16 looks. 8 takeaways. A week of "sexy" (ish) and what I wore.

It wasn't easy.

The theme of the week was “fleshly.” Sexy dressing and I have had our moments, and I’ve long ago given it the heave ho. (No pun intended.) I’ve fought expectations to wear what’s “flattering” to feel fully that swaggery part of myself. But my MO for the year is “get curious” and I’ve been itching to revisit what “sexy” could be like at 54 — not trying to get a significant other, not trying to do anything but feel like all parts of myself, to feel like the main character vs. just a character actor in my own life, to feel in my skin when I want to. So I gave it a 5-day whirl and as always invited you to, too! You’re not going to look at this stuff and think oh yeah, she really got body con or whatever. My take wasn’t like that this time around. But I did find some main character energy in my own way.
