As we reach the end of the year some thoughts about the industry and ourselves.

What we wish for:

  1. More women of a certain age grace the covers and featured in print, digital and social media -often spoken about but rarely a follow through. Articles that are age related – the best of the 30’s, 40’s 50’s – end at 50.  Why is that?
  2. Get rid of the phrase “age appropriate” designs and let us be the inspiration for clothing and accessories.
  3. Make a place for  older women to enter the industry – as designers, directors, managers, influencers. Not every new, hot kid on the block has to be a kid.
  4. Retain the icons not to mentor but to do.
  5. Publicize  companies with older women  at the table so we can throw our buying power behind.

Our blog in 2016 will have a new look, new features and a few surprises.  We can’t wait to show you.

Happy New Year!
