    Why is it such a challenge to find great clothes when you're over 50? I still want to look stylish, with a sophisticated flair. I still want to wear jeans, the "real" kind, not the ones with elastic waistbands. I want to have jeans that cover my rear when I sit down, and don't allow my sagging tummy to flop out when I zip up a little 3" rise.  Read more >

    Have you seen that ad on TV for the contraption that is supposed to miraculously make your double chin go away? I just about burst out laughing every time I see it. It's for the "Neckline Slimmer" and here's what their website says: The Neckline Slimmer is a resistance toning system for the chin, neck and face muscles. It will help you appear years younger, giving you younger looking firmer skin without pain or surgery. All in just 2 minutes a day!!!  Read more >

About Me: 
My name is Susan Tolles, and I live in Austin, Texas. I’m an enthusiastic member of the “Fabulous Fifties” group of women, those who have lived full lives with abundant blessings, now ready to begin a new chapter of my life. I have been married for almost 30 years, and think I have the “perfect family.” I am close to completing my most important life-job–raising my three incredible children to become successful, godly young adults. I have had various jobs through the years–I’ve been an accountant, business manager, wedding coordinator, children’s ministry assistant coordinator, school board president, entrepreneur, and volunteer. I am passionate about inspiring other "over 50" women to achieve their fullest potential, so I am creating a local network and website called "Flourish Over 50" that will include insights, inspirations and great information on everything from wellness to style to being single again. I currently blog Fabulous Over 50! and I am the Women's Style & Fashion Contributor for Examiner.com in Austin.
