Meet my friend Annie. She’s my Masters Swim buddy and we’ve been sharing Lane Two for years and years. We recently had lunch together and it was hot out. Annie wasn’t buried under a heavy sweatshirt or parka, just a t-shirt and running tights.
“You look GREAT!” I told Annie.
“Thanks! My husband gave me this t-shirt. But I think I need to update.”
Music to my ears.
“Let’s go shopping!”
“Really?!?”
And from there we talked about where and when and if I could include her in a blog post to show others how easy it is to update a look.
Annie is a retired high school teacher and on a budget. We pre-shopped her straight-leg jeans, from @Gap as she was in my Abbey Road TikTok video. (Be careful, once you are discovered by Oh-S0-Fancy Francie, you will enter social media places you never dreamed of going.)
I’m sure Annie won’t mind me saying, she is 67 years old and all the outfits we picked, I would wear too. This is how you can look current but not like you are trying too hard.
We met at Target and were tailed by another talent discovered by Oh-S0-Fancy Francie, Laura, our photographer and Abbey Road buddy.
Simple balloon sleeve top with a half-tuck paired with low heeled black booties, both from @Target!
Burgundy Cardigan, aka grandpa sweater, paired with striped, long-sleeved tee.:
Mock turtleneck sweater in teal, we both swooned!
Thanks Annie for showing us so many ways to look stylish.
