I always enjoy your blog, so many great tips. I too don’t have dresses in my closet. I’m stressing a little about what to wear to my grandson’s wedding in June – any advice would be appreciated.
I always find appropriate special occasion dresses and or pants sets at Dillards.com.
Love the black dress but struggle to find a light weight sweater to wear with it.
Cotton and cashmere work well for me. Sometimes, I just drape it across my shoulders instead of wearing it.
That Mr. Mickey should start his own blog. Class personified. What a striking couple you are. Happy Valentine’s Day!
I, too, am a member of the “Does this make me look thin?” club. Darker colors, distracting patterns, monochromatic combinations, color blocking, and strategic seaming are magical illusions. I am generally described as tall and thin. The truth is I am tall and well concealed. Oh, another tip: Clothing should skim over your body and not be skin tight.
It’s refreshing that you recognize and encourage women in our age bracket to continually reassess our clothing, footwear, makeup and food choices by providing valuable information from your research. I’ve learned so much from you about dressing to appear taller, more slender and age appropriate. I’ve drastically reduced the amount of processed food from my vegetarian food plan that I previously thought was healthy. I may not be there yet, but I know that going forward I am making an effort to accept the changes taking place and to apply your insight and wisdom that you share with us.
You both look perfect. What a great life you two embody!
I always think you look slender, so you’re doing a good job.
You always look so beautiful. I have recently embraced my gray hair (at 58), and I just showed my husband a picture of you the other day to show him how I want my hair to look (in process of growing out pixie after cutting remaining color off). I have always been challenged in the style department, but I’m learning so much from you! Thank you!
You look wonderful so does Mr. Mickey. Have a fun valentines day!
A very nice post.
The dress looks lovely, but alas would not do for me as it would cling to my rather prominent tummy and bulgy thighs – I am over wearing constricting undergarments just to look chic!
You two are always adorable. Thank you for the slimming tips — I also follow the all-black wardrobe style when I need to look taller and/or slimmer in a pinch. Mr. Mickey’s keyboard is very spiffy, and perfect the occasion. Cheers!
I’m enjoying and savng all these blogs Susan, they are full of great ideas, as I am short at 5’1″ and a few pounds too many .. I plan to print out your recipes and begin a better diet! thanks for all your tips and photos, much appreciated. ann lee s. bc, Canada
You look beautiful! Very stunning!
I so enjoy your blog. Almost as much as your jewelry supply stuff! And your Valentine is a keeper. You guys look awesome.
I am short waisted with a tummy bulge even though I am not overweight. I can not wear a plain tank dress in slinky material. My stomach is totally highlighted. I have found fit and flare dresses with a form fitting bodice and a forgiving tea length handkerchief hem are fabulous on my figure. I wear these type of dresses all summer long….no loud patterns…just solid colors.. I’ll wear nude flats to blend with my bare legs and a knockout necklace to draw the eye up. Wish I could wear the tank dresses, though….lovely on you.
Thank you for giving us other dress options to consider.
Susan , I am so glad to have discovered your blog! Honestly, I could read it daily!

Thank you!
We are totally different body types yet near the same age. I am tall, have always been slender, and flat chested. I have to wear shirts with collars because they tend to soften the sharp features of my neck and face. It’s nice that we can identify what works best for us and make it work to our advantage. I enjoy your blog.
Enjoy your blog,so much! Your tips are very helpful. Thanks!
So enjoyed Thank you
Great tips! Loved your “all in black” look….beautiful and elegant…Mr Mickey is as usual handsome dapper! You make a lovely couple!!!
