Kathy Hilton’s Night Cream

Kathy Hilton’s Night Cream

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 11 Episode 18 Beauty

On last night’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills we spotted a lot of treasures like one often does when our fave ‘Wives decide to take the show on the road, literally. So when I recognized a familiar lil’ box sitting on Kathy Hilton’s table I wasn’t mad about it. Especially since it’s by a Housewives-loved beauty brand we all know and love. And while it’s a bit pricey, when it comes to Beverly Hills beauty, if they’re on board with it it’s probably worth the investment.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 11 Episode 18 Fashion

Though the rest of the cast seemed to be dressed for chillier weather , Kathy Hilton looked like a ray of sunshine in her straw hat on last night’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. And thought it might not be vacation season for a lot of us rn, we know Ms. Hilton has gained a lot of fans in a short amount of time on the show, so we like to share whatever we can find of hers. Unfortunately her exact hat is sold out, but with these Style Stealers, we’re happy to say it’s definitely not the last straw.

The Holiday Dilemma: What to Gift Your Grandchildren? Books of Course!

holiday gifts books

September may seem too early to start our holiday shopping for grandchildren. But when I see a sale, such as the one they have on Barefoot Books (code BACKTOBOOKS gives you 20% off through September 30), and considering predicted shortages, I think now is as good a time to shop as any.

Moreover, to me, books are the gifts that keep on giving – especially when we choose a subscription book box!

How to Choose Books

If you aren’t sure which books your grandchildren might enjoy, take this opportunity to interact with each of them. Learn what their present interests are and what type/genre of books they read.

Selecting books for your grandchildren may seem challenging, which is why I will be writing a series of articles with book suggestions. I hope they will help your hunt.

Book Box Subscriptions

A Book Box Subscription is an easy type of gift. Also, it arrives each month, which is a great motivator for children who like to look at picture books and to read/listen to stories. The Barefoot boxes are perfect for Ages 0-2; Ages 3-5; and Ages 6-9.

Individual Books

If a subscription is not something you can consider at this time, you can always shop for individual titles – and there are so many to choose from! Below I will highlight some of the great books Barefoot Books are now offering on sale.

Incredible Animals

Incredible Animals (Ages 7-12) is a unique encyclopedia with colorful, engaging illustrations of animals and their environment. It includes a glossary of key terms and a table of animal groups.

Amazing Places

Amazing Places (Ages 7-12) takes readers on a tour of 15 landmarks and provides facts about their history, geography, and legends. In addition, readers get tips about visiting these sites in the present day. Illustrations, in muted, pastel tones, capture the grandeur of these wonders of the world.

Solar System

Solar System (Ages 7-12) introduces readers to concepts of physics, chemistry, and astronomy in a user-friendly way. This fact-filled book includes awe-inspiring glow-in-the-dark artwork.

Children of the World

Children of the World (Ages 3-10) is a festive, colorful look at cultures around the globe. Differences are celebrated while embracing commonalities of humankind. It provides a lyrical look into the beauty of diversity.

Animal Tales

Animal Tales (Ages 5 – 11) presents nine traditional folktales featuring animals from countries including Germany, Brazil, and Australia. Clever stories with universal messages will amuse the whole family.

Buddhist Tales

Buddhist Tales (Ages 6 and up) provides an approachable introduction to the wisdom of Buddhist teachings through stories from countries including Tibet and Japan. The introduction will help your grandchildren get an understanding of Buddhism traditions.

Earth Tales

Earth Tales(Ages 5 – 11) teaches conservation of our planet’s resources through 7 traditional folktales from around the world coupled with fun, simple activities for each story. The illustrations are colorful and engaging.

Have you ever taken your grandchildren shopping at a bookstore? What was that experience like? Do you have any suggestions for great books to gift grandchildren? What are some ways you use books to connect with your grandchildren?

Fall Fashion After 50: 4 Transitioning Clothing Ideas for Autumn

Fall Fashion After 50

It happens every year. The chill starts coming in more noticeably in the mornings and evenings, and we start thinking about the autumn season that is approaching.

Depending on where you live and how you spend your day, it can be easy or challenging to figure out what to wear during this transition!

Let’s review a couple of fun ways to make choosing an outfit during this temperature change work yet still look modern!

Layering

Layering has to be the most obvious choice for fall transition! Putting another piece over your tank top, lightweight shirt or other lightweight item creates the perfect opportunity to also remove them if the temperatures heat up!

It may also seem silly to have on a layering piece with bare legs if you’re wearing skirts or capris, but that’s exactly how you can stay comfortable during these changing temperatures.

Many of these layering pieces you may already have in your closets. But it’s also fun to check out some of the newer offerings in the stores, to make sure your look is updated. I’ve addressed the fact before, that looking contemporary is the best way to appear knowledgeable and relevant!

I know that the lightweight cardigan sweaters are something we all probably own. During this period, the ones I tend to reach for the most are the ¾-length sleeved ones! If you wanted to get an update to this item, then I’d look for the longer cardigans that extend to the mid-thigh or below. Either that, or pull out the kimono! These are lightweight but offer just enough coverage!

Another piece that you don’t always think about layering is your button-up blouses. The chambray shirts are perfect for this, but even your lightweight blouses can be a great “jacket” when you don’t need something heavy.

This would include a sheer blouse that you might own which is usually worn over a camisole or another top when buttoned. Worn this way sheer blouses can be as wonderful as a jacket.

The other layering pieces that seem to be popular right now are vests. I’ve been seeing a ton of utility and denim vests. They can add just the right amount of warmth, yet not get you too hot since they don’t cover your arms.

Then, of course, there is the classic denim jacket. This is probably the easiest piece to add over any outfit! Denim is having a blast in the style scene, since it goes with absolutely everything. If you don’t already have one of these in your closet, you might even check out the thrift store! They look great even over a dress!

Footwear

The other obvious choice to chase away the chill is your shoes. Of course, you can always wear your closed toe shoes, but the most modern footwear right now are the ankle boots. Last fall I put together an entire piece about ankle boots for Sixty and Me.

There were many of you who were under the impression that ankle boots don’t look good with most outfits because they can break up the line of your leg. That point may be true, but our eye gets used to a certain look or style. Wearing your ankle boots with skirts and dresses is a fun way to look like you live in 2017!

This is also the time when those open toed booties you thought were silly can actually seem smart. These booties cover your foot enough to keep it warm, yet there is enough ventilation that your feet aren’t sweating profusely! Even if you don’t like the open toed variety of the ankle boots, there are also versions that feature cut outs and perforations!

Scarves

Adding a scarf around your neck is just another version of layering! If you’ve ever embraced the versatility of scarves, then you know how perfect they can be during these seasonal transitions!

Your scarf is not much different than a topper in that you can remove it if the weather becomes too warm. If you’re wondering about where to put it when you take it off, how about tying it on the handle of your purse? It can still be decorative there, yet won’t heat you up!

It’s amazing how this little piece of fabric can add just enough warmth when you need it! I think the smaller neck scarves are the perfect way to not only keep away the chill, but to also add some fabulous color to your face! Or you can take a square scarf and fold it and roll it to create a neck scarf! I have a bunch of YouTube videos on scarf tying if you are interested!

Colors

Another interesting way to work your way through the seasonal transitions is to start adding in the darker colors to your outfits. This could mean that you wear an all-black outfit with a pop of color. Or you could take your favorite summer skirt and pair it with a darker or more muted color.

Certain colors tend to remind us of autumn. For example, your dark oranges, burgundies and olive greens. So why not pair these “fall” colors with a color that you usually reserve for the spring and summer, like pink? It’s a perfect way to have your outfits work for these fluctuating times between seasons!
