Self care has become an overused word in my opinion. To some it conjures up images of indulgence. To others it opens up a path to growth. I like to use the word rejuvenate instead.
Every evening when possible I like to enjoy a soothing, relaxing bath. I take a shower while the tub is filling up I light some candles settle into the warm water and live for a while in the silence.
My New Years goals started with the aid of this wonderful Salt bath salts
Pure Dharma Nourishing Botanicals can help heal and renew the body and rejuvenate the soul. From healing bath salts to the CBD oil I apply to my face every morning when I wake up. This Glow CBD Activated Oil Serum adds an instant glow that lasts all day. It is rich in stem cells and Vitamin C to brighten and tighten the skin.
Years ago, I wrote a blog about an “adventure” I had always wanted to take. Floatation Therapy. If you have one close by consider trying it. Floating in the dark silence for an hour might sound daunting…..
A friend of mine said she ran out of things to think about, which of course is the point!
Consider getting in a Floatation Tank Floatation Tank at least once. You just might turn it into a habit to improve your self care.
Style Beyond Age was designed as a space for Sonia to share all that is chic and stylish. What she discovered over the past 4 years was an unexpected enthusiasm from her followers each time she offered an inside glimpse of the woman wearing the fabulous fashions. In a world where authenticity and transparency were quickly taking center stage, Sonia embraced this moment.
“Look for the woman in the dress. If there is no woman, there is no dress.”
– Coco Channel
Taking Her Next Steps Now
Just like Coco Channel’s famous words there would be no Style Beyond Age without the woman behind the brand. And without skipping a stylish beat, a new Style Beyond Age evolved.
Style Beyond Age Mission
To inspire, create, question, and provoke fresh starts every day – for your best life beyond 60.
Ageless Is Staying Relevant
Style Beyond Age still serves up all that is chic and stylish, but now in a way that fits 2022. This means sustainability first, inclusivity, and fashion for women over 60, mixing high and low, handling trends in an age appropriate manner and living your best life with a smaller footprint – less is the new more!
Sonia is opening up about things that motivate her most and about how she finds purpose in life, She is talking about making smarter choices with age, what drives her passion and what quite frankly, fuels her frustrations – always with elegance and a good laugh!
She is leaning in her 69 years of success and struggle to impart this wisdom in meaningful ways to the women who are lining up to listen. She is tackling taboo topics too, like questioning perceptions of aging and the power of saying no (and granting yourself this permission!) while staying open to endless possibilities.
The Art of Aging Gracefully
Style Beyond Age is redefining what it means to age gracefully. It is not about anti-aging creams and slowing down time. It is about a positive attitude, learning new skills, showing vulnerability and unlimited fresh starts – all while looking chic and sophisticated. But even chic looks a little different these days – sometimes yoga pants and bare feet simply make more sense.
What Is Not Changing?
Sonia’s passion for sharing her personal style, her exotic travels and packing secrets, and her skincare and wellness tips. Her fans will continue to enjoy the same energy she has always put out into the world when sharing her stories – this includes her thoughtful, authentic and open minded approach to any topic she takes on. And above all, the sense of adventure she brings along the way!

A Note From Sonia
“I am looking at things differently these days. As I approach my 7th decade of life and reflect on all that I have lived and learned – I realize my best years are beginning right now! I am ready to get real with my readers and share the voice inside my head and heart that drives all that I do and have become. I have spirit, wit, and grace – qualities I would never, ever wish away. They have made me wiser, challenged me to take risks, taught me how to be more assertive while retaining my femininity and helped me to never fear failure. What a fabulous ride it has been – ridiculous twists and all. This is exactly what I want to share with the world.”
I fell in love with this uber comfy look and when it came in cashmere and on sale it was not be ignored
Building blocks for a capsule wardrobe should be versatile comfortable and easy to pack. I fell in love with this cranberry color Chico’s Black Label set that also comes in black. You will see the Joggers on repeat but in very different iterations. Here with the cashmere V Neck and pants I can easily go from ladies lunch to shopping. Nothing makes a look more than accessories and here, the cranberry color pairs so well with blue
A note on sustainability…………. I always carry a bag for my purchases including groceries. An item like this of the moment Dior book bag or something similar will pay dividends in the long run. If I am carrying a crossbody I have a string bag like this one from Hive It’s the perfect solution and reminds me of my childhood The very same look from the opening shot can easily be transformed with a pair of shoes I have had these Louboutin pumps for almost twenty years and now they are back in circulation (or maybe they never left) Pack these staple Pants easy to slip on, not as form fitting as leggings , these and others Comfy pants are perfect Out to dinner? No problem with the essential Cashmere Tank and Jeweled cardi I’m not much for bling but I couldn’t resist this ever so slightly embellished Poncho Wear the tank under it or the v neck sweater if it’s cold enough to need your arms covered . Its the perfect go anywhere look. Trade out the heels for my new favorite Booties
Don’t forget the accessories in this case the Mandala ring one of the many Cocktail Rings and beautiful pieces you can travel with comfortably One last fun look ……… I took a chance on this one when I ran into these Zara Sequin Pants that are now on super sale They fit like super comfy stretchy jeans! (I just don’t know how to link them)Here is a quick shoe recap. The Gucci sneakers and Dior slides were purchased off https://www.therealreal.com/I was lucky to score the fantastic Art Deco Chanel bag from TheRealReal It’s also good to remember you can find wonderful straw pieces at your local markets. Jewelry is easy to pack and can really change up a look. This cranberry color is really acting like a neutral. I picked accents of blue for some looks, green for others and a more predictable black and cream for evening. Experiment with your own items. You might be surprised how many colors work for you.
