    • Hi Brett, I’m very blessed to have a hubby who’s willing to help. We really do have fun and that’s what counts. Happy week to you!

12. Ooh, great minds, right? I love your excursion out of your comfort zone and think the too-long slip is just brilliant. It is a bit grunge, but still gorgeous.

    Gracey

    • I’m so glad you stopped by! I had a chance to visit your blog….SO wonderful! I’ll be seeing you around. 🙂

14. My favorite part of the outfit is that slip (contrast in color) at the bottom of your dress. Makes it SO interesting. Call it whatever you want..you look AMAZING!

15. HOT!!!!! I love the off the shoulder look 🙂

    • Thanks! I call it the sexy pose..LOL!

16. Beautiful shoot…beautiful you!

    • Thank you Tamera! 🙂

17. I love this look. Youthful as you say but quite “black and tan” conservative, too. You balanced all the elements perfectly with the boots, leopard–and the unexpected slip. It rocks!!

    • Thanks Danielle! I’m rockin’..oh yea! lol 🙂

18. Wait, you’re 50? No way, I didn’t believe it and had to read your ‘about me.’ I would’ve guessed late 30s…early 40s max!! You look gorgeous! Beautiful outfit here. 😉

    Also, I made 2 purse clutches and I’m giving away one – you can pick which size you like! Check it out here. 🙂

    • I’ll take that any day! Thank you so much! I’ll def. check out your give away. 🙂

20. You look insanely beautiful! LOVE the boots!

    • Oh Shucks, Kristin…thanks you so much! 🙂

21. Great outfit! I don’t think it looks grungy at all though. Rather it’s chic and simple. Very pretty.

    • Thanks Heather! I think its the boots…yea, kinda rough.

22. Don’t you look pretty and LOVE the scenery! Go girl!

    • Haha! Thanks Tami!! 😉

24. These photos are just so gorgeous. Off the shoulder is such a beautiful look for you.

    • Thank you Jill!
      Off the shoulder was not planned…kinda happened…but I figured what the heck! It’s not like I was going to a PTA meeting…lol!

25. What a great idea with the slip! It looks FABULOUS like that! I always tell my kids, “You’ll DIE in your comfort zone” so I’m in complete agreement that we have to venture out regularly. Hugs to you! ~Serene

    • Hi Seren! Glad you feel the same! Life is short…we should venture out, experience all that we can in every facet of life. Sending a cyber hug your way as well!

26. love the juxtaposition of the feminine dress and masculine boots. nine west has some of the best shoes ever! thank you so much for stopping by…i enjoyed looking at your photos as well!

    [oomph.]

    • Thanks you for your visit as well! Nine West does have nice shoes for very reasonable price. Esp. when they’re on SALE!

27. well done! and the off shoulder relaxed style suits you so much! it gives you an amazing edge! looove!

    • Hi V! Thank you! The off shoulder was only for the shoot… no baring shoulders in public. Lol!

28. I wouldn’t call it grunge…I would call it perfect! Youthful…flattering fit…stylish…trendy…age appropriate…meets it all. I love your photo shoot!!

    • Wow! Thank you so much Pam!

29. Happy Lunar New Year!!

    I LOVE this look – the slip is my favorite part! I have slips with lace bottoms specifically so they can be shown!! {I think I am a hippie/gypsy at heart!} You look fab Jeannie!

    xo, sam

    • Thanks Sam!
      It’s my first time showing off my slip..too bad I didn’t have a pretty one! Maybe next time! 😉
      Happy Lunar Year to you , too!

30. I love the look and never would have guessed it was your slip at the bottom! Great idea… That dress also looks very comfortable 🙂

    • Hi Laura!
      This dress is very comfy but kinda sheer so I put on my old slip, but it was too long. Tried to roll it up but it wouldn’t stay…then I noticed that it really looked better with it showing. Who knew?

31. you are beautiful and i love this outfit! we would love for you to link it up to our party at http://griffithsrated.blogspot.com/2012/01/sunday-best-link-party_22.html

    • Hi Chelz, thank you for your visit and the invite. I’ll def. check it out!

    The Vest

    • Thanks Kim! I’m glad you’re trying new things…we might as well have fun while growing old, right? 😉

35. What a fun outfit to put together… you looks very youthful in this get-up 🙂 I say its for keeps!

    • Youthful is good…no, it’s great! Thanks Lady J!

36. You always looks so young and happy and can definitely pull of this look. I especially like it without the jacket and love the slip coming from underneath. The boots make if funky!

    • Thanks Sylvia! The boots are what pushed it over that fine line from average dress to a grungy look. I kind of like it. 🙂

37. Fantastic use of a beige denim jacket–it looks lovely with the black.

    • Thank you! My fav colors!
