Style over 40 isn’t about rules—it’s about confidence. They said “dress your age”—I say, dress for you. 😘

This summer’s been all about leaning into color, ease, and outfits that make me feel good in my skin. ✨

Here’s a roundup of my favorite looks from the past two months—each one a reminder that style doesn’t come with an age limit. 🌞✨

At 43, I’ve learned lower belly bloat isn’t always just about what we eat—it can be tied to hormones, gut balance, and even how our digestion slows with age.

That’s why I’ve been consistent with Zenwise Women’s Probiotic. It supports not just digestion but also vaginal and urinary tract health, which is such an underrated part of wellness for women over 40.

And when that stubborn bloat hits—whether it’s water retention, excess gas, or that hormonal puffiness—No Bloat has been my go-to. It combines natural ingredients like dandelion, ginger, and enzymes that actually target the different causes of bloat instead of just masking them.

Feeling good in my body means I can show up fully for my day—and yes, wear those fitted jeans without a second thought 😉

Style Over 40 💕

I’ve always been more of a fan of pinstripes than bold stripes — maybe because I’ve always loved a little touch of menswear-inspired style. There’s something so timeless and elevated about pinstripes that just never goes out of style. 🥰

And truly, nothing says classic like a good dress shirt. It’s a must-have, especially during spring and fall — the perfect piece for transitional weather. 🍂🍁🍃

The one I’m wearing is an older piece that’s no longer available, but I’ve picked out a few great options (at different price points!) if you’re looking to add a new shirt to your rotation. Check my stories or DM me if you’d like the links!

Beauty Over 40 💄

Not gonna lie—back in my 20s I totally overlooked lip combos. By my 30s, I started experimenting. But now in my 40s? It’s literally one of my favorite parts of makeup ✨

So when I got this gorgeous PR package from Bobbi Brown (#giftedbybobbibrown 💌), I knew I had to try every shade.

And these are perfect for Fall/Winter:
1️⃣ Pink Cloud x in Bloom
2️⃣ Afternoon Tea x Afternoon Tea
3️⃣ Neutral Rose x Muted Rose
4️⃣ Ruby x Claret
5️⃣ Brownstone x Espresso

👉 Which of these combos would you try first?

✨ Skincare Over 40 ✨

Okay, maybe unpopular opinion… but I’m way more obsessed with my morning skin prep than my night routine 😂

Lately I’ve been chasing that true skin-like finish — and I think I finally cracked the code:
💧 Start with hydration — it makes everything else layer like a dream.
🌿 Add in some nourishment (bonus if it lifts + de-puffs).
🧴 Lock it in with moisturizer + vitamin C (non-greasy is key so makeup doesn’t streak).
☀️ Always SPF — lightweight, non-clogging, your skin will thank you.
🎨 And finally, a natural foundation or skin tint for that healthy glow.

It’s simple but makes all the difference 🙌

Style Over 40 – Fall Vibes 🐆
Brown tones are back (again!) this fall, and I can’t resist leaning into leopard print.

Total throwback to the 2000s—remember the L.A.M.B. hoodie? This cardigan gives me that same vibe but feels fresh, polished, and so right for my style now. 🤎

I love that it works both ways: cozy with sneakers for casual days, or dressed up with heels for work or a dinner date. 🙈

✨ Want me to share some leopard cardigan picks? Comment “Bananas” and I’ll send you my faves!

5️⃣ KEY tips for that skin-like makeup look ✨

Time for another GRWM – Everyday edition 💄

At 43, I’ve noticed… the more mature my skin gets, the less product it actually tolerates. Layers of coverage? Nope 🚫

Instead, I’ve picked up a few tricks to still get the coverage I need while keeping it skin-like 👇

✨ Tip 1: Focus skin prep on hydration 💧 Leave oils for nighttime!
✨ Tip 2: Concealer > foundation. I apply concealer first where I need it, then the tiniest bit of foundation only where extra coverage is needed.
✨ Tip 3: Know the difference between setting sprays & finishing sprays — game changer!
✨ Tip 4: Contour = shadow, Bronzer = brings features forward ☀️
✨ Tip 5: Powder blush x cream blush = the glow + color that lasts all day 🌸

Hope these little tips help 💕

And if you want the full product list, just comment “GRWM” and I’ll personally slide into your DMs 🫶

Style Over 40 ✨
Kicking off the new week with a work look. Excited that we’re slowly entering transitional season, which means it’s time for cute blazers, jackets, and fun layering. 🍂

But since I’m in LA, for now it’s just a blazer—keeping it light underneath so I can stay breezy when I step out. 🌬️

Shoes and bag, as per usual, Chanel and Hermès never fail me. Gold accents throughout, matching my jewelry, for a simple yet refined look that’s still 100% comfortable. 🥰

Travel is always more fun when I feel my best 🥰

At 43, I’ve learned that it’s not just about the outfits or the food—it’s about supporting my body so I can actually enjoy both without the discomfort. 😉

A few simple habits and the right travel essentials make all the difference. What’s one thing you always pack to keep yourself feeling good on vacation? 🌴

Style Over 40 featuring the Dissh Toby Dress 🤍
I’ve had my eye on this one for a while! Originally bought it for Puerto Vallarta, but the shipment was late… no complaints though, because it’s versatile enough to style for everyday.
With LA weather still warm, I finally got to give it a spin! Love how comfortable it feels, and how flattering the fit is no matter your height. It’s technically a midi, but on petites like me it wears more like a maxi—and I’m not mad about it at all.
Definitely a purchase I’ll be wearing on repeat! ✨

Skincare over 40 means finding what really works. 😘

I’ve been loving the GUYU Firming & Brightening 💫 Micro-oil Essence—each capsule has stabilized Vitamin C 🍊, hyaluronic acid 💦, and micro-oils that keep my skin bright, hydrated, and firm. 🙌🏼

Simple step, real results my skin can feel. ✨

Finally got to wear my Rat & Boa dress for dinner last night and let me tell you… it did not disappoint 🥂

The fit, the print, the vibe — it’s one of those pieces that instantly lifts your mood and makes you feel amazing 💃.

I don’t usually gravitate toward bold prints, but stepping outside my comfort zone with this one was so worth it. 🥰

Sometimes all it takes is one dress to remind you that style is about confidence, not rules 💕

40s Diaries – What’s in my Beach Tote 🌴☀️ Another sunny day here in Puerto Vallarta, and a poolside moment is never complete without the right essentials.

From sun protection 🧴 to gut health must-haves 💊 and of course a good book 📖… these little things make all the difference in how much I can truly relax and enjoy the day. Because feeling prepared = feeling carefree.

✨Style Over 40 - Travel OOTD✨
First night in Puerto Vallarta 🌴🌊 and for dinner I wanted something light, breezy, and easy to wear. Originally picked up this dress thinking it would be just a coverup, but I’m loving the drop waist fit so much that it turned into my dinner look instead 💃.

Paired it with my comfy wedge heels from Raye and finished it off with my Ganni leopard mini for a little pop of personality 🐆👜.

Sometimes the easiest outfits really do make you feel the most put together!

☀️ Counting down to Puerto Vallarta means packing swimsuits and upping my skin prep game. Mature skin tends to be more prone to melasma — those stubborn dark patches that love to pop up after sun exposure. Once they show, they’re tough to fade, so prevention really is everything.

This routine is a quick one but focuses on brightening, targeting dark spots, and protect - use it in this order for best results:

TirTir Milk skin toner light
Celimax Pore + Dark Spot Brightening Pad
INCELLDERM Dermatology Boost Serum
celimax The Real Cica Calming Ampoule Mask
First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream

Vacations are meant to be enjoyed — the trick is helping your skin enjoy them too. 🌊✨

Style Over 40 - Vacay Dress Try On ✨

Last year I picked up this stunning Rat & Boa dress for my Mallorca trip, but never actually wore it… because honestly, I wasn’t brave enough to rock it fully sheer. 🙈 Instead of letting it sit in my closet, I made it a mission to find the perfect slip dress to layer underneath—something that adds comfort and confidence without taking away from the beauty of the design. And finally… I found it! 🖤

Would you wear this dress as is, or are you like me and prefer just a touch more coverage?

Style over 40 - Worklook #ootd ✨👩‍💻 Monday’s around the corner - here’s a office look for your consideration 😘

Even though I work mostly from home, I do have my in-office days — and when I do, I make sure to take advantage and dress the part. 💼

A cute fit can instantly lift the mood on a hectic day because when you feel confident and put together, you can tackle anything head-on. 💪💕

Today I’m styling one of my fave dresses from Princess Polly 👗 (they also have a straight neckline version if you like a bit more coverage).

To elevate the look, I paired it with a chic blazer + comfy slingback heels 👠 — perfect balance of professional and playful.

Work days may feel daunting, but at least we can always have fun with our fits! 🌸

[special appearance 😽 too!] Skincare over 40 ✨🌸 My morning routine these days is all about extra hydration (especially with this heat 🥵☀️).

I always start with my 2 must-haves — TIRTIR Milk Skin Toner Light 🥛 and Kiehl’s Iris Extract Essence 🌿, the perfect prep before layering on the good stuff.

Next up: Riman INCELLDERM Dermatology Serum 💧 for hydration + anti-aging, followed by Belif Aqua Bomb Depuffing Eye Gel 👀 (caffeine + hyaluronic acid = magic for tired eyes!).

If I have time, I’ll treat myself with Medicube’s Daily Vitamin C Mask 🍊 for that glow, then boost everything with Medik8 serum ✨

To lock it all in, Skinfix Triple Lipid-Peptide Cream 🧴 protects my barrier, and for an extra lift, Belif’s Aqua Bomb Lifting Eye Gel 💙.

Starting the day with skincare feels like meditation — because how can you not feel good when you love your skin? 💕🌞

Makeup over 40 ✨
For me, it’s all about keeping things simple — and if a product works in more than one way, that’s an instant win.
Over the past 2 years, the one product I’ve been truly obsessed with is the Patrick Ta Blush 💕 Whatever magic he’s doing with this formula, it’s perfection.
And no, this isn’t just because I was gifted — I actually bought 2 of the 3 shades myself before this. But I won’t lie, it is a full circle moment getting PR from Patrick Ta Beauty 😍 Thank you so much for sending me new shades — these will be in my routine for the long haul.

Staying productive doesn’t have to be complicated ✨

As an elder millennial juggling content creation and my day job, I’ve discovered that the key is finding tools that truly fit my lifestyle.

It’s all about building a personalized system that works for you:
✅ Digital tools to keep projects on track
✍️ Pen-to-paper planning for that tactile satisfaction
⏰ Time blocking to protect focus and energy

The magic isn’t in using all the things—it’s about selecting the ones that resonate with you and integrating them consistently. Small systems = big results.

[scroll ⬇️ to see routine details 💗🤗]

Sometimes it takes a wake-up call to finally change. I didn’t start working out until I was 32—when my back locked up for a whole week. What started with pole dance and later boxing became the balance I needed: strength, mobility, and feeling good in my own body.
Looks? Just the bonus. What matters is how you feel. If you’ve been waiting for a sign—this is it. 💪✨

Here’s my current weekly routine - it’s not excessive and prob I could do more but this also goes to show you don’t have to over do it to make it count!

Cardio Boxing 2-3x per week
Pole (choreo) 1x per week when I can catch a class ← this class books out too quickly!! lol ..
Stretching 2-3x per week ← usually at home after my in class workouts.

There is no right or wrong answer. Find a rhythm that works for you so you can be consistent x

Self Care over 40 ✨
Sunday resets are my favorite way to slow down, give myself grace, and nourish both inside and out. Luckily, my skincare obsession doubles as self-care too 😌

Here’s my Sunday ritual that leaves me glowing and grounded:
1️⃣ Celimax Milky Toner
2️⃣ Kiehl’s Iris Extract Essence
3️⃣ Celimax Noni Ampoule
4️⃣ Celimax Dark Spot & Pore Treatment
5️⃣ Guyu Brightening Serum Oil
6️⃣ Biodance Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask
7️⃣ L’anza Keratin Healing Oil Hair Masque

Not every day allows for full indulgence, but when you can — make it count 💕

Style over 40 – clean, comfy, and built on solid basics.

Started with my tried-and-true BDG tee (I have... too many), paired with a Reformation denim midi.

Since the outfit leaned minimal, I added platform boots for height and mixed metals for accessories.

Wellness at 43 looks different than it did in my 20s—more intention, more support, and definitely more probiotics 😂

From GLP-1 in my morning coffee ☕️ to digestive enzymes 🍃and No Bloat 💚 at night, these little habits have made a big difference in how I feel day to day.

It’s not about restriction—it’s about supporting my body so I can enjoy what I love (yes, carbs included). 🥰

Beauty over 40 – My Effortless Bob Hair Routine
Short hair doesn’t have to mean high maintenance! With my bob, styling is a must—but I keep it easy with my lazy-girl formula for a polished, everyday look:

1️⃣ Healthy scalp first – I start with One Skin OS-01 HAIR Peptide Scalp Serum because at 43, keeping my scalp happy = less thinning down the road.
2️⃣ Nourish the strands – I treat my hair with The Rootist BioBrew™ Fermented Leave-in Hair Serum.
3️⃣ Protect & shine – Lolavie Glossing Detangler makes my hair smooth, glossy, and heat-protected.
4️⃣ Blow dry for volume – I love my Dyson, and I flip the roots while drying for extra lift.
5️⃣ Soft curls for layers – I use the Conair Double Ceramic 1 1/4-Inch Curling Iron.
6️⃣ Finish with texture – A sea salt texturizing mist instead of hairspray keeps it styled yet touchable all day.

Thinking about trying a bob? Don’t be intimidated—this cut is chic, easy, and perfect for everyday wear!
