We resumed our Health and Wellness class this week; an action I really appreciate.  You may recall I did a post on Frances, the certified health coach, and one of my women of the year.  We began this season's seminars on the subject of toxicity; how much of it we encounter in our every day living, how dangerous it can be to our bodies, and some methods to eliminate it from our homes (or, at least minimize the toxins). Francis brought to the class a selection of everyday cleaning products, most

The Fall/Winter fashion shows for women's Ready To Wear Runway shows will be in full swing in a week or two.  I always recommend this as the time of year when a woman of any age should begin analyzing her wardrobe for probable editing.  After I review the runway  shows from New York (and maybe London, Paris, and Milan), I will determine which items that I definitely wish to keep for at least one more fall/winter season. I always recommend a stylinista review the contents of her closet against

Hello stylinistas and fashionistas!  I'm sorry I have been remiss in posting for the past two weeks, but I have simply been behind on several of my year-end chores and in kicking off the new year! It has been COLD this winter with several of our nights reaching the freezing point; just perfect for this season's furs (faux) and warm clothing.  The start of a new year also serves to remind most of us that we may have over-indulged during the holidays and it is time to take a serious grip on our

Happy New Year, all Fashionistas and Stylinistas!!  Most of my holiday season was great and I hope that the same was true for all of you. I am starting of my posts for 2018 with a question (or two) for you; do you believe that in order to be comfortable you must be wearing clothes that must be oversize, be made of sweat shirt or t-shirt materials?  Over the holidays I heard more than one woman ask another if she was "dressing up" for a party or other festive occasion and the answer was "no, I

Merry Christmas, Everyone!  My next post will be after New Years Day!

Most of my readers are aware that "RockMyAges" is dedicated to the ladies who live their lives as much as possible to the fullest extent; some in affluent circumstances; some more modest. The 50+ age group of women I choose to recognize all have the same things in common; almost all have families, suffered some tragedy in their lives, (death of loved ones, severe disabilities, etc.)  make the best of what life has dealt them, exhibit personal pride in their appearance, and are engaged in their

One of the most remarkable women I have met this year is Frances Weller.  No, she is not a college student, although she has been mistaken for one; she is a middle aged woman with a son in college, and a wealth of nutrition and wellness information so important to facilitate 'rocking age'!!  It is our good fortune that she conducts a weekly class at our clubhouse.  To the left, you can see pictures of Frances leading the group and offering tips on how to manage stress in one's life.

Yes, this is the same picture I posted last year; I love this outfit and I will be wearing it again.  Winter white is a wonderful color on so many of us women of a more advanced age. This week's post is covering two different subjects;  embracing our golden years with a continuing sense of style, and the ability to update a minimal wardrobe seasonally using a variety of small adjustments. My first subject introduces a wonderful example of a recent acquaintance I made at the local Trader Joe's

It is no secret that "rocking age" for any woman over fifty requires one to manage both physical and mental health issues to a far greater degree than when she was younger, especially during the holiday season.  We all may remember the ability to "cram" for a test all night then go to school/work the next day; many of us may remember being up all night with a sick baby and rising early to get the family ready for the day. (you may know the commercial about "mom's taking a sick day"; it just
