How to Get the Rock Chic Look

Let me introduce you to my good friend, Sinderella.  She has had a career singing, playing bass, recording and touring with several bands.  Those include Glitter Trash, Madhouse and Fillmore Slim, as well as support for LA Guns!  She has also worked in film and TV.  I asked Sin if she could tell me:  “How can women over 60 get the Rock Chic look?”  She has honed a nice glam rock look for herself by now that she can pass on to the rest of us.  Right off the top of her head, she gave me the tips that I’m sharing with you here today.  Since age doesn’t matter, her advice can work for anyone who wants to rock this style!

About Sin

Back when I was 20 something, I knew a guy who got a really creative haircut.  I asked him where he got it done.  He directed me to Sin, who was doing hair in her basement back then.  I had her try some daring do’s on me, and we’ve been friends ever since!

Today, she co-owns Paula’s Barber Shop in the Historic Depot Town of Ypsilanti, Michigan, where she is known for doing Rock ‘n’ Roll Hair.  She also teaches art and guitar.

Sin very graciously sent me photos of her style and took photos of her wardrobe items.  She said, “These are all I could find not in stage wear!”  Just so you know, Sin dresses like this every day…

So I present to you Sin showing us her glam rock look.  Following her tips and looks is a glam rock wardrobe capsule based on what she’s wearing in the photos.  She said, “Mix and match, to create any look!” Continue Reading

Do You Think of Style When You Write Your New Year’s Goals?

Tis the time to make goals for the new year coming!  Goals for the new year include many areas of our life.  The common areas we usually think of are health, money and work, relationships, community service and shedding bad habits.  Age doesn’t matter.  Life is a constant process of growth and self-improvement.

I never thought about creating style goals until I read Angie Cox’s blog You Look Fab.  Inspired by Angie, I made a list of style goals the last two years.  You might like to make some style goals of your own, if you don’t already.

These are some of my style goals, past and future:

How to Sparkle and Shine in a Metallic Top

A bit of sparkle comes in many forms:  jewelry, embellishment with sequins or crystals, metallics, etc.  Age doesn’t matter because your true self sparkles and shines, too!  Today, I’m sharing a formula showing how to sparkle and shine in a metallic top.  I’d like to encourage you to think outside of the box as well.  You can wear a metallic top any day of the season as part of your usual casual outfit.  And it’s a good piece to wear for virtual get-togethers!
