There is one additional “accessory” that completes your look – red toe nail polish!
After reading your blog for a while now, I have gone out and purchased #680 Revlon Red nail polish. I am now painting my toenails red. Not only does this seem to add a finished look to my summer sandals, it also reminds me of how my Mom used to paint her toenails red back when I was a little girl growing up.
I’m enjoying the look.
Wasn’t it Coco Chanel who said whenever you have finished dressing and accessorizing, look in the mirror and remove at least one accessory? You’re in good company! I love the military inspired jacket. It looks good with white and could be worn in the fall and winter also.
It is good to see how and understand WHY you put outfits together. Please keep these coming.
About choosing shoe colour, what would you wear with navy or dark denims? – Is black OK as it continues the darker look.
Also if wearing stone or grey trousers what colour she or sandal to go with it? Would tan or metallic mix colours in between seasons, say for spring.
In the UK White trousers tend to be for sunny days in summer or holidays, So lighter stone colours are easier to use generally.
I try to match the color of my skin if I am wearing white pants or pants that don’t come down to the top of the shoe. A metallic color shoe in more of a muted neutral than a bright color can be a great shoe to wear with almost anything.
I see you’ve found a great looking shoe that is comfortable and stylish!! Sofft is a great choice!
Like this outfit Susan. You look great & you are wearing one of my favorite accessores..the pearls from your FK collection. The shoes are a great height & cute as well. Are you wearing Dutch Tulips on your toes this summer? Best wishes & thank you!
You are a smart woman. I am actually packing for a two-week trip right now and I am going to swap out some of the black shoes I packed!!! You are absolutely right about the black shoes cutting off my legs with a dress. Keep the tips coming!!!
I just looked at your kimmos. You have a beautiful orange one but it only comes in L. Do you also get xl? Thanks for all the tips. You are right about the French Kandee. Instead of all the inexpensive necklaces I would probably have enough saved for one nice necklace.
It is not at all structured in style and is loose fitting, so it might work for you.
Great tips as always Susan. I am also sixty, frump free and intending to stay that way. You look amazing and are an inspiration! Thanks much.
Great tips as usual! Thank you Susan.
I like your sandals. I recently purchased a pair of Comfortiva sandals that look almost like them.
We just did an overnighter during the week and accessories let me take a small tote…only! Such good tips. -Laurel Bledsoe
Hello Susan
My friend Chris and I are currently in Hawaii and after reading your blog we have been inspired to shop at several of the shops mentioned in your blogs. This has made our shoppi g so much easier fun and interesting. We have been inspired by your suggestions, making shopping for cloths so much more fun and exciting. Keep up your good work.
Kind regards
Elizabeth.
Hi Susan,
I love your style. I will be 60 next year so I really enjoy seeing how you deal with the changes we face at this age.
I recall you saying you don’t like to wear dresses. I love dresses but don’t wear them because I can never find anything that works with my mature figure. Do you have suggestions for neckline, sleeve length (I find it difficult to find warm weather dresses with sleeves at all!) and where it should fall.
Thank you for sharing all your tips. I love your blog.

The only dress I own is the black tank style from my site, but I always add a jacket, cardigan or kimono over it. If I wore them often, I would look for sleeves and hems that ended at the most narrow part of my arms and legs while covering all the bits I do not want to show. The neckline that flatters my face shape most is scooped or a V without showing cleavage. I hope these tips help you to determine what will serve you well.
you look great front and back view
I have the same Sofft shoes you are wearing here. For a wedding I will be wearing dressy black ankle pants. Would you wear these sandals or would you go with black?
With ankle pants, I would wear the pewter color. With long black pants that touch the shoes, I would wear black shoes.
Thanks!
I went out to dinner tonight & I tyed a beautiful square scarf on my purse handle. Everyone thought it was a great idea. I was able to use it in the cold restaurant also. I wonder where I got that great idea???? Thanks. Tomorrow we are taking a trip out to the country. My outfit does not look as good as any of yours. I would look and feel too dressed up and out of place. It seems everyone up north is way casual. Also, today on a clothing show they said not to wear white during autumn and winter. Made me think of your blog.
