The Beauty Boomer
The Beauty Boomer is a fashion and beauty blog for women "of a certain age" by Poppy Buxom, whom I know from AF (the USENET group alt.fashion and it's Yahoogroup successor. Poppy's manifesto states it well:
Here's the deal: age and hipness do not have to co-relate. Perceived age is the combination of the impression made by your size, silhouette, complexion, coloring, grooming, clothes, accessories, and makeup. Some of these things can be easily fixed. Others you have to live with. But hipness? Looking in the know? Can easily be tweaked. And that makes you come across as younger.
