I’m looking forward to another year of sharing my outfit ideas with you. The ideas never stop coming for me. I have new style categories to cover and the trending new colors and designs inspire me. It’s interesting to look back on what my readers’ favorite topics were over the last year. The top ten style posts of 2022 included new and updated ones as well as something I contributed to The Beauty Spotlight Team. I hope you enjoy the Spotlight Team and the fashion posts I link in that weekly blog roundup.
The top ten style posts that were the most viewed show me what women are most interested in and help me to plan next year’s content. You can also help guide me in what I cover by leaving me a reply. I focus on including women over 60 so age doesn’t matter.

When Stevie Nicks is on tour, many concert-goers enjoy dressing like her when they go to see her play. But you can borrow her style anytime you want! If you want to know how to dress like Stevie Nicks, you can do that while remaining true to yourself.
Stevie’s performance outfits are very feminine and non-revealing overall. So age doesn’t matter. It’s no wonder she can perform in her 70’s and still look good.
As for the rest of us, an outfit modeled on Stevie’s flowing and embellished stage costumes can make for some beautiful evening dressing. You can try a full-on look or you can just wear one touch with your favorite basics. The one-touch approach can be used for everyday occasions.
She once said, “Don’t be a lady; be a legend.” That’s exactly what she did, because today she is an icon – in fashion as well as in rock ‘n’ roll.

It’s always interesting to see what the most popular posts were from the year before. What women want to know becomes clear as well as how lifestyles are changing. In my top 10 most popular posts of 2021 for instance, here are some things I learned:
- It seems that women wonder “what colors go with olive??”
- There are special items of clothing that seem to be only for special occasions; but I think women are always happy to find out ways to wear them casually for any day they feel like it.
- In fact, since the Covid pandemic, comfort rules!
- Although women are interested in being sexy, they want to be comfortable at the same time.
- That brings me to the idea of body-conscious clothing. Who wants to sacrifice comfort and confidence to be sexy? Not men and not women either. Modesty is important to a sexy look that goes outside the house.
- Layering is important for warmth and for style too, but it’s a tricky skill to master.
- Kimonos are a beloved style element. Therefore, I would advise everyone to have at least one!
- Designing a blazer without sleeves was a genius idea that created a cool look for warm-weather business…and then evolved into styles for every other occasion as well!
- Women want freedom and youth. So I always try to show how age doesn’t matter!
