I miss opening social media and feeling like I’d just opened a fashion magazine.

Back when style felt intentional.
Curated.
A mood — not a scramble for attention.

2016 Instagram understood something we’ve lost:
fashion didn’t need to be loud to be powerful.
It didn’t chase every trend.
It had taste, restraint, and point of view.

Somewhere along the way, style became fast, noisy, and disposable.
Buy this. Try that. Don’t fall behind.

I don’t want that.

I want style to feel calm again.
Elevated.
Considered.
Like flipping through a magazine with a cup of coffee and nowhere to rush.

So what do you say we bring that back?

Not nostalgia — intention.
Not trends — taste.
Not more — better.

One beautiful outfit at a time. ✨

Comment 2016 if you agree.

Deadly cold calls for cozy sweaters — and here’s the part most women were never taught:
they are not meant to be tailored, fitted, or body-skimming.

It was -27°F here in Northern Michigan yesterday, and nothing about a cozy sweater is designed to “fix” a body. Its job is warmth and ease.
Style comes from how I wear it — not how tightly it hugs me.

European women understand this instinctively.
And yes… Victoria Beckham proves it beautifully.
Relaxed knits. Fluid bottoms. Intentional proportions. Effortless chic.

If a sweater only looks good when you’re standing perfectly still, it’s not chic — it’s costume.

Midlife style works when the body is allowed to exist.
Warmth is not sloppy.
Ease is not frumpy.
Comfort is not the enemy of style.

✈️ How NOT to Gain Travel Weight in Menopause — Tip 1

🌿 I didn’t start with restriction. 🌿 I started with support.

➕ The biggest shift I made wasn’t what I cut out — ➕ it was what I added before my two biggest meals of the day.

🥬 Before meals, I drank a greens drink — not after.

💡 Why this mattered (especially in midlife):
✔️ Supports digestion & gut health ✔️ Helps blunt blood sugar spikes ✔️ Reduces inflammation from richer meals ✔️ Signals the body to process food instead of store it

✨ This ONE habit alone made restaurant meals feel completely different in my body.

🚫 No deprivation. 🚫 No white-knuckling. 
💛 Just support — first.

👗 Wellness first. Style follows. 🌸 Support over restriction — always.

#LTKfitnessgoals #LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

The single biggest thing that irritates me about fashion in North America is the misguided belief that all style must be tailored, fitted, and tightly skimming the body.

Winter style is not meant to correct your body.

#LTKPetite #LTKSeasonal #LTKOver40

🧥 Winter Style Tip of the Day

We’ve been taught to build winter outfits from the inside out.
European women do the opposite.

This look shows the coat-first method in action: structure on the outside, ease underneath, and no overthinking. It’s not tighter or trend-driven — it’s calm, confident, and designed for real winter life.

✨ Winter Style Tip of the Day: To Tuck or NOT to Tuck… That Is the Question

We’ve spent a lot of time on this channel talking about how to wear tops untucked and unbelted — and yet, more than half of the outfit photos sent in by our community are tucked and belted.
Both are correct.

#LTKOver40 #LTKPetite #LTKSeasonal

🗳️What content are you willing to support (Watch • Like • Share) this January? Vote below:

✨ Everyday Fashion
❄️ Winter Layers
👚 No Tuck Tops
🌿 More Wellness

🎥 I'll create what you show up for.

🙅🏼‍♀️ In case you are wondering, I don’t create much fashion content in January because people just aren’t interested in winter fashion.

🤍This channel grows based on what YOU show up for.
If fashion content feels helpful, inspiring, or confidence-boosting for you, watching, liking, and sharing the video lets me know to keep going in this direction.

💸 But if it's not supported, I'm not going to keep spending money on creating fashion content until Spring fashion rolls around. (It costs an exorbitant amount of money for me to create fashion content.)

Your support helps shape the future of this space — and I’m so grateful for this community. 🤍

🚫 Eating less backfires in menopause.

🧠 Restriction raises cortisol
🍽️ Undereating disrupts blood sugar
⚠️ Your metabolism slows to protect you
🔁 Years of dieting train your body to resist weight loss

That’s why so many women say:
“I’m eating less than ever — and gaining weight.”

✨ This is fixable. Just not by eating less.

Napa Comfort Chic: tie waist sweater + viral yoga pants 🍷

#LTKPetite #LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

Comfort Chic 🤍

This is my favorite place to live style-wise — where comfort and chic coexist beautifully.

A soft tie-waist sweater gives shape without restriction.
Dressy yoga pants move with you, not against you.
Low leopard heels add just enough personality without overpowering the outfit.

One of my favorite rules for women 45+: keep prints in the accessories.
It keeps the look modern, intentional, and effortless.

Style isn’t about suffering for fashion — it’s about choosing pieces that support you while still feeling polished.

Comfort and chic aren’t opposites.
They’re partners.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKOver40 #LTKPetite

Napa Day 3 style = comfort that still looks polished. A soft waist-defining sweater paired with the viral dressy yoga pants is the kind of outfit that carries you through wineries, long lunches, and unforgettable dinners—without ever feeling restricted.

#LTKPetite #LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

Style doesn’t have to wait for weight loss. This look pairs viral yoga pants with a softly tied sweater to create comfort and definition—perfect for travel days, warm winter weather, and real life (hello 70° Napa days 🍷).

#LTKOver40 #LTKPetite #LTKfitnessgoals

Headed to Napa and this is the exact outfit formula I packed: a soft, comfortable Amazon sweater + the viral Amazon yoga pants. Easy, chic, and perfect for long travel days, wine tastings, and dinners that linger. 🍷

Winter white isn’t bold — it’s intentional. 🤍. This outfit shows how dressing in monochrome instantly elevates your look, simplifies getting dressed, and quietly fights the frump without trying too hard.

☕️ TIP 5: I Swapped Regular Coffee for Mushroom Adaptogen Coffee

I have linked to some other brands of mushroom coffee below. These are not the brands that I used, so read the reviews first.

I love coffee. But in midlife… traditional coffee wasn’t loving me back.

🚨 Regular coffee can: • Spike cortisol • Increase hunger • Trigger that mid-morning “what can I snack on?” feeling

🌿 Switching to mushroom adaptogen coffee changed everything.

✨ It helped: • Control hunger and cravings • Support blood sugar and hormones • Give me something warm and grounding in the morning

🤍 It felt supportive instead of stimulating — and that matters in perimenopause and menopause.

💫 The result? I’m now two weeks without traditional coffee… and 10 pounds down in December.

This isn’t about giving things up. It’s about choosing what works with your body.

🎉🥳Cheers to WELLNESS in 2026!

✨ At 51, I finally lost the menopause belly — ✨ and it wasn’t from extreme diets, fasting longer, or working harder.

⚠️ In fact, those things were making it worse.

🧠 Here’s what most women aren’t told: 🔹 The menopause belly is driven by blood sugar crashes 🔹 Those crashes trigger cortisol spikes 🔹 Cortisol tells your body to store fat right here 👇

🤍 Once I stopped fighting my body and started supporting it, everything changed:
✔️ BYE BYE BELLY!
✔️ Stable blood sugar ✔️ Better sleep (goodbye 3AM wake-ups) ✔️ Less bloating ✔️ A calmer nervous system

🎥 I explain exactly what worked — and what to stop doing — in today’s YouTube video.

💬 SAY BELLY if you can relate!

🎉🥳Cheers to WELLNESS in 2026!

TIP 4: I Drank a Greens Drink Before Lunch and Dinner

🍽️ This was a game-changer for my midlife weight loss — especially during the holidays.

✨ Drinking a greens drink before my two biggest meals helped me: • Feel full faster • Reduce sugar cravings • Completely tame the holiday munchies

🚫 This is not a shortcut. 🚫 It’s not an appetite suppressant trick.

🤍 I see this as support.

🥰 When my body gets the nutrients it actually needs, it stops screaming for sugar, snacks, and “just one more bite.”

🌿 This is what sustainable weight loss over 45 really looks like: ✔️Nourishment before willpower ✔️Support before restriction ✔️Calm blood sugar instead of cravings

💚 If you’re dealing with menopause cravings, evening snacking, or feeling out of control around food — this is a simple place to start.

🚨 PS: NEW LONG VIDEO just dropped: Stop Following This Weight Loss Advice After 45 — IT’S ALL WRONG!

Winter Style Tip: Elegance That Keeps You Warm

One of the quiet secrets to winter style is choosing pieces that look polished while working for your body. These tailored trousers are a perfect example. They create clean lines and an elegant silhouette — but underneath, I’m wearing fleece-lined tights for warmth and comfort.

This is where style becomes practical without losing its charm. When warmth is built in invisibly, you don’t have to sacrifice elegance to stay comfortable. You simply show up feeling confident, supported, and put-together.

Winter chic doesn’t have to be cold. 
The most elegant outfits are often the ones that care for you the most.

#LTKOver40 #LTKSeasonal #LTKPetite

January style reminder 🤍 Your wardrobe doesn’t have to pause while you work on yourself. Comfort and chic can exist in the same outfit—soft knits, fluid pants, and clean lines make all the difference.
Style isn’t a reward for later. It’s self-respect right now.
