Nada Manley - Fun with Fashion Over 40
Ageless Style Confidence
Back in my late 20s, when I was working as a magazine editor in Boston, there was a cheap little fast fashion store right around the corner from my apartment that we used to call the cheap top shop. On Fridays, after work, we would stop by that store and pick up a cheap top […]
Hearing from you guys is literally the best part of what I do. It makes my day when I get your questions and when I have the opportunity to discuss some of your style challenges. I answer your questions personally, so sometimes it takes me a bit of time, but I always try to respond. […]
It’s finally time to leave the house, you guys! 2022 is the year for travel, and I could not be more excited. Our 2020 trip to Scotland has become our 2022 trip to Scotland, and it’s just weeks away. My extended family of 16 (including my parents, siblings, and nieces and nephews) will be descending […]
Don’t hate me because I’m opinionated. I mean, it’s kind of why I do what I do. If I didn’t have strong feelings about things like shoes and lipstick, I probably shouldn’t be a stylist. And this would be a very short post. Fortunately for you, I have opinions about allll the things. Usually, I […]
I seriously get tickled when you all ask me questions. I could answer them all day long. I always try to get back to each of you personally, but sometimes a question comes up that addresses a common challenge or concern. And for those, there’s Nada Saves Style, my new video format where I answer […]
Sometimes, we just feel stuck in our style. We buy and buy and still feel like we have nothing to show for it and so we end up wearing the same pieces in the same ways, while other pieces, which once held so much promise, languish in our wardrobe, unloved. It’s really kind of sad […]
One of the things I’ve learned over the years is that elegance, like many other things in life, can be learned. And we get better at it with experience. Getting older does have its advantages, after all. It’s not all wrinkles and hot flashes. š Back in 2020, I did a video called How To […]
It’s the moment you all have been waiting for. š I finally grow up and dress my age. No more ripped jeans or sassy shoes. Just kidding. You know that will never happen. Here’s my philosophy on “dressing our age.” It’s different for every woman. The goal shouldn’t be to dress younger or older. The […]
Body type is only half the puzzle. I know I know that I talk about it all the time, and that’s because knowing your body type is critical, but it’s still not going to yield flattering results in your outfits unless your clothes also FIT. And that’s where the Fashion Fit Formula comes in. If […]
I love getting a chance to reconnect with a young friend. (I’ve stopped using the expression “old” friend because none of my friends are old). Stephanie and I have known each other since middle school, went to the same college, and later ended up back home, reconnecting through a nonprofit where we both served as […]
