Fashion: What Would JLo Do?

Have you ever seen Jennifer Lopez look bad? I haven't. There's a reason why she's my over 40 style icon. She's classy, she's fun, she throws something risky out there every so often...I just love her.

When I turned 40, I found myself caught in the middle of not wanting to stop wearing the latest fads, and knowing I needed to look a bit more adult. I began to look for my own personal style icon - someone roughly my age, with the same body type.

Now when I make style decisions, I try to follow my mantra: What Would JLo Do?


Here's how it works:


Hair is key. As a woman over 40, I find that most of my peers have cut their hair into a shorter, more manageable 'do. They look great, but I am still crazy about long hair, so... if it's good enough for JLo, it's good enough for me. For now, I still go with the extra long hair.



I was raised in Miami Beach, and my style reflects that. I like to be comfortable and cute. I am all about the maxi dresses, and JLo wears them well. When shopping, I will try one on and think: Would Jennifer wear this?
