What Do You Absolutely Need for the Perfect Fall and Winter Wardrobe?

What do you absolutely need for the perfect fall and winter wardrobe? Herein is a checklist for what you need to create outfits for every occasion during the cool seasons.  Age doesn’t matter because all of these items are classic and basic pieces.  They will go with everything else you own to make a complete seasonal wardrobe that works.

(For a Spring and Summer checklist, see my post on how to make more outfits out of what you have HERE.)

Maybe you already have all or most of these essentials.  If not, use this list to fill in gaps in your cool-weather wardrobe or upgrade things that are wearing out (or wearing out their welcome).

I’m not one for paring my clothes down into a capsule wardrobe because I love to have options for creating something a little different every day.  But I do believe in having all the basics you’ll need to provide the main structure for a wide array of outfit possibilities.

If you have all the necessities, you won’t ever have to feel like you don’t have anything to wear!

What Happens at a Yoga Retreat on the Sea?

Hi!  My sister and I just got back from the Ageless Beauty:  Yoga & Wellness cruise to Cozumel.  Hosted by Cindy Bartz, the yoga cruise had dozens of natural healing classes and events as well as private sessions to choose from.  When you meet the instructors, you can see that when you practice wellness techniques age doesn’t matter because they are all glowing with vitality.  So what happens at a yoga retreat on the sea?  Let me tell you a little about it and share with you what I learned.

The weather wasn’t the greatest because of a storm that passed through, making the waters choppy.  That made my first snorkeling adventure a little difficult, but I saw a baby shark and other fascinating sea life and had a fun trip overall.

I am sharing some of the information that I got from yoga classes on the cruise.  Take a look and learn about whatever interests you.  I hope it is helpful.  And if you end up much healthier, come back and let me know!
