Vacation Shopping!

January 24, 2023

Part of the joy of vacation for me is deciding what to wear, and shopping for some new pieces to make the trip even more special.

Soon, we’re on our way somewhere warm. Any guesses where? It’s been rainy and chilly in San Jose lately and we’re looking forward to a change of temperature and a chance to explore someplace new!

For fun, I’m sharing what’s been on my radar for the vacation and a list of what I’ve actually bought.

On my Vacay Radar:

What I Bought So Far!

 

It will be a little while before we actually go, but eventually I’ll have fun photos and stories for you!

In the meantime, check these posts: Viva Magenta and comfortable denim pieces!

Fun & Fashion,

About the blog: Fashion Should Be Fun is ME talking to YOU, other middle-aged women 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. This is a place for me to share my love of fashion with you, including 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.

Travel Separates Over 40 – Palm Desert with Chico’s

March 21, 2019

I love to travel, and I hope to be able to do more and more of it. But one thing I always hated was picking out outfits for a trip. It seemed like travel outfits for women over 40 that were practical weren’t really very fashionable. Well, Chico’s came to the rescue with their Traveler’s Collection, clothes that are perfect for travel AND oh so stylish!

Those of you who follow me on social media know that I’ve just returned from an amazing trip with Chico’s and four fab fellow bloggers (Wardrobe Oxygen, More Than Turquoise, She She Show, The Real Chic Life). This is the first in several blog posts about our fun adventures .. and of course all about the chic outfits I wore!

NYFW Outfit – Plane to Shows – Grommets & Studs

September 9, 2017

My very first outfit of this trip to NYFW had to serve two very different purposes. First it had to be comfortable and chic to travel in. But secondly, it needed to look good for a NY fashion show.  I knew I was going to be cutting it very close to make it from the airport to the first show I was invited to. But you know me .. I didn’t want to miss a thing!  So one outfit was going to have to some tough double duty.  Lynn Ritchie to the rescue!
