Fashion Trends and Technology for the 50+ Woman

Today’s style story is really an education about trends and technology, darlings.

Recently, I talked about aging exquisitely; if you missed the story read it here. Aging exquisitely has absolutely nothing to do with how we look as we age, and everything to do with the importance of feeding vitality through new experiences, new people, and embracing new opportunities.

Instagram is a social network, like Facebook. Without going into far too boring detail, the way that one uses Instagram is by downloading an app to your mobile phone. I am on it, darlings, and I love it! Instagram is a social network driven largely by images… an instant gratification kind of place to keep in touch with friends, loved ones and trends. It is very fashion and lifestyle driven! It’s also great place to keep in touch with your children and especially the Grands. Ask them, darlings, and I bet your Grands will say to you, “Yes, of course I have an Instagram account!”

And while Instagram is largely the domain of the young, more than a few stylish women after 50, like myself, have taken to Instagram to see and to be seen. Because, darlings, part of my mission in staying vital is reminding the world that life after 50 is fabulous and that women after 50 are fashionable and beautiful.

Of course, we are also wise and full of life’s lessons darlings, I am not downplaying that, but the world has always accepted women of a certain age as wise. I am interested in the world seeing us as more than that because I see me as more than that, and I see you as more than that. We are visible! I am very visible on Instagram, darlings. Find me there @_honeygood.

Meet some of the amazing 50 plus people I have connected with on Instagram. I think you will find them fascinating…
