To Find the Perfect Date,  

Be the Perfect Date 


Twitter double

We LOVE Twitter, for a lot of reasons. Once you learn to navigate Twitter Territory you realize it's a wealth of endless possibilities.

 

This is not a post extolling the virtues of Twitter, so we'll stop the kvelling and get to the point.

 

We recently met Brandon Aki via Twitter. We loved his priceless tweets on dating like a grownup, and decided to reach out to him for our friends who are interested in dating and want to do so with as much success as possible.  

 

Brandon is a courtship consultant, which is definitely a figment of another generation (not ours). That's not to say we can't appreciate the fact that our children and grandchildren are willing to be coached into being better partners. It beats waiting until you NEED marriage counseling!

 

He generously agreed to write a post for us on how to approach dating at mid-life. Turns out he's pretty wise..

A friend, who works in customer service at a big cosmetics company, said they refer to spring as "orange bride season." That's a testament to the fact that it usually takes some experimenting to find the right self-tanner.



The Perfect 'Tan' For Pale Legs


Pantyhose are definitely NOT a style statement, especially in the summer, and the only time wereally

cared about not being tanned was when we needed some color on our legs.




Beach Looks to Avoid!


Remember Magda, Mary's lovable leather-skinned best friend in There's Something About Mary? She was a holdout for the days what a gal could never be too tanned...

What to Wear to the Beach NOW!


Even though we wear notoriously little when we're beaching it or lounging pool side, that's no excuse to treat what we wear as an afterthought.
