Just months away from her 79th birthday, Nashville yogi, Jan Campbell hasn’t even begun to think about retirement yet. Great article, inspiration to all !!  Read at  http://www.lululemon.com/community/blog/yoga-knows-no-age/

An Investment Banker was at the pier of a small coastal Indian village when a small boat with just one fisherman docked. Inside the small boat were several large yellow fin tuna.

At dinner at our neighborhood cafe, Table 3 ( divine!), the 5 of us came to the conclusion that we really relied on each other for an honest opinion.
?too tight, to short, too young, too old,   NOT YOU!  We all concluded that we are very honest, when asked, in our opinion.  And this is not always easy. We do try to be diplomatic, delicate and encouraging.  Collectively the 5 of us offer quite a variety of age, shape and style.  We hope you will ask for an opinion if you are hesitant....even the most confident stylish woman occassionally needs to know that the look is the best ' coming and going".  Even if you don't want a second opinion it is always a good idea to try on consignment clothing as it may have been slightly altered....and most consignment shops do not have a return policy.

The Times had one more comment about what is appropriate these days....at least in New York.  We thought we would pass this along
You are right. Wearing white — or black — to a wedding is off the taboo list. These days it’s simply a question of style. Plenty of women wear black dresses to formal evening weddings, and black is a popular color for bridesmaids’ dresses, as at this wedding. The same goes for wearing white, as long as you couldn’t be mistaken for the bride. And while it’s been the tradition for the past 150 years or so, there’s no rule that says the bride has to wear white either.

Sunday reading the New York Times Style section I ran across this article which I hope answers a question we are frequently asked...? Does formal really mean formal?
Formal long? Formal short?  He is wearing a tux.
