Post from Grimaud South of France

Our Internet has been down for the last few days courtesy of Orange and FranceTelecom, so have not been able to blog. However now up and running so am back on track. visited a charming little village in the hills yesterday. It is the centre of the chestnut growing industry and the main area for making the most delicious Maron Glace. After a really authentic French 4 course lunch, which only cost 20 euros, prertty good value for around here, we finished off with a delicious marron glace icecream. Definitely not too good for the waistline.



Elegant silver hair

 I thought this woman looked really elegant. I loved the colour of her hair and it was so simply and elegantly styled.Have some more pictures to come of the silver hair look as there is a women in our village who has the most superb silver locks. Watch this space. Would love to know your views on silver hair?

Just loved the blue shutters

I write a fashion and beauty blog for women over 50 with the aim of inspiring mature women to continue to enjoy and have fun with their fashion choices. I have spent most of my working life in some way connected to fashion. I started my career in Fashion PR and then trained as an Image Consultant when my children were young. I subsequently worked in the corporate world running seminars, doing private coaching and speaking at conferences. I started my blog in 2009 as I wanted to share my years of experience working in the world of fashion. I truly believe we can continue to have confidence in the way we present ourselves. Our style may evolve with time and changing lifestyles, yet with a little knowledge and inspiration, we can all continue to have fun with fashion. As women of a certain age we are a growing demographic let us prove that we can also be a chic one.

  • You have to have "absolut silver" for this to work. And notice she is tan, the contrast looks superb, even if you're not supposed to do it. Silver with rose-petal skin looks lovely too, but standard issue grey with any drabness or yellow is just dreadful. One of my friends went from just standard grey to platinum blonde (did it herself) and looks stunning- evening our the tone really helped.
