing the runway show in New York.  But it’s still a total thrill to see all the whimsical and amazing looks!

Son Jung Wan FW 20/21

The show started with an ensemble of brilliant emerald green, head-turning looks.  Doesn’t this shade look so fresh and pretty right now?!

So usually at this point in February, I’m all aflutter in manic New York Fashion Week prep.  However, this season, I decided to take a break and enjoy the happenings from afar.  I’ll still be bringing you news and trends, though.  And I’ll be cyberstalking all the bloggers who will be there!

Sending out a big thanks to the Son Jung Wan PR team who sent me this amazing sneak peek of the Fall/Winter 2020 collection.  You know I’m loving the large collar, over-sized belt/bow and of course the fabulous bright RED!
