MMmmm hot flashes ! Here we call them flushes but either way they are hot and take some getting used to !

On the topic of getting older I have noticed of late I`m starting to question my choices in things, I`m a traditional classic kind of woman anyway but I keep hearing this little voice in my head asking, am I too old for this nail polish colour or is this necklace more for a younger woman. I know a lot of women older than me that dress far younger, mostly successful at pulling it off so I dont know why I should worry over it. I guess I have a new number in my head now and somehow feel the world views me differently !

It seems the threads eb and flow...we have some really thought provoking threads here, but it seems people get busy and just want to have fun most days.

I haven't been able to carry off a "hip" or "younger" look for most of my life...i was born an old soul, and that comes across in my fashion and other choices. I always wished i could carry off the trendy looks, but i only wound up feeling like a clown.

I have found one thing to be true through the years...if i don't feel fabulous in it, i don't buy it or wear it.
