Exploring Brighter Colors

by Adelina | Dec 2, 2020 | 0 comments

Many Silver Sisters find that having lighter hair totally changes your look, and it is a time to explore colors that enhance the new you.
Being a New Yorker, wearing black was a staple part of my wardrobe for many years. It’s a fashionably chic and safe color-not to mention very slimming. And then came the gray hair…
I very rarely wear such bright colors and this isn’t typically my style, but with both inner and outer transformations going on in my life I’ve been exploring new palettes I wouldn’t dare wear before. It’s fun and just as liberating as being dye free!⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Watch out world, Silver Sisters have come out of hiding!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

One Jacket Two Vibes

This is an amazing denim and sweater knit jacket I picked up at Goodwill. It’s so versatile and great for chilly weather and can be dressed up or down. It's cool enough to wear this denim and knit thrifted find and I thought it was screaming for these accessories....

Happy Mother’s Day All!💐Then and Now…Swipe left.
One of the greatest Blessings of my life is being a mother and seeing my children flourish. Sometimes we wonder how we did as parents, but I’m happy to say that my boys give me my flowers of appreciation while I’m still here🙏🏽💐❤️

I pray this can be said of me from Proverbs 31:
27
She looks well to the ways of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28
Her children rise up and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29
“Many women have done excellently,
but you surpass them all.”
30
Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31
Give her of the fruit of her hands,
and let her works praise her in the gates.

And when you can’t physically, be there with them, there’s always AI to the rescue🤗😉

From me with big big hair, busy days, and raising my boy in the ‘80s… to watching him become an incredible father himself.

Life moves fast, but some things never change… the love, the bond, and the way your children continue to cheer you on through every season of life.

Justin has always been one of my biggest supporters — from my early mom days to this chapter of traveling, creating, and living life fully. And now seeing 3 generations together? That’s the real blessing. 🙏🏽

Sometimes the greatest flex isn’t fame, money, or followers… it’s looking around and realizing your family still genuinely loves being together.

Three generations strong… and my heart is full.

Bali has been on my heart for years… and I finally said YES. 🌴

So many of us keep pushing our dreams down the road—waiting for the “right time,” the perfect moment, or more certainty. But here’s the truth: that moment may never come.

My niece and I took a trip to Italy right before the pandemic changed everything. We could have easily said, “Let’s wait.” But we didn’t—and that trip became a memory we’ll treasure forever.

That experience taught me something I carry with me now:
✨ Don’t postpone joy.
✨ Don’t wait to live your life.
✨ And don’t measure your dreams against anyone else’s.

Travel looks different for everyone. What matters is that you honor what calls YOU.

If you’ve been thinking about taking that trip, making that move, or saying yes to something that excites you… consider this your sign.

Go. While you can. While you’re able. While your heart is still pulling you there. 💫

Last few days here in Bali. Staying at the amazing @kappasensesubud
Swipe left to see more. Living in a dream for another day. Bali is everything I imagined and more…

We are in Ubud which is the cultural, artistic, and spiritual heart of Bali. Today we’re off to a tour of the region and I’m excited to check out the rice paddies, waterfalls, and temples. Keep checking in for more of Bali.

A monkey literally stole my eyeglasses right off my face!!
We were forewarned by everyone including staff, and a woman who had just witnessed phones and sunglasses getting stolen, and the monkeys running off into the trees, never to be seen again!
We were careful, or so we thought.
I held onto the rim of my glasses while walking , and we held our phones securely in front us.
I felt someone push me. It felt like a person, until I realized it was a monkey. Then we stopped to ask a quick question, dropped our guard and Mr. Monkey swooped down and grabbed my glasses before I even realized it! He was that quick. A local guide saved the day by throwing a banana at him, and he dropped my glasses.
I saw him up in that tree and thought they would be gone forever! Grateful for the guide. We didn’t see him in action crafty suckas!!😂🙈🐒

Yes, Virginia, Bali is everything I have ever dreamed of! Lush.Tropical.Hot.

It was worth the long flight… three legs-Phoenix to Seattle, Seattle to Taiwan, Taiwan to Bali. So if you are planning to go, you will lose a day going, and gain a day coming back. That’s why we decided to at least be here more than a week because it made more sense.
Anyway, here are some tidbits, and keep checking in for more. There’s a lot more to see, and we’ve just begun!

Some birthdays get a day… I got two.

Left the U.S., landed in Bali, and somehow turned 69 twice thanks to that little thing called time zones—and honestly, I’m still celebrating.🎉

#thisis69 and it feels like a whole new lens on life. Slower, sweeter, more intentional. Grateful for every experience, every lesson, every beautiful moment I get to live out loud.

Here’s your reminder: don’t wait. Wear the outfit. Take the trip. Say yes to the life you keep dreaming about.

Because fabulous doesn’t expire… and neither should you.

Still here enjoying Bali- but my hair…not so much, so I decided to get my hair braided at a local massage spa (Anggita spa Seminyak )that also braided hair lol. I didn’t quite know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised. As you can see in the video it’s a whole different process than it is in the states where the hair is already packaged. They unravel ribbon and turn it into Hair filaments. It was amazing anyway check out the video so you can see the process and let me know what you think below!
