Sunscreens – good or bad?

We’ve been told for years to wear sunscreen to help prevent skin cancer as well as fight the signs of aging. I’ve already had skin cancer so this is important to me. And all sunscreens should work, right? 

Not necessarily. Over the years we’ve discovered there are different things to consider other than just the SPF.

Leather or not...

So many times while browsing Amazon, I will see things made out of vegan leather. I typically avoid that if I am looking for real leather. I already avoided anything made of PU leather, it just sounded nasty. Yeah…P U (stinky). LOL!

Don’t wear stripes – they make you look fat. WRONG!

Even when I was thin, I avoided horizontal stripes like the plague. Even when I was skinny (5′ 3″, 110#), I felt too fat. Fast forward almost 40 years and I don’t care anymore. Most of my merino clothes are solids, a far cry from the colorful synthetic leggings and graphic tees I was wearing. While I have a variety of colors, I really wanted more patterns/prints and they have been harder to find.
