Do Not Take Me SRSLY I Am Wearing Stripes Today!

Do Not Take Me SRSLY I Am Wearing Stripes Today!

Yes, I spelled it wrong on purpose because I am feeling very colorful about my stripy pants this morning. I was skeptical about wearing a pair of dimensional pants, but hey, I've found two ways to wear them, and now I am ready to kick up my feet and strut my stuff. 

The struggle is over with this style rut that I have placed myself into. You know the one when a woman turns a year older, she then feels as if she has to dress like the head lady that owns the funeral home. (no pun intended}

The truth is, that was how I was feeling, I thought it was time to start looking and dressing like first lady Juanita Jenkins. (that is not a real name:) 

But I realized I may be in a bit of a self-pity midlife crisis. Dang, I hate to say that or admit it to myself.

Ok, here's the deal I am aging, and I am cool with that. So, today, I am not taking life, style, or others around me seriously anymore. Yesterday I had a light bulb moment, and I started jumping up and down, shaking my buttocks because I knew it was time to start wearing what I like and love, even if it doesn't make any sense to anyone else.

So get ready, readers. I may be wearing some age-appropriate and not age approval outfits. But who cares I believe its time for me and all women to get happy in our skin. Women of a certain age have so much to offer, style, funk, and wisdom to press through all the fashion mayhem in the world.

I will be turning 47 soon, I am focusing on keeping my Mojo going full speed ahead.

Let's pause for a minute and talk about adding stripes to my fall wear. I know this is a color pattern that is best worn in the summer. But, WHOOOOOOOOOOOO cares honey I am transitioning all my colorful clothes into the colder months.

Here is the plan

I am adding leather and denim jackets 

Heavy jewelry Pieces

Boots

Big Handbags

Although it does not feel like the fall season yet, I will definitely be wearing things that may not look autumn all the time. Orange and browns are in at the moment, but I am not ready to hang up all my bright colors just yet. Besides, who says I can't mix and match up to my seasonal clothing. 

To shed more light on my craziness about stripes, I must confess all the summer sales and clearance rack items are out right now everywhere. Honestly, if I find something for ten dollars, I am grabbing it, because I can figure out later how to style it. 

In conclusion: I am not in a style rut because I not taking my life that serious anymore. But, I am aware I am in the middle of my life, and I want something new.
So, today, I am not going to be scared anymore about my clothing choices or what others think is age-appropriate. I am not my clothes, I only love to wear them. So, from this day forward, I am going to play in and wear different styles. 

Also, I realized I do not have to dress a certain way because there is no style for older women. I find its only people judging people. A woman of a certain age can wear off the shoulder tops and booty shorts if she wants in life. Its ok LIFE IS NOT THAT SERIOUS.
I also feel its time for all women to own up and wear what the heck they want to wear. 

 Who's with me?

That is my story, and I am sticking to it.

All clothing was purchased by me from 

Pants: Online New York And Company

Leather Jacket: TJMAX

Purse: Mango

Shoes: Neiman Marcus - Tom Ford

Off The Shoulder Top- H&M

Would you wear stripe clothes in the fall?

Lastly: Dress the life you want to have. You know the one that brings sunshine, peace, love, and joy.

Until Next Time See Ya In A Bit!
