Denim vests aren’t just for biker babes or cowgirls! This staple updates classic outfits, making them look more stylish, and can even add a layer of warmth. Age doesn’t matter.
Usually we think of wearing a denim vest on laid-back days. But it can also dress down something fancy so that you can wear your special clothes anytime.
On cold days, you can add a denim vest under a jean jacket, or wear it over a cozy sweater with a scarf.
Besides denim blue, it comes in colors, patterns and sometimes with embroidery.
Unless the denim vest comes with matching jeans, it looks best with jeans in a different color or at least a different shade of blue. It’s nice to let it stand alone as one denim piece and pair it with bottoms in a different material, like faux leather or ponte knit. I would even dare say you could wear it with lace or chiffon or tulle.

If you haven’t yet, I’d like to encourage you to let your true self stand out and be noticed. Go ahead and be bold, like the peacock! Show your true colors, inside and out. Age doesn’t matter. Why wait?
If you are reading this, it is time to be blessed with the magic of the peacock’s message. If you want others to be blessed with this energy, share this article
Close your eyes and imagine the peacock’s glowing array of colors. Feel the power of that beauty. Now take that inspiration and think of how you’d like to express yourself just as freely and boldly.
What are your favorite colors? Which ones look best on you? What are your best outfits? What have you worn that makes you feel beautiful, sexy, powerful? Put these things on rotation and wear them again…(not something I say often, huh? Usually I’m all about variety. I’ll have to take my own advice. Lol!)
In Indian lore, any living creature that comes across your path brings you a message. These “totem” animals represent the subconscious mind, giving the information about the energy held. The Indians believed that each and every one of these beautiful powerful animals have medicine powers and knowledge to share. When you see them, they are helping your to learn, grow and expand your consciousness.
I’d like to talk a little more about true beauty within and without…
My son, Chris, and I have been making health goals together each month for years. I wrote about our experiences with this in my Health Goal Diary here on the blog. It has made a big difference in our health habits, especially with diet and exercise.
It has been beneficial to both of us. Age doesn’t matter. Besides keeping us healthy, it has kept our weight down and made us look our best.
We took a break when the weather got cold in the fall and the holidays rolled around. We got busy, sick, and then surrounded by holiday feasts and goodies.
When we decided to take a break from making health goals, we had a conversation about how overwork was taking a toll on us. Self care was lost in the shuffle and we needed to find time for ourselves and our needs. It was a goal that has not been easy to achieve.
Intending to think about what I needed to do to make time for myself, I dove right back into my work and never gave it another thought. So I’m taking a moment in writing this post about self care to explore what I need to do that I haven’t been doing all this time. I’m hoping this will be helpful to you as well.
Included is:
What happens when we don’t make time for ourselves?
Personal examples, both unsuccessful and successful.
The basics of self care.
Self-care tips based on specific needs.
20 general self-care tips.
As you read on, you’ll find more and more helpful information beyond what you might already think of, which I hope will inspire you with some helpful ideas.
I love leggings! They’re stretchy and comfortable with tunics. They add coverage under a dress. They’re an extra layer of warmth when it’s cold. But there are some who say that women of a certain age should no longer wear leggings. Actually, age doesn’t matter. These two tips show you why. Because they will make you look classy in leggings.
