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.

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!

As the incredible events of this past year went on, my life didn’t change a whole lot…until Christmas, that is. While COVID spiked, gifts had to be mailed or exchanged outdoors with masks on and our family didn’t gather this year. Basically, though, I continued to work from home on this blog throughout the year. Now that the year is ending, I’m ready to shine a spotlight on the best of Your True Self Blog in 2020. And as a new year begins, I extend good wishes to you for health, prosperity and happiness!

A sleeveless blazer will help you keep your cool during spring and summer business events. But it can also be layered during cold weather, and it doesn’t have to be restricted to business. It is really quite versatile. There are so many ways to wear it that age doesn’t matter.
Treat this piece as you would your favorite jacket with sleeves. Look for one in a neutral hue, like khaki or black, that hits mid-hip. It should be tailored at the shoulders but cut away from the body. Then layer a fitted top underneath — a simple tank or blouse with a high neck works best. Finish with slim trousers to play up the menswear vibe, or opt for a sleek pencil skirt for a feminine contrast.
The sleeveless blazer is chic, refined and elongated. You can mix it with sweatshirts, sweaters, shirts, blouses, turtlenecks, etc.
The following outfit combinations are based on a black sleeveless blazer. As much as possible, I will refrain from calling it black so that it can be a formula you can easily translate. But if yours is not black, simply substitute the colors of your choice.
There are three categories of outfit ideas below. First, there are outfits for business; then there are casual outfits; and finally, there are evening outfits.
