NEHRU JACKETS & PEDAL PUSHERS BACK AGAIN?

https://vintagedancer.com

I want to be fashionable in my old age.

However, there are some styles of

clothing that I'll leave for young ladies.

I have always avoided trendy clothes

because they may only be fashionable for

one season.

I avoided capri pants until I realized that

they were here to stay. They reminded me

of the pedal pushers I wore when I was in

high school.

I love capri pants and I wear them daily

during the summer because they keep me

cool on hot days.

I love the trend of tunic styled women's

tops. They are suitable for women any

I don't care whether they stay fashionable
or not. I intend to wear them like they are a classic style. Some of the tunics I see in the department stores remind me of the Nehru jackets I wore in high school.

I've noticed a lot of cut out women's tops lately. Some of them

even have the shoulders cut out. I haven't decided whether

they are a trend or a style that is here to stay. I've been

trying to find some women's cut out tops that are not

too flashy. I'm trying to find cut out tops that looks

like a classic and not too trendy. Here are some tops

that I might purchase:

THIS IS THE SEASON!!

https://www.familyallergy.com

I have joined the society of people with

allergies. I know when spring and

fall allergy season is about to arrive.

My symptoms began before the official

spring and fall dates given by the T.V.

weathermen.

I started experiencing itchy eyes and

nose, sneezing, sinus congestion

last week. I have to be careful because

I get "pink eye" from too much

exposure to pollen.

We had 2 weeks of unseasonal warmth

and the flowering trees in my town started

blooming. My Japanese magnolia tree is

full of purplish pink blooms.

The Crepe Myrtle Trees along the

highways look pretty now. The weather

in the Carolinas is fickle. we may have

bitter cold temps and frost next week.

I have an arsenal of herbs and meds

to combat my symptoms.

I use herbal pills for the sinus congestion.

Herbal cough drops and saline nasal

drops open up my sinuses too. It's

amazing to me that simple saline nose

drops work so well. The netty pot and

hot steam method was unnecessary.

I used allergy eye drops, capsules,

and pills for the itchy eyes and

sneezing.My doctor told me to avoid

over the counter (OTC) decongestion

medication because it was elevating my

blood pressure. I bought naturopathic

chewable tablets from the Natural Foods

Store. They eased my sinus pressure

within 30 minutes!

I found a website (https://www.huffingtonpost.com)

that had instructions for relieving

sinus pressure and headaches

with acupuncture. This method worked

pretty well for me.

I found out the hard way, that I must

cover my ears with a headband or

earmuffs on cold windy days. A severe

sinus headache had me in tears because

I didn't cover my head and ears during

cold weather.

I no longer hate the spring and fall

seasons because I have enough

remedies to make my allergy

problems bearable.
