Who are we? We are five forty-something style bloggers who share our ideas for rocking the latest trends in over 40 friendly ways.

Here’s my casual take on the gingham trend. This Loft purple gingham shirt is a favorite of mine. You might recognize it from my blog banner. (Who says bloggers never wear the same thing twice?) And I wanted to add this colorful vintage scarf that was my mom’s into the mix. I love the way it looks tied to my Lilly tote.
